. Nice surprise for those who are in them.
We will be first timers to the Goshen Rally and really looking forward to it .. I am told that the Service hook-ups are behind the RV's. I know that the length of the OEM 50 amp electrical cord will not reach these service hook-up stations. At least on the Cyclones. It appears that we will have 50 Amp service in the SO section but I didn't necessarly want to buy a full length 50 amp extention cord just for one trip and would hate to reduce down to a 30 amp extention... Can anybody tell me what they have done in past rally's there... Thanks in advance.

We have been there twice and had no problem with the electric.We have a bighorn and the plug is on the side in the back. We did have to buy more sewer hose!!

Trace, here's another map. Took a bit to find it, but it's easier to see.
Glad to know that the South Campground will have 50A, so I won't have to use an adapter. I've got 35 feet of Rhinoflex hose and 50 feet of water line, so hooking up should be no problem. One question: are the sites dirt, gravel, or concrete?

Cool! That's what we're sitting on at our seasonal site, so I'll bring along my wood 2x10 tire pads when we leave here.
Duane - they are behind the RV. Not near the back on the side of the RV but literally, behind your ramp door in most cases. That said, some are offset from center of lot, still, all the way to the back.
Guidance I'd give anyone needed to know how much power cord, sewer hose or water hose is: enough to reach the center of the back window, then 6 feet more. For me, I used a 35' water hose and it reached fine. My UDC is right behind the storage compartment. Those who have power cord reels will not need an extension. Those whose power cord is stored inside the rear cap and those whose power receptacle is on the side but near the back - also, not a problem, no extension needed. Sewer, that's a toughy - bring it all! I'd say plan on 35 feet and hope for 30.

There are a couple of infield sites that are 50 amp capable but NOT when all infield sites are in use. All infield sites will be in use, so 30 amp outlets should be used by all who camp there. They are full-hookup as well. Never stayed in one, so this will be interesting. Should work out fine though as thousands have went before us in these sites over the years.

Infield (IF), South (SO), Draft Horse Barn (DH), Water/Electric (WE) and Water/Electric Temp (WE Temp) are all grass pads.
Northwest (NW) are gravel pads with grass in between sites.
Maple Street (MS) are gravel pads with gravel (no grass at all) in between sites.

I foresee a run on "stinky slinkys" in the near future...
Site maps have been posted to post 3 of this directory thread (link). Note that the South Campground map is the most recent (23-May) and take into account, the reconfiguration of that area. If you were in the South CG in 2009, your site location has likely been moved. Still the same number, just relocated when they renumbered.
