Happy fall ya’ll!                                                                                                 October 27, 2008

 

Can you tell we spent some time in Savannah on our way to the Region 5 rally? We had a great time and Doug and Linda made sure it was an official Newmar rally with a day of rain. Since none of melts I think we made out just fine. Thank you to our devoted region directors for a great time.

We kicked off the Florida rally season October 15-19 with the Emerald Koast Sandpipers at the Farmer’s Opry in Chumuckla. Sandy Wyatt and the Sawmill Band send a big hello and an invite to the White Sands Music Festival in April ’09. We will be leaving this Friday to attend the rallies in Ft. Pierce with the Manatees; November 3-6, Sea Turtles; 7-10, and the Pelicans; 17-20. They are all at Treasure Cove RV Resort.

We have a luncheon scheduled on Saturday, November 1st at Ruby Tuesday’s on Commerce Drive, in Lake City at Hwy 90 and I-75 around noon if anyone is in the area and hasn’t heard that bit of news PLEASE join us. We are working to build up the FL Aires again and get them re-instated. Any and all help in this area is greatly appreciated. We look forward to seeing many friends and making lots of new ones at the rallies.  

We are still setting some plans for the State rally in late April early May 2009 so keep watching for more news. The dates are; early bird April 27-28 and the rally will start Wednesday April 29 in the late afternoon, early evening and end after breakfast on Sunday May 3rd. We hope many of you will be planning to join us.

We pray you are all well. Take care and be safe on the road. Keep in touch; let us know if there is anything we need to add to the web-site for you.

 

See you soon,

Florida Sea Turtles - September

 

How time flies when you’re having fun. It seems like only yesterday that Sarah and I left for the summer. We left on June 22 to spend the summer up north and to take our granddaughters to Cape Cod. A good time was had by all. We returned on August 27 to find our yard about 12 in. high. The man we hired to take care of it had a heart problem and it did not cut it for a month. What a job to get it back to normal.

Enough about us. We hope that each and every one of you has had a great summer with exciting and safe travel.

We kick off our fall rally season at Treasure Coast RV Park in FT. Pierce, November 7-10, 2008. Linda and Eric Kuegler (16192) are your hosts 772-229-1693. They have a fun filled rally planned with a guest speaker and the Stuart Air Show as some of the things to keep us busy.

In December we meet at the Sun-N-Fun in Sarasota on the 5th thru the 8th.  This will be our annual Christmas party and Election of 2009 Officers. Full agenda will be forwarded by e-mail.

As you know our Chapter by-laws require an election of officers each year. I’m asking each and every member to consider serving as a Chapter Officer. It would be great to have a ballot election.

We also have a full slate of Rally’s planned for 2009 at various locations all around the State. Again I’m asking each member to consider hosting and/or co-hosting a rally. We need a host and co-host for the February, March, November and December outings. Looking forward to a positive response to the above request.

 

See you in November,

Tom and Sarah Mayne, Presidents

Florida Manatees - September

As we do not have Konnection articles to keep us updated, I decided that an email message may assist us in staying in touch.

Our next rally in scheduled for Treasure Coast RV Park in Ft Pierce on Nov 3 - 6, 2008. The rally is limited to 30 coaches so get your reservation fee of $47 into Bev Englar ASAP. For more info contact hosts Doolittle's and Magown's.

By now, I am sure that you have heard that the Newmar Konnection will not be published for awhile. The sale of RV's is down and is impacting manufacturers. Newmar has only produced coaches that have been already sold to dealers so is in better shape than most. However, they have had to cut back and the Kountry Klub has also felt this cut. So, be
patient and continue to support the Klub through attendance at rallies, lunches, etc.

At our November rally we will nominate members for chapter officers. Our current officers have indicated that they will serve another year so our own Phil Barber will place them into nomination and hopefully entertain us with his nomination "process". Phil, I am again putting you on the stop to create another masterpiece! If other members wish
to serve, they can be nominated at this rally. Our vote will take place at the December rally.

As far as health of our members, the only update I have is the one sent by Pat Callendar on her recovery from knee surgery. For those of you that have had health problems, may God bless you and assist in your healing process. If you know of or have a health issue and wish our prayers, please let me know.

We like most, we have limited our travels to the midwest visiting family members and of course, our grandchildren. Like I have told others, the first fuel fill-up was the worst. After that, the numbers are expected so it doesn't hurt as much!! Right!! I have slowed down to 55 MPH and it seems to have helped in increasing my mileage. Enjoy your travels as we know not what will happen in the future so enjoy your life now!

Keep safe and enjoy RVing. We will see you at the next rally.

Clyde and Roselind Rosten
President




Manatees New Year's Eve Rally

December 30-January 3

Olde Mill Stream

Umatilla, FL

I'd like to announce this year's New Years Eve rally.  It will, again, be hosted by the Burnettes and Swezeys; and, again, it will be at Olde Mill Stream in Umatilla.  As a reminder, there is a 40-pound weight limit for dogs, and it is VERY STRICTLY ENFORCED.  The facilities will include water and electric, but NO SEWER - the campground does have 2 dump stations.  There will be no other rally for the weekends preceding/following ours, so early or late arrival/departures will be okay.  

The address, etc as follows:   Olde Mill Stream 1000 North Central Ave Umatilla, FL 32784 352-669-3141 www.oldemillstreamrv.com      There've been a few price increases, so we've had to set a rally rate of $200/coach. The New Years Rally will be four nights, will begin on Tuesday, 12/30, and will end on Saturday, 1/3/09. 

The itinerary is:

12/30    social 'hour' with sandwich/chips; business meeting

12/31    continental breakfast; catered dinner; welcome in the new year at 23:59:59

01/01    catered brunch

01/02    pancake breakfast; catered dinner

01/03    continental breakfast  We will leave the morning of January 3, 2009. 

We found last year that the rec hall will comfortably accommodate 48 people, using 6 tables of 8 diners, so we are opening the rally to the first 24 couples that sign up.  As of today, the following have indicated an intention to join us:  

Swezey        Burnette         Rosten         Englar          Magown          +Guest         Potts           + Lobrano        Tibbetts Moore          Gafner           Callendar Kadelsik        Crane                   Duff            Kasperski        Williams Taurasi         Young            Forrest         

Any questions, please feel free to call/email us.  We hope to see you there.  Happy Thanksgiving to all ---   Connie and Fletcher - swezey@earthlink.net  Karen and Steve -  oladyk@att.net

2009 Florida State Rally

April 29-May 3

Grand Lake RV & Golf Resort

Orange Lake, Florida

 
I know we have been telling you to save the first week of April for the rally, however when we met with the Resort there had been a change in administration and the dates were no longer available. We looked through the NKK calendar and hope we found a wonderful opportunity to have the rally a bit later in the Spring. We have early bird dates of April 27 & 28 (Monday & Tuesday) with the rally starting on April 29 (Wednesday) and wrapping up on Sunday May 3rd. The location is Grand Lakes RV & Golf Resort www.grandlakeresort.com in Ocala, Orange Lake, or Citra, depending on where you look and who you ask. But it very easy to find since it is only 3 miles off Interstate 75 at exit 368. We hope that you will be able to join us for an exciting and fun rally. We will send out all of the information in the next few weeks. We can't wait to see you at Region 5 and then at the chapter rallies in Oct. & Nov. Be careful coming back South, see you soon! Don't forget to keep looking at the web-site to stay up to date.
