Chad Heiser Posted November 13, 2023 Report Share Posted November 13, 2023 The 2024 West Coast HDT Rally is scheduled for June 10-17, 2024. The rally has opened up for registrations. An advance email went out Wednesday to past rally attendees and all those who signed up for the rally email list through the contact form on the rally website (HDTWCR.com). As of this morning (Monday) there were only three sites still available at Ambassador for potential rally attendees during the rally. I know this doesn't leave much room for those not on the rally email list, but it is the process we have in place. If you want to get advanced notice for future rallies, please sign up for the email list through the contact form on the website. Ambassador RV Resort is our host campground for the rally. It is a beautiful park and has huge sites that work nicely for our large rigs. Unfortunately they have a limited number of those sites available for short term rentals and this limits the number of rally attendees we can host. We discuss this every year at the rally and so far the consensus of the group is to keep using Ambassador as our host facility even though it limits the number of attendees. We always have a high number of first time rally attendees at each rally, so I know it isn't keeping people from the opportunity to attend, but it does limit our overall numbers. If you would like to attend the rally, but can't get a site at Ambassador, there are other options in the area. Canyon County Fairgrounds/O'Connor Field House on the other side of the interstate from where Ambassador is located has 15 Full Hook Up sites available. For Elks members, the Caldwell Elks Lodge, one exit west on the interstate from Ambassador, has 8 spaces with water and 30 amp power (they utilize the fairgrounds for a free dump station). There are also other commercial RV parks in the area. The Caldwell Campground & RV Park is off the next exit past the Elks Lodge and Abundant Life RV Park is also in the area on the same side of the interstate as the Fairgrounds, but a bit further east. You can also still contact Ambassador and get added to the wait list there once the available sites fill up. We are still 8 months away from the actual rally, so I am sure there will be cancellations for various reasons which will open up sites at Ambassador along the way. If you have any questions about the rally, feel free to ask or comment here. You can also contact me directly at chad@hdtwcr.com.

Chad Heiser Posted May 22 Author Report Share Posted May 22 Due to some late attendee cancellations (for various reasons), Ambassador RV Resort has some openings at the park for the 2024 West Coast Heavy Duty Truck Rally. The dates for the rally are June 10-17 (coming up fast) 2024. I know this is last minute, but I wanted to put it out to everyone that there are a small number of sites available if you want to attend the rally. Contact Ambassador RV Resort directly at 208-454-8584 to make your reservation. Once you do that, then go to the WCR website (see link below) and complete the registration form so I get the information I need from you. Ambassador is going to hold these sites at least through the end of the week for rally goers, but eventually they will be released to the general public. If you have an interest in attending the rally, call Ambassador. https://hdtwcr.com/wcr-registration/ Quote 2009 Volvo 670 with dinette/workstation sleeper - Walter 2017 DRV Mobile Suite 40KSSB4 with factory mods, dealer mods and personal mods - now in the RV graveyard 2022 DRV Full House MX450 with customized floor plan 2018 Polaris RZR Turbo S (fits in the garage) 2016 Smart Car (fits in the garage or gets flat towed behind the DRV when the RZR is in the garage) My First Solar Install Thread My Second Solar Install Thread & Photos and Documents Related to the build My MX450's solar, battery and inverter system - my biggest system yet! chadheiser.com West Coast HDT Rally Website Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roadfitter Posted July 14 Report Share Posted July 14 Hi Chad From an old poster, I think i might have one of the oldest T2 s in the group. Happy to see your still around, I've been lurking out here since the 2oo8s. I just don't post much any more. We started around 2005 in the MDT group and then graduated to the T2. I am now starting to follow your 2016 experience with your "T2" ac/hv. On our resent trip to n. Maine We blew out the high pressure ac hose which led to the compressor sezing up. We are home now and I'm going to do the job myself. Kenworth gave me a quote of $6000. What a bargin. and you know the answer to that. Thank You for your extensive post and a Thank You also to Scrap for all his help through the years!
