Never been to the Boston one, The Springfield show is the biggest in NE from what I've read.

Hi,
Here's a link to the Springfield RV & Camping Show website, and another directly to the $2 off discount coupon.
I usually go by myself on Friday to check out the rigs without the kids. Usually we go again as a family on Sunday or Monday. Living less than 3 miles away has it's advantages. 
There is a possibility of another major snow storm hitting the Northeast this weekend (we're still trying to deal with the 2 feet dumped on us last weekend), so those planning on attending should check the weather ahead of time to find the best day(s) possible should the storm take aim at New England.
UPDATE NOTE (2/13): Currently the storm has an 80% chance of blowing out to sea, so hopefully the weekend will be unaffected by this weather event.
UPDATE NOTE (2/14): Now they're saying there may still be a chance of a significant snow event Saturday into Sunday. Geesh....gotta love New England weather! LOL

My husband and I will be attendng, probably Monday. We wanted to go on Saturday, which is when we usually go, but the weather looks like it will change that! We are nailing down the travel trailers that we are seriously looking at, (Currently a Keystone Cougar and a Lance are in the running). We're looking to buy in 2014 or at the latest 2015.

Parking was $5, a lot of mud! We went in a lot of trailers, and have narrowed down what we like (of course, our list grew a little!) Time to review and plan...who knows. Next year may be the year!
