Planning is well underway for the 2026 International Retreads Rally. Lots of exciting things will be happening. There are plans for 6 –7 rides going out each day. Some may be repeated, many will not. If you can’t get on the one you want, you’ll just have to plan on returning in 2027!
Something new at this year’s rally is our theme: Christmas in July. Monday evening we're having a Christmas party, complete with decorations, lights, trees, music, a white elephant gift exchange, games, Christmas cookies, ice cream and an ugly Christmas sweater contest. Not necessarily in that order.
We’re asking everyone who enjoys baking, to bring 3 dozen Christmas cookies for the party. These will taste so much better than store bought and there may even be some prizes. If you'd like to participate in the white elephant gift exchange, you’re asked to bring a gift valued at no more than $20. And the ugly Christmas sweater contest is self explanatory.
The Delmarva Retreads are again offering a free rally registration to the 2027 International Retread rally, for the Retread chapter that brings the most members to the 2026 International Rally.
Watch future newsletters for more information or check back here.
We are excited to host the International rally in 2026 and are looking forward to showing Retreads from around the country, what Western PA has to offer!
We look forward to seeing you in Western PA in 2026!
