Register Now For Our Fourth Annual

Western Gypsy Gathering Rally

Sponsored By The Gypsy Journal RV Travel Newspaper.

 

March 8-12, 2010

Yuma County Fairgrounds

Yuma , Arizona

 

Everyone loves our Annual Western Gypsy Gatherings,

so we're doing it again, but bigger and better, and in a new location!  

More seminars, more vendors, craft classes, the same camaraderie you enjoyed

so much, door prizes, and did we mention fun?  

Cost of this great rally will be just $110, which includes

four nights of camping, and admission to all rally events.  

 

Limited number of outdoor vendor spaces available - $165 *

Includes all rally fees, parking, and vendor space. Each vendor will be part of our vendor showcase

(an opportunity to tell rally attendees about your product or service). 

*Vendors, please note that we are limiting vendor registrations to one vendor for any type of product or service to

eliminate duplication. Please e-mail us at editor@gypsyjournal.net with details on what you will be selling before registering.

Because we do not accept more than one vendor for a product or service, vendor cancellations earlier than 30 days before

the rally are entitled to a 50% refund. Within the last 30 days there will be no refund. 

To register, send check to Gypsy Journal, 1400 Colorado St. #C-16, Boulder City, Nevada 89005,

or click the links below

Early bird arrivals welcome as of noon on March 7th at $15/night.
