Get out! Getgoing! SilverLevel Sponsors A Little History andCurrent Information on The Quartzsite Shows The Quartzsite RV Show opened the gates on January 28th, 1984 at the corner of Hwy 95 (now Central) and Business 10 (now Main Street) in Quartzsite, Arizona. With just 60 exhibitors and a small tent, the "new show in town" was still very popular since the majority of the people in Quartzsite we're RVers. In 1987 the show, now re-named The Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show , moved down the street to the Quartzsite Trailer Park which was situated directly across from the major attraction in town at that time, the Quartzsite Pow Wow. For the next several years The Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show enjoyed a tremendous run and huge crowds, with the largest crowds of all showing up during the Quartzsite Pow Wow. This new home for The Quartsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show lasted 10 years and the RV Show grew to a point where the current 3.5 acre show site could barely hold the number of exhibitors that were now vying for exhibit space at this popular annual event. In 1997 the "BIG TENT", as the show had become known, moved across the freeway to it's present home, just 1/2 mile South of I-10 on Hwy 95. ( now 700 S. Central) The new 20 acre facility, a former dry campground, was just what the doctor ordered for the expanding show. At that time in Quartzite, parking was almost impossible to find, legally. With the new Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show Show Grounds, the show was able to offer over 15 acres of public parking and the promoters, Kenny King and Mal Mallory, made the decision to offer their parking FREE to the public, while many other of the shows in town were already starting to charge to park. It was obviously a wise decision as in 1997, their first year at the new site, a major change in traffic patterns occurred. During the major show days at Quartzsite that year, the infamous Quartzsite traffic jam that once clogged Main Street from the freeway offramp on the East end of town, all the way to Four Corners, immediately shifted to the "South Side" of town. Luckily, the new Quartzite Shows Show Grounds had front and rear access and while the traffic was still terrible, the ability to flow the traffic through the Quartzsite Shows Show Grounds made it somewhat manageable. The new and permanent home of the Quartzsite Sports, Vacation & RV Show was a HUGE success! In 1998 the promoters decided to add a second show to their calendar and the First Annual Quartzsite Hobby, Craft & Gem Show was born. While the new Craft Show shared the same, beautiful show facility, it did not attain the instant success that the RV Show had enjoyed back in 1984. In addition, the new show barely used 50% of the, then, 30,000 sq. ft., fully carpeted structure. During the inaugural Quartzsite Hobby, Craft & Gem Show someone made the comment that maybe the promoters should consider bringing in a few hot rods and classic cars to fill up the unused portion of the huge structure and to attract more people to the Craft Show. The promoters took the suggestion into consideration, however they did not make a decision to go forward with the car show until the latter part of October, 1998. Hoping to attract 50 cars in their first year and with less than 90 days to get the job done, the promoters and a few volunteers descended on any and every car show in the Southwest, passing out literature and talking to car owners. They had also recently uploaded their new web site on the Internet and spent numerous hours e-mailing car clubs, car magazines and anyone else that was even remotely connected to hot rods, classic cars or car shows. By opening day they had received over 150 registrations and more that 120 cars actually attended the inaugural show. Not only did the new Quartzsite Rock & Roll Classic Car Show exceed all expectations, the crowd that showed up each day that weekend exceeded the entire attendance for the Quartzsite Hobby, Craft & Gem Show held the year prior, and that was a 9 day event! These beautiful and unique custom cars, hot rods, street rods, muscle cars and classic cars, combined with the Arts & Crafts, Hobby items, jewelry and gem displays, makes for a spectacular event and the future looks very bright for both shows. The promoters are shooting for 250+ cars for their 2004 show and with the huge crowd that was attracted, due to the popularity of the combined Hobby, Craft & Gem Show and Classic Car Show, the promoters expect the exhibitor list for the Craft Show to grow considerably as well. The Craft Show is now being referred to as "RV SHOW II" as the attendees are primarily RVers. If you cannot make the huge RV Show you can see an awful lots of RV and travel related exhibits plus 100's of hot rods and classics during the Craft/Car show. During the summer of 1998 