Our Story
What started as a simple idea in 2021 has grown into one of Texas’s most vibrant RV communities. When founders Charles and Leslie Tyer purchased their Alliance RV, they envisioned a small “Meet and Greet” for fellow Alliance owners in Texas. That first gathering quickly evolved into something much bigger—the Texas Ally Rally.
From 30 RVs at our first rally in Fredericksburg to over 150 RVs today, our community has grown because of one simple truth: Alliance RV owners love connecting with each other. We’ve gathered in Kerrville, Jamaica Beach, Mineola, and beyond—each rally bringing new friendships, shared knowledge, and unforgettable memories under the big Texas sky.
Our Mission
Texas Allies LLC empowers RV owners through educational seminars and hands-on demonstrations while strengthening the communities we visit. As a 501(c)(3) nonprofit, we’re committed to giving back through collaborative fundraising events that support local organizations wherever we rally.
Over the years, our members have supported causes close to our hearts—from the David A. Ortiz Foundation to local animal shelters, community centers, youth programs, and volunteer fire departments. When Texas Ally Rally comes to town, we bring more than RVs. We bring a community that cares.
