$199
Xscapers Tucson Convergence
Pima County Fairgrounds, Tucson, AZ
March 5-13, 2022
Join your Xscapers family in beautiful Tucson, Arizona for a week of fun! Activities will range from live music and group meals to movie nights, trivia, and even an excursion into Tucson! We will make friends and celebrate with food and drinks. As with most Xscapers events, the daytime will be left free for those of us who work from the road to continue to do so. Most activities will take place at night and on the weekends. There are options for boondocking as well as full hook-up sites.
The Josh West Trio
Josh West was a top 20 contestant on season 12 of NBC's The Voice. He turned all four chairs during his blind audition and now his band, The Josh West Trio, will be kicking off the week at our arrival party.
The Status Crowes
Chuck and Michelle are a staple in the Xscapers community. As our house band, they have passionate following within our ranks. Join them on Sunday during the pot luck for great music and great times.
Pot Luck Brunch
Bring a brunch dish to share. You won't be able to feed every attendee, but if everyone brings a little something, there will be a little something for everyone. It's best to keep it simple (think fruit trays, doughnuts, a big plate of bacon, scrambled eggs, etc.) but if you want to go all out, no one is going to stop you! This event is also a great opportunity to show off your fanciest Bloody-Mary or memosa.
The Infamous Xscapers Lot Crawl
As a group, we'll move from one parking section to another, getting to know each other and doing rig walkthroughs (you don't have to open rig if you don't want to). Provide snacks, appetizers, or beverages outside of your rig if you would like folks to stop by. We do this in sections so that everyone has a chance to partake in the activities.
LaMesa RV Rig Tours
Our sponsor, LaMesa RV, will have some of their rigs set up at the fairgrounds starting on Thursday March 10th. Go check them out when you get a chance!
Movie Night
VENUE UPDATE: Due to a scheduling conflict we will be watching Tombstone at our event site. We will have a selection of food trucks available including Sonoran dogs, wraps, and kettle corn. Vegetarian options will be available.
Tanque Verda Swap Meet
On Friday night we will car pool to the Tanque Verde Swap Meet. At this market you will find merchandise booths, food and beverage vendors, and live music. There is a $1 entrance fee.
Tucson Scavenger Hunt
You and your team will have 2 hours to complete as many tasks as possible, gathering photo and video evidence along the way to share with the group later in the evening. More details coming soon.
Group Grill Out
Bring out your grills and tables if you got 'em! If you don't have a grill, don't worry, there will be plenty. Bring some foods/meats that are best cooked on the grill and show the rest of the group your talents. Not a grill master? No worries! Just bring one of your favorite dishes to share.
Farewell Dance Party
If there is one thing Xscapers know how to do, it's party. We will have a live DJ playing tunes to keep the party going well into the night. Get on your dancing shoes and get ready to boogey!

FAQs
There are restrooms and showers onsite.
Sure! We love kids! Just remember to keep your kids on a leash when they are out side of your RV. Wait, that’s pets. Pets on a leash, kids under supervision.
We welcome your furry friends! If they are outside your rig, they must be leashed at all times. Please pick up after your pets. There are two dog parks and a nature trail on-site for exercising your pets. Or kids.
We will have on-site trash dumpsters. Please break down all trash to make it as small as possible, especially boxes!
Recycling will be available for some items.
There will be no early arrival or late departures for this event. Please do not plan on arriving any earlier than noon on Saturday. Sunday check-out time is 11:00am
Dry camping sites are approximately 25 ft x 50 ft. You will need to make sure everything fits in this area. Only one RV/camping rig per site. Additional rigs will need to purchase additional tickets.
If you would like to park next to someone, please arrive at the same time and be registered for the same parking type. We will try our best to park you next to those you arrive with. Remember to make new friends and invite new people to join you!
Those in a full hook-up site won’t have any trouble. For those dry camping, there are dump stations and water stations available but please remember to arrive with your black tank empty and your water tank full.
Cell phone signal is strong for all major carriers.
There will be an address listed here about a week before the event to which you can have items shipped.
The main reasons for you to attend a convergence should be to have fun and meet other like-minded RVers. Networking and making potential business leads is a natural result of being part of an awesome community. We don’t want the Xscapers community to be bombarded or feel like they are a commodity. If the main reason you are wanting to attend an Xscapers event is to sell something, market to attendees, or simply to generate content we would ask that you contact us directly for corporate sponsorship.
If you need to make changes or cancel your registration, please email registration@escapees.com
No problem! Just email convergences@escapees.com with your question, and we’ll do our best to get you an answer.
Is an Xscapers Convergence Right for Me?
Xscapers was formed to bring Escapees RV Club back to its original roots of supporting RVers who are working from the road. At Convergences, you will find a community of active and free-spirited individuals with a passion for travel and adventure.
About 80% of Xscapers have full-time jobs they do remotely or seasonally. This means we typically don’t hold activities during work hours (with the exception of Annual Bash). Starting later in the day also means later nights. We have found that this can be a factor in deciding what event program people attend.
We try to give the most fun and entertainment value at an affordable price. One way we do that is by boondocking as much as possible. Our events are also a great way for newbie boondockers to learn from experienced ones. We try to divide our camping areas into those who have solar and those who want to run generators when possible.
Xscapers is an inclusive community, connected through the bond of RVing. This means we welcome people from all walks of life, no matter race, sexual orientation, political/religious views, lifestyle or RV type. Discrimination of any type will not be tolerated.

