"If you're looking for community on the road, then the Xscapers Bash is where you need to be!" Dave H.
When asked about their favorite part of this year's Xscapers Annual Bash, the most consistent response from attendees was COMMUNITY! From meeting new friends to catching up with old friends, everyone left with more connections than they arrived with!
We partied in head-to-toe neon, danced the night away to hulabilly jams, made time around the campfire to share our RVing stories, and even found time to learn from each other through several seminars and chats.
Each year's Annual Bash just gets better and better, incorporating some old favorites while welcoming new vendors, performers, speakers, and of course, new attendees!
Wheels are already spinning for next year's Xscapers Annual Bash, but in the meantime, tap into your RVing community some more at Escapade! Keep reading to learn more about the club's upcoming events, including Escapade, the club's annual gathering that's just over a month away!
