Today was the first day of the Escapade. We had a really enjoyable day. We started our day volunteering at hospitality selling donuts. We enjoyed our 3 hours doing so. After our tour in hospitality, we ventured over to the "market place" and went through the vendors. We did order new name badges and will pick them up tomorrow. Then we visited the "row". This is where the chapters are represented. We saw folks from our chapter, chapter 57, and chapters we have visited, chapters 29 & 42. We played "Row Bingo" and got our card filled up and entered the drawing. While we went through the market place, we did our normal walk through and look and came back to the rig to decide if we were going to buy anything. Looks like we will get a waterless cleaning kit for the exterior and a water softener. These are items we have been considering anyway, and the prices are better than they were at the last Good Sam Samboree where the same items were available. They are different vendors, so I'm sure that is part of it. Then we went to 1st timers orientation. We enjoyed this and as they say, your only a first timer once. It was good to see so many first timers. We then went to the official opening of the Escapade followed by an ice cream social. It was a very busy day. We then headed back to the rig for dinner so we could go to the door prize drawing and entertainment. I won a new pillow, which we will try and see how it feels. The entertainment was GREAT! Johnny Counterfit has a TERRIFIC show and I would recommend him to anyone. I have attached a couple of pictures from the day. Enjoy!
Travel safe, and I'll type more later!
