Welcome to PopUpPortal

Well, Phil (the groundhog) saw his shadow and now there will be six more weeks of winter weather. It feels like winter will never end! While you are waiting for the snows to melt, get out the calendar and maps to start planning your trips. Don’t forget all the PUP Rallies that are planned for this year including the International Rally in June. The International Rally is being planned as a "Destination" rally, not just a weekend camping trip. See the International Rally board for more information.

Thank you to all the members of PUP. Have a great year!

xx Tip and Tricks: Replying and Quotes | 10 Nov 09
09:51:25 by JoeCamper | Views: 660 | Comments: 0

You may have seen a shaded text area in some post and wondered what it is, why it's there, and how do you add it to your posts. These are Quote Boxes. They are intended to help you under stand the content of the current post by referencing information from a past post. And there are three ways to include Quote Boxes within your post. A Basic Reply, a Quoted Reply and an Authored Quote Reply.

To begin with, Quote Boxes should used sparingly and really only when the information you wish to quote is off the screen. In other words "Don't quote the last post"! Also, there is no need to quote the entire previous post, only the relevant information.

1) Basic Option: Reply to an existing thread by clicking on the top or bottom 'Reply' menu option on the forum page.




2) Quote Option: By using the 'Quote' button, you can manually add a quote to your post.

Click on the 'Insert Quote' button and type the quoted information.

xx “When is the Best Time to Winterize my Pop-Up?” - Before Winter! | 03 Nov 09
21:48:00 by JoeCamper | Views: 1623 | Comments: 0

Your pop-up camper is an investment you have made in the long term comfort and camping fun for your family.  [PU] Pop up campers are a nice compromise between the discomfort and bother of tent camping while retaining the feel of “roughing it”.  It is also a nice compromise in a more comfortable camping experience while avoiding the large costs of buying and maintaining a full sized camper.

But like any other type of camping equipment, you must think about maintenance to your pop-up each year so it will store safely during the down months when you will not be camping.  Many ask, “When is the best time to winterize my pop-up?”  The obvious answer is, “before winter”.  [:>(]  The primary goal of winterizing your pop-up is to prepare it to survive the cold winter months without damage.  But this annual ritual is also necessary to perform routine maintenance and to be sure that when you open that pop-up for your first camp out of the spring, it is ready to go.

The “when” question is more pertinent to your camping plans than to the weather.  When you have completed your last camp out of the fall and are ready to store the pop-up, that would be the idea