Covid-19 Precautions
Modified COVID-19 Precautions for Escapees Events – Effective For all Escapees Events After March 1, 2022
Gatherings and events are considered high-risk activities. As such, Escapees recommends all attendees 5 years and older get their primary series of COVID-19 vaccines and receive a booster dose, if eligible, before attending any club event. COVID-19 vaccines are effective at protecting organizers, staff, and attendees from getting seriously ill, getting hospitalized, and even dying. As with vaccines for other diseases, people who are up to date are optimally protected.
In addition, we strongly recommend that all attendees wear a face covering while indoors, wash or sanitize their hands frequently and maintain social distancing where possible. Unvaccinated individuals should wear a face covering at all times while indoors, per CDC guidance. Please be aware that there may still be certain circumstances where masks will be required. Attendees who choose to not wear a mask, are expected to be respectful and mindful of other participants wearing a face mask or covering.
Escapees will follow all state and/or local policies regarding COVID-19 and as such these policies may need be adjusted to comply with state/local mandates at the time of the event.
What we strongly recommend:
- We highly recommend all attendees be fully vaccinated and up to date with boosters.
- We highly recommend that attendees test for COVID-19 prior and during the event to reduce the unintentional spread of COVID-19.
- We highly recommend attendees wear masks any time they are indoors or are in close proximity of others.
- We highly recommend that attendees sanitize or wash their hands on a regular basis.
- We highly recommend that attendees resist hugging (even though we terribly miss those hugs!) and bump elbows or fists versus shaking hands.
What we will do:
- As often as possible, hold activities outside or in places with good airflow.
- Separate seating so that non-family members can distance themselves when feasible.
- Provide backup masks for those who forget theirs.
- Provide sanitizer or sanitation stations for good hygiene.
Escapees Event Liability Waiver
Each attendee will be required to sign an “Escapees Event Liability Waiver” at the time of event check-in and agree that they are in good health, have not tested positive for COVID-19 within the past 5 days, and without fever. In addition, all attendees must agree to follow precautions implemented by the Event staff and assume the inherent risks with voluntarily attending an Escapees event and associated activities.
Situations in which you may not attend an Escapees event
You may not attend this event if any of the following are true for you or anyone in your party, unless you have met CDC criteria for discontinuing self-isolation:
- Within 5 days before attending the event you have tested positive, or
- Within 48 hours before attending the event, you have experienced symptoms of COVID-19 (e.g., a fever of 100 or higher, cough, shortness of breath or difficulty breathing, chills, repeated shaking muscle pain/achiness, headache, sore throat, loss of taste or smell, nasal congestion, runny nose, vomiting, diarrhea, fatigue, or any other symptoms associated with COVID-19 identified by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention), whether or not you are vaccinated.
Attendees who have had COVID-19 within 5 days before attending the event are unfortunately not eligible to attend. Registered attendees may receive a full refund of their registration fee by emailing a dated copy of a positive test result to the appropriate event host or registrations@escapees.com.

By registering for this event, you are agreeing to the following:
- As an attendee, you assume all risk and danger relating to your personal property, RV and attendance at the event, whether occurring prior to, during, or after the event. In the event of loss or theft, no claim will be made upon Escapees, its volunteers, employees or agents.
- Volunteers may be directing and assisting you in your parking areas. However, it is the driver of the vehicle who is ultimately responsible for avoiding obstacles or dangerous situations and is solely responsible for any damage to one’s property or the property of others.
- As an attendee at this event, you are granting your permission to be filmed, videotaped, audiotaped, or photographed, and granting to Escapees RV Club the full use of any such recordings or images without compensation.
- By registering, you will also receive occasional email notifications of future Convergences; however, you can opt-out of these notifications at any time.
