After several years of ownership and refurbishment, I'm going to try to attend the Amana Rallye in a few weeks. Though I've traveled a fair amount over the years, I haven't been 'camping' for at least 30 years since the pup tent days at the racetrack.
Does anyone know of a checklist of things to pack up to be comfortable? I surely can make one up by myself, but figured if someone had suggestions, why duplicate the efforts.
Thanks and looking forward to meeting people face to face in Amana.

George,
Can't wait to see you there. Full gas tanks and empty waste and not much in the water tank. There will be lots of water there.
Food in the refer, clean clothes, if you want to hang around with us. If you come by yourself we will feed you a meal or two.
Make sure you have a lug wrench, jack, and a spare tire that will hold air. Credit card or a pocket full of cash. Check all lights.
When done, you are ready to roll.
See you there.
Dan

I have been searching and found some lists on general RV sites. It's interesting that some of us are listing what we may need for spares and repairs, and others try to list items that may be helpful to our bodies instead of the coach!
I've always subscribed to the belief that if I carry a spare, it won't break down. However, you may be able to help someone else out of a bind, and karma is a beautiful thing.

If you have a "plan B" prepared and ready you will never need it. That is good karma.

Here you go. Stick got confused but remembered correctly, GMC Eastern
States.
On that page you'll find a presentation called The Apps in My Pocket,
Packing List, Pre-Travel Checklist and Basic Info for the GMC Copilot. It
doesn't get any better than that.
