RV Lots (Lots 100e, 50, R, Olsen Park, Penberthy)

We welcome all visitors to our campus and hope that you have a wonderful experience in the RV lots when you return to campus for Aggie football.  Our goal is to provide a fun, friendly and safe environment for all.  To achieve our goal, we ask for and need the help of every RV owner and their guests.  The best way to ensure a great experience for all is to simply be a good neighbor.

Part of being a good neighbor means minimizing noise and disruption for others.  If you have a loud generator, please install a manufacturer approved muffler or use a cover that will minimize the noise.  You should not be able to hear your generator much beyond the proximity of your RV and the RV's on either side of you.  Try to direct generator exhaust towards an open area like an empty parking space or drive lane and always away from your immediate neighbor.
Being a good neighbor is also recognizing and accepting the fact that you are in a parking lot that is converted 6-7 weekends per year into a temporary RV lot.  Since these converted parking lots do not have electrical hook-ups, everyone will be using a generator that will produce some noise whether it is internal to the RV or portable. Please expect some noise, some BBQ smoke and extra traffic.  We ask that you be reasonable in your expectations and tolerant of your neighbors.

If everyone will do their part on being a good neighbor, everyone will have another great RV experience this year for Aggie football weekends.
