Royale Coach Club

The Royale Coach Club is a chapter of the Family Motor Coach Association and exists for the enjoyment of its members.

We are a diverse group of people who love to travel, eat and have a good time. We gather twice a year in some part of our great country to catch up on old friendships and to make new ones. Each rally is hosted by a club member and includes visits to local attractions, catered meals, and lots of fellowship and fun.

The club began in 1998 when 31 Royale coaches met at Walt Disney World. Since then, we have grown to over 100 members. A newsletter is published after each rally that provides the opportunity to share photos, technical information, favorite recipes, and fond memories.

The Royale Coach Club is grateful and proud to have Millennium Luxury Coach, a Prevost Conversion Company as a sponsor, and is appreciative of the support provided at each rally by Prevost.

Total solar eclipse of April 8, 2024 over Mexico, the United States, and Canada

The next total solar eclipse in the Americas comes on April 8, 2024. Totality first touches Mexico, enters the United States at Texas, cuts a diagonal to Maine, and visits the maritime provinces of Canada. You can get free desktop or Zoom background maps for installing on your computer at
https://www.greatamericaneclipse.com/desktop-background/

Although it has been a long 38 years since the last U.S. total solar eclipse before 2017, it is a relatively short 7 years to the succeeding total solar eclipse in North America. Perhaps we should call this the Great North American Eclipse.

Winter Mini Rally

Winter Mini Rally

Hello Royale Coach Club Members!

Ron and I spent a couple days with Bo and Stanley Reahard in Sevierville, TN and came up with a plan for a mini rally. This rally will be at the same location as last January in Auburndale, FL but the name has changed since we were there. The RV park is now a member of CAMP MARGARITAVILLE!!

Arrival Date is Thursday January 19, 2023

Departure Date is Monday January 23, 2023

Rate: $557.80 ( 4 nights)

Sites: 80 foot by 35 foot, back-in, full hookups, crushed shell, charcoal grill and picnic table

All members would be responsible for calling the RV resort at 863-455-7335 and tell them you want one of the sites blocked off for the Royale Coach Club. Anyone wanting to come early or stay later would need to discuss that with the reservationist when you place your call. And I would appreciate an email sent to me at kallykitchings@icloud.com simply for headcount purposes.

I have blocked off 15 sites and they are first come first serve. These sites will only be held until November 18th so you need to make your reservations soon.

Once I get an accurate headcount I will try to locate a restaurant for a dinner during this time. Everyone would be responsible for their own cost of the meal. I will also put together a pot luck type meal for another night.

There will be no rally fees associated with this mini rally.

Hope to see a lot of my Royale family in January!!
