September Rally

Our September rally is returning to Cambria and the Volunteer Fire Company. As you know, Harold is not feeling well. He plans to come and go depending on how he feels. Please keep him in your prayers.

This month is our election of officers and planning for next year. Please consider helping.

2022 WILL BE THE GOLDEN ANNIVERSARY OF THE FINGERLAKERS.

Gordie Harper's near Newfane, NY

 A number of times in the past few years during rallies in Cambria, we ate at Gordie Harper's Bazaar. Was looking at this year --- it's "FOR SALE". $1.3 Million.

We may have to find an alternative.

August Rally - Weather = YUK! (8/23/2021)

As I write this, it's raining again! 

Patty Pritchard's father tried to mow the lawn where we might stay and his lawn mower left tracks. Think what 35,000 pound motor home might do.

SO, REGRETTABLY, WE ARE GOING TO CANCEL THE AUGUST RALLY

Those of you who know me, know I believe in the FMCA Mission: GET FOLKS OF SIMILAR INTERESTS TOGETHER AND HAVE FUN.

I am sorry, but COVID, Fred and Henri have different ideas.

See you in Cambria

August Rally Update (8/22/2021, 11 am)

 Watching New England Weather - It looks like Henri will come up the Connecticut River and stall over central Vermont.

Those who remember meteorology, know winds circulate counter-clockwise around a storm. That means water gets sucked off the Atlantic and dumped inland. How far - I don't know.

However, it could impact us next week end.

Patty and Brian will make any decisions or changes.

Stay tuned and stay safe.

August Rally

 We are planning our August rally in Hannibul, NY. It’s dry camping (=free camp fee!), and lets you exercise your generator. It only costs $25 for the whole weekend. It’s in Patty Pritchard’s parents yard. Details are on the tab above.

Address:

             544 State Route 176

             Hannibal, NY 13074

Property is for sale with:

FREEDOM REAL ESTATE in Hanibal if you want to view it.

However, It has some challenges. As we post this, it has rained for 4 days and Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday next week don't look good. Patty says the sites are very wet.

Our deadline is August 23rd. However, if weather prevents the fields a place to park our RV, we may have to cancel.

Keep checking here as we will post updates.

 

July Rally highlights




In July due to Harborfest cancellation, we headed to the available Oswego Speedway Campground. It was a joint rally with NY Centrals and PenNY Mixers. 25 members and guests attended.

Welcome new members:

· Richard and Carolyn Rank

· Lenny and Janice Scarano

· Returning members: Craig and Sharon Sylvester

Our hosts, Rich and Charlotte Burrell, Jim and Sherry Miller, Brian and Patty Pritchard put on a great weekend. We had gifts from the hosts, a fish fry, varied breakfasts and a chicken/pulled pork BBQ.

And…. The hosts returned a profit to chapter.

Great weekend!
