FYI, the RV show in Columbia, SC will be held a the SC State Fairgrounds on the weekend of February 14 to 16.  I will be going, so if anyone else from the board will be there let me know.  I haven t met anyone from the PUT board yet.....  At the show last year I bought an AAR for the Jayco.  Now that I have upgraded, I will again be in search of an AAR for the Rockwood.

Dear Gamecock Camper - Wish we could come to the Columbia RV show, but we cannot fit it into our schedule this year.  We will try for next year, I hope I remember.  My DH and I LOVE South Carolina and are Gamecock fans!  Our DD went to the USC in the early 90 s and we fell in love with the town and the people.[]

Oh my gosh, so glad to hear the dates early! [] We are DEFINATELY going this year.  I have tried to go for the last couple of years, missed it last year due to not paying attention to dates, year before due to illness.  Thanks SO much for posting this.    Let us know when your going-we will probably be going on Saturday since they may close early Friday and we couldn t go til after 4, and Sundays are our busiest day.  
 
 Anyone who has gone to the Cola., SC RV show before-any good buys on " toys" ?  We are in the market for a screen room, but since our camper is " mature" , it has unique sizes on the existing awning.  Might have to order that from Weimers RV.  We are also looking for a BAL leveler, scissor jacks, and a sway control!  Geez, looks like our " wish"  list is as long as our " where we want to camp"  list![]  Since we want toys, but would rather spend our $ on camping rather than stuff, we are always looking for bargains.

Camphost, I agree that this city is a very nice one.  I came to Columbia in 1977, and except for a 2 year period I have been here ever since.  I sure wish that I d see my Gamecock sports teams get it together.  The men s baseball team went pretty far last year, the soccer team is always good, the woman s basketball is over-all doing well, but the football team and men s basketball teams have just not made it into the big-time yet.  The men s basketball game against Florida (# 6 in the national polls) was probably the best game they played this year, but they lost  by 2 points, so just a moral victory.... which won t get you far.
 
 Slowpez, I m not sure when I m going yet either.  But will be looking for an AAR as our first camping trip this year is planned for the weekend of March 7th.
 
 SCpreacherswife,  I m not sure about finding bargains on any of the add ons you mentioned.  Last year I talked to the Jayco dealer (Master s RV) and was able to order an AAR that was delivered via UPS directly to my front door.  If you can t find what you want from the RV show, look on e-bay as I ve found a couple of good buys.  I ll probably be at the show on Friday or Saturday (or maybe both days)..... I will see as the date nears.
