Our history lessons taught us that Ponce de Leon went there searching for the fountain of youth, and it claims to be the oldest city in the US. Relive that youth quest with our
Sunshine Thor Rally in historic St Augustine! This will be our 7th semi-annual gathering!
Dates are Wednesday, October 2nd to Sunday, October 6th, four nights. The location will be Compass RV Resort, 1505 State Rd 207, not too far from the old town center. We’re starting earlier in the week so we can see the sites and have plenty of group time over the weekend. We realize some will want to arrive on Friday, and some will arrive earlier and/or stay later.
Our rally rate is $58.50/night and you can extend that rate for a couple of days before, after or both. The park has a 10/9.5/10 Good Sam rating. For reservations, call the park at (904) 824-3574 and ask for Barbara. Others can take your information and deposit, but Barbara is our coordinator.
We booked site 16, and Barbara has placed us near the clubhouse, pool and front entrance. First come, first served for reservations. If you wait until August to make your reservation, you risk being placed farther away from the group. They take a deposit equal to the first night, then balance at check in. Please post or PM me that you are in!
There is a great trolley system in St Augustine, and a shuttle will take you from the campground office to the trolley starting point in the morning and bring you back in the afternoon! Discounted passes available at the campground, are good for 3 days. Best of all, you avoid the hassle and expense of parking.
Details on the Friday evening potluck and Saturday’s agenda will follow later. Like our previous rallies, there is no entertainment or meals provided, but there are no rally fees, either. Come and find out if that “Fountain of Youth” thing is real or just a cruel hoax!