the promoters finally settled a long and contentious litigation surrounding their purchase of the land. Once they were able to get free and clear title to their new Show Grounds, they immediately began upgrading the facility for the 1999 shows. In return for supplying the major portion of the water necessary to complete the re-paving project of Interstate 10 from the California border to Quartzsite, almost 18 acres of asphalt millings were laid down on the Quartsite Shows Show Grounds. This was a major improvement and nearly eliminated the number one exhibitor and customer complaint of the past; " It's too dusty !" Little did the promoters know at the time, but without the addition of this asphalt, there was no way that they would have been able to attract so many of the finest and most valuable hot rods, custom and classic cars in the Southwest to their new Classic Car Show in Quartzsite. Once the car owners heard that their cars would go inside the "BIG TENT" and that the Show Grounds and parking lot were under asphalt, the "too dusty" reputation of Quartzsite was a moot subject. The promoters also added a sewage treatment area to facilitate better service for the 150-200 exhibitor RVs camping on the Quartzsite Shows Show Grounds during the three shows. New and upgraded electrical service was added to the Northern and Southern borders of the Quartzsite Shows Show Grounds as well. We're talking about a major electrical upgrade here or as the head electrician from Trade Show Electric of Los Angeles, CA, who wires the show stated; "They're probably capable of powering up most of Quartzsite in a pinch!" Permanent water service was also installed throughout the Quartzsite Shows Show Grounds for the numerous food concessions and "live-aboard" exhibitors at the three shows. What was, only six months ago, a barren piece of desert is now a facility that is comparable to many fairgrounds across the country. Just prior to the 1999 shows, a foot-traffic gate was opened between the Quartzsite Shows Show Grounds and the 23 acre facility of The Tyson Wells Sell-A-Rama, the premier Rock, Gem and flea market in Quartzsite. Just like back in the old days when the RV Show was situated across from the Pow Wow, the Quartzsite Shows and Tyson Wells now share in the huge amount of traffic that each show attracts by allowing a safer and shorter route for the public to navigate between these two major venues. With Tyson's new Craft Show, Prospector's Panorama and the Car/Craft Show open all at the same time along with the expansion of the Rice Ranch selling area across Hwy 95, it gives the RVers a reason to extend their stay in the area. Many of the RV Show exhibitors have realized that the people that attend the Craft/Car show are also RVers and many have elected to stay on for the 5 day Hobby, Craft & Gem Show in 2006. The 2005 shows were definitely the biggest yet. Don't miss the Quartzsite Shows in 2006. It's ALL Happening Under the BIG TOP!" Casa de Quartzsite Canada Laguna Seca Raceway

Joel & Jerrie Crawford Joel Crawford is now on his eighth RV and he says they just keep getting better. He and his wife, Jerrie, along with their dog, Beau, love to hop in their 35-foot Type A Motorhome and take off on the spur of the moment. Its an easy escape. You dont have to pack or unpack, Joel says. We keep the RV loaded. We keep our clothes in there all the time, so we just put the perishables in and were gone. Its a convenient way to travel. Im retired, so most of the time we get away in the middle of the week when nobody else is getting away, Joel says. A lot of times we just go up into the mountains and hide for three or four days. Joel became an RV owner in his thirties when he got tired of borrowing his parents RV and decided it was time to get one of his own. And, over the years, he and Jerrie have traveled the southern half of the United States from coast to coast and up the east side of the Rockies and down the west side, border to border. Joel said the conveniences of their RV make it seem like they were never away from home. Its a trouble-free way to travel. The Crawfords 10 grandchildren are RVing fans, as well. Joel and Jerrie have taken them to Disney World, Opryland and Dollywood, to name just a few places. A lot of people think an RVs hard to drive, but thats just not true. You get used to it. For me, it was always there. It was in my blood. And dogs are fans of the RV, too. The Crawfords once had a dog named Chuck who had an amazing ability to read road signs, they say. Chuck would look out the window, and every time he saw a road sign for a rest area, hed jump off the seat and wait by the door, Joel says, laughing. And Beau just likes to get up on the dash and bark at the trucks. Joel & Jerrie Crawford, Lawrenceville, GA Tim & Lynne Polley Tim Polley has been RV camping his entire life. And now hes introducing a third generation of Polleys to the