Galax Rally

On the weekend of July 19 - 21, Dogwood will hold its next rally at the Cool Breeze Campground near Galax, VA.  This is a quaint campground that is a favorite of bluegrass music lovers and other RV clubs.  The campground has nice amenities, as well as being close to Galax and the parkway.  

On Friday night there is a live radio broadcast from the Rex Theater in Galax. The show begins at 8:00 pm and tickets are on a first come first serve basis.  

On Saturday there is a barbecue cook off in Galax.  Click here for more information.  

Also, at 12:00 pm and 7:00 pm on Saturday there are concerts at the Blue Ridge Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway (click here to link to their web site). 

I'm sure we will have a busy weekend with plenty of activities in the Blue Ridge Mountains. More information will be provided in your welcome bags as it becomes available.  The hosts for the rally are Steve & Susan Sohles and Dennis & Joyce Reid.
