2020 Rally News

First, the June Rally:

• John Pangburn was informed by Himrod they're raising the fee for the Conservation Club to $30/night.  A brief poll during the February Florida Dinner indicated that wasn't acceptable. Not wanting to cancel the rally, Walt Linden contacted Genesee Country campground. He was able to book June 12-14, 2020. They make life easy and we can do the rest - especially if you help. I will look into a tour of the Mount Morris Dam for Saturday.

Even though we are returning for a repeat after the May Rally, it's a chance to get together - why we exist. 

Obviously, help will be appreciated.

Second, NEAR -

• YES-there is a Northeast Area Rally. John Traphagen, NEA President informed us he has signed a contract for Essex Junction, VT, on July 10-13.  He said entertainment will include Bob Dylan (Mr Tamborine Man, Blowing in the Wind, etc) and a famous whiskey collection. 

Since this is new news, there will be much more to follow.

Third, we need a wagon master for August

Fourth, FMCA International - 

• August 26-29, 2020,  Lincoln, NE
• Patty may need a substitute
•

January get together in Florida

Thanks to Dan and Carol Begy, on January 25th, 29 folks from the northeast area gathered for lunch at the Golden Coral a in Lakeland, FL. There were members from Fingerlakers, PenNY Mixers as well as John Traphagen (NEA President), Barbara Smith (past president), Donnie "O" from the Susquenango chapter. Sorry, if I missed including you.

It's good to get together, no matter what the venue. There are FMCA chapters that have monthly lunches - in lieu of rallies.

The restaurant was remodeling, which we didn't know. However, they did a nice job giving us a promised room even though we shared it with another group. Then they pampered us well.
Here are a few pictures.