experience. I started RV camping with my parents. We started out with a folding camping trailer, then moved up to a 16-foot travel trailer and then to a 24-foot travel trailer with all the amenities, he says. And then I got married. My wife, Lynne, and I both love being outdoors. We started tent camping, but as we got older, it was taking an entire day for our weary bones to recover. So, about a year ago, we bought a folding camping trailer of our own. Its great for comfort. And it provides better protection from the weather. I dont want to forget to mention how important our dealer was in assisting us to pick the right trailer for us and helping take care of our service issues. They have been a very vital part of Lynnes and my RV experience. So far, theyve used their RV for trips through Iowa and Illinois. One highlight from their RV excursions so far? A two-week visit to Colorado. The kids are enjoying the RV as well. It keeps them active and stops em from being couch potatoes. We are able to bring our bikes along with us, and so we can all go bike riding together. Were able to teach our kids about the outdoors. And teach them how to rough it a little bit. With RVing, youre able to develop a closeness with people. At night, my wife and I like to walk around the campgrounds. You say hello to the people there and start having conversations with each otherwhere youre from, what you do for a living. And from those conversations, you form friendships. I think you talk to people at RV campgrounds more than you would in everyday life. Tim & Lynne Polley, Moline, IL Geula Resnick (and friends) Geula Resnicks RV is NOT going to the dogs. But it IS going to the dog shows. After all, she bought her RV three years ago with the express purpose of going to dog shows. Geula shows Rottweilers. She and her husband, David, own three: Monty, Riley and Charley, along with two Manchesters: Redi and Lola. Geula says the motivation behind getting their RV was simple: The convenience, she says. Being able to have all the dogs with methose were the main reasons we got an RV. For the people, its more comfortable. And for the dogs it is, too. Without an RV, our dogs would to travel to the shows in crates, but this way, we can let them have the run of the RV. With an RV, youre able to bring the comforts of home with youfor you and for your dogs. The Denver resident uses her 28-foot Type A Motorhome to take her dogs (as well as friends and their dogs) to shows throughout Colorado, New Mexico, Arkansas and Nebraska. She has been showing dogs for about five years now and loves the pastime. She says that owning an RV has made the experience all the easierand more enjoyable. When we take our RV with us, well usually stay on the show site. Everyone parks together. Its a very social atmosphere at dog shows. RVs are a very popular mode of transportation among the dog show crowd. Out of about 100 members of our local Rottweiler club, I would say about 15 of us own RVs. And at a good-sized dog show, youll probably see anywhere from 40 to 50 RVs there for the weekend. I know people who have ordered custom RVs just to accommodate their dogs. Geula Resnick (and friends), Denver, CO Steve & Becky Miller Steve Miller and his wife, Becky, are RV veterans and have the friendships to prove it. In 1989, they purchased their first folding camping trailer so they could take family trips with their four-year-old son. But they soon realized that RVing isnt just a convenient way to travel with all the comforts of home. Its also a great way to meet new people and forge lifelong friendships with other RVers. It was at a campground in Myrtle Beach, S.C., that Steve and Becky met and befriended Bill, his wife, Jean, and their two children. And through them, they met Jerry, his wife, Joyce, and their grandson. The group hit it off and have been friends ever since. We have become friends with people we would not have met if we did not camp, Steve says. People we didnt even know when we purchased our first small camper have now become important to us. In 1994, with their son then nine years old, the Millers traded for a slightly larger towable RV. It was perfect for their trips to the Fort Wilderness Resort at Disney World, Williamsburg, Va., and Busch Gardens parks. Camping in our pop-ups has afforded us opportunities to go places we otherwise would not have gone, Steve says. When their son was almost 15 years old, the Millers were ready for another upgrade. That's when they bought the larger folding camping trailer they have to this day. This camper hasn't gone to Atlanta, Disney or Williamsburg, but it has continued the tradition of enabling us to be with friends that we have grown closer to over the years. Steve summed his feelings up best when he said, Vacationing any other way simply would not have yielded the same quality of life results. Steve & Becky Miller, Asheboro, NC ©2005 Go RVing, Inc.
