RVing Women, brace yourselves as you discover the wonder, thrills and challenges of West Virginia and rafting on the New River. You will be able to choose your raft trip: the Upper New River or the Lower New River.
The Lower New River raft trip through the big water canyon will take us through scores of rapids. We will also have lots of time for surfing, swimming and river antics. A professional guide travels with each 14-foot raft. The rafts seat six to seven people. From class II warm-ups to world class IV whitewater, this trip is exciting but still suitable for adventurous first timers. A shore lunch is provided.
The Upper New River raft trip takes passengers through a mild stretch of whitewater. This is a great place to get your newbie feet wet. Small rafts of one or two people is the most enjoyed way of doing this trip. The gentle and playful waves and plenty of calm waters permit time for enjoying the scenery. We will have plenty of opportunities for swimming, bird watching, picture taking, or just plain tuning out. A shore lunch is provided.
Our campground for this four day adventure will be the New River Gorge RV Park and Campground on Milroy Grose Road in Lansing. We will be close to several quaint West Virginia towns, such as Fayetteville and Summerville. Fayetteville has been named one of the top-10 coolest small towns in the U.S. by Budget Traveler Magazine.
The days when we are not rafting will be filled with a variety of activities. These may include campfires, happy hours, horseback riding, caving, rock climbing, fishing, massage, sightseeing, shopping, kayaking, biking, hiking, paintball, ATV tours and a zip line canopy tour.

Monday: Our rally will begin with a social hour and activity (around 4 p.m.) and a meal provided by your hosts.
Tuesday: We will go into historic Fayetteville for some shopping. Expect to find wonderful examples of hand-crafted items made in West Virginia at Tamarak. Our day will also include a trip to the visitor's center for views of the New River George and New Bridge, as well as viewing a short movie about the area. We will end the day with an optional buffet at Smokey's On The Gorge. This restaurant is listed as a top-10 place nationwide in Food Network's Best Of the Best.
Wednesday: This is raft day! You choose your adventure: the calm, peaceful and beautiful Upper New River experience or the more challenging whitewater rapids experience of the Lower New River. We will be using Class VI Mountain River outfitters. They are the only West Virginia outfitter awarded "Best Adventure Travel Company on Earth" by National Geographic Adventure (January 2009). After a day on the water, with lunch provided, you will love Pies & Pints for dinner. Yum! Yum!
Thursday: You get to choose your activity for this day: more rafting or hiking, biking, kayaking, paint ball, zip line canopy tour, ATV tour, horseback riding, caving, rock climbing, fishing, massage or local shopping.

Country Village RV Park. The theme for
this rally is Anatomy of a Murder--51 Years Later. Anatomy of a Murder was filmed in the Upper Peninsula of
Michigan in 1959. It was adapted from the best-selling novel of the same name
written by local attorney and State Supreme Court Justice John Voelker, using
the pen name Robert Traver.
Voelker based the story on a trial in
which he successfully defended a man accused of murder. The novel raised
questions about the insanity defense, witness coaching and the prosecution of
rape.
Otto Preminger, director of the film,
challenged censorship guidelines in a number of ways that were startling for
the time. The film was one of the first to use jazz throughout and won a Grammy
for the soundtrack by Duke Ellington. The movie starred Jimmy Stewart, Eve
Arden, Lee Remick, Kathryn Grant Crosby, George C. Scott, and Ben Gazzara.
The American Bar Association has included
this movie in its list of the twelve best trial movies of all time.
Join us for a weekend celebrating good
friends and reminiscing about this extraordinary film. If you can't arrive by
Thursday, please join us whenever you can.
On Thursday. we will have a meet and greet beginning at
5 p.m. (bring your own drink and a finger-food snack to share).
Afterwards, we will view the PBS documentary Anatomy '59: The Making of a
Classic Motion Picture.
Plan
on doing some homework before you arrive: gather some friends and watch a video
of Anatomy of a Murder.
The weekend's events will have so much more meaning if you have recently viewed
the film.
On Friday, we will enjoy a lunch at Globe
Printing, home of the historic Anatomy of a Murder Signature Wall. In 1959, the
Roosevelt Supper Club occupied the space where Globe Printing now stands. The
club basement was a popular hangout for the film folks, a place where they
could gather to be away from adoring fans and the pressures of filming. One
night, in a gesture of appreciation, cast and crew placed their autographs on
the wall. Stacey Willey, owner of Globe Printing and a collector of Anatomy
of a Murder memorabilia,
will be our host.
After lunch, we will carpool to the Michigamme Museum to see displays about
the author and the filming itself. We will have dinner at Mt. Shasta Restaurant
in Michigamme. Many dancing scenes in the movie were filmed at this location.
We will carpool Saturday afternoon to Big
Bay to visit the Lumberjack Tavern, the location of the actual murder, and
Thunder Bay Inn, a restaurant/pub built by the Hollywood crew in 1959 because
the Lumberjack Tavern was too small for filming.Our itinerary will include Perkins Park where the alleged
assault took place and where the closing scenes of the movie were filmed.
Sunday will be a free day to explore on
your own. You may want to take a walking tour of downtown Ishpeming (a brochure
will be available) or stop in at the Congress Lounge and Pizza, decorated with
photos from the filming; the owner was a good fishing buddy of John Voelker's
and is an avid fan of the movie.
Country Village RV Park is the newest,
full-service RV park in the Upper Peninsula and has cable TV at most sites,

Because of this very reasonable cancellation policy, do make a reservation if
there is any chance you might be attending.
There will be so much to do at this rally,
and we know you will want more time for sightseeing. Leave crowds of people and
traffic jams and summer's heat and humidity behind and schedule a few extra
days to explore the Upper Peninsula, or make a return visit. If you like Maine, you
