Hey Dad,
I’m a little bit behind the ball here on this first Familyman Rally. I just visited Cornerstone Campground last week and it is AMAZING!!! The campground is easy to find and there are many restaurants in the area, a Wal-Mart nearby, and some things to see while you‘re here. This is going to be a great weekend and I‘m so glad you‘ll be here.
Here’s the schedule for the weekend.
Familyman Rally Schedule 9/16-18
*Note: We’ll have lots to do and lots of scheduled fun time, but everything is optional. If you just want to eat with us and sit around the campfire or fish, you’re more than welcome to do as much or as little as you like. I just want it to be a fun family weekend for you AND your family.

Again, we’re just starting to plan and are open to suggestions for a great Familyman Rally.

Todd,
Is this for the whole family, or is it just for the dads. I don’t want to assume, but it sounds like everyone can come.

April,
It’s for the WHOLE family!!!!!!
Hi Todd!
Will you include a super cool Dad/Family message delivered by the Familyman?
Tod
You bet…and it will be short. 🙂 Actually, we might do a couple of short things…but mostly fun and family stuff.
What if you have big family? How many people are allowed on a site? We have so much trouble anymore finding campgrounds that don’t charge us an extra $5 a night per kid over 2 or 4 kids. We have ten kids (and a 32 ft camper that fits us all), but wondering if we can still come at that rate?
Hi Todd,
Just checking in for more details about the camp. We spoke briefly last month in Portland and still have the FamilyMan Rally as our first scheduled event on our 3-month cross-county roadschooling trip! It’s a long drive along the Oregon Trail, so just making sure the rally is still planned as scheduled. We are super-excited to come enjoy some fun & fellowship in Indiana. Keep an eye out for the Louis & Clark Griswold RV….
