I received this information today and thought that it would be of interest to the members.
Together we are doing a great job telling our members about the coming Area Rally in Shawnee. In fact, we may be doing so well that we have to cut-off registration if our numbers approach 750. Registration has been coming in fast and furious ….and, by borrowing electrical lines and receptacles from other sources we have determined that we can add an additional 100 hook-ups to our initial limit of 500 electrical sites. We now are guaranteeing electrical hook-ups for the first 600 who register.
We are having a good response from indoor exhibitors and, as expected, a slow response from dealers who would bring motor homes to our rally. We have many seminars scheduled … it could easily be more than last year. Besides the seminars presented by our exhibitors, FMCA’s Executive Director Don Eversmann and his wife Sharon will be with us. Don will be giving a number of seminars relating to FMCA, our chapters, and benefits to members. Sharon is again going to do a quilt seminar. Other subjects are about computers, digital cameras, writing for profit, making money on the Internet, vehicle crime awareness, Travel Oklahoma, and for a little added entertainment, a cowboy poet. We again have two sessions of Line Dancing scheduled.
Our area rally is still more than 8 weeks away and as of July 22, we had 480 registered. One hundred sixty (160) ladies have signed up for the Red Hat Luncheon and 28 men and women for golf. Fifty-one members registered live in twenty states other than in our south central area.
