      Hi Karen,

      How cool that you are traveling at 71!

      We hope to acquire a full-size van for a raffle drawing in January. If we get that van, then those tickets will be sold online. This is a fund raiser for HOWA. Be watching for that announcement.

      The minivan build that we just completed will be granted based on individuals’ completed Applications of Assistance. That is, this is not like a drawing or raffle that you can “win;” rather it’s based upon an applicant’s need. Go here for that information and the Application for Assistance … https://homesonwheelsalliance.org/programs/

      If your situation is such that you can’t afford to build out your current minivan, you may want to apply for the minivan home that’s available, and offer your current minivan in partial trade when you submit your Application for Assistance. We could then build out your current minivan for someone else. Just an idea for you to consider.

      Another option is to apply for a build out of your current minivan at Jamie’s Van Build Fest in November … see https://www.enigmaticnomadics.com/

      Safe travels!

    Hi Suanne, I am a 61-year-old female Canadian who loves the concept of HOWA!! I would love to attend some of your gatherings and am wondering if there are other Canadians who attend? I am looking to travel with someone from Canada, (caravaning) to the next RTR or WRTR. Do you have any suggestions on how I might go about finding these folks?
    Thanks very much!

      Rhonda, There are many Canadians that attend the RTRs! You will be in great company. If you want to find someone to caravan with, I suggest you go to the CRVL Forum and search for Canadians traveling to the RTR. You will be more likely to find someone a little later in the fall. You could also join the Women’s RTR 2018 and beyond Facebook group. You will meet many women that attend the WRTR and may be interested in caravaning. Safe and Happy Travels!
