I am interested in becoming New York State Director. I am presently president of the Lakers Kountry Klub for the last 2 years. My wife Barb is presently secretary of the Lakers.

Education: BS Degree in Business Administration, Graduated from Tusculum College, Greeneville Tennessee in Jan. 1965.

Family- Married on May 15th 1965

We have 2 boys, Jason and Timothy

We also have 2 granddaughters’ McKenzie and Jessica

I have been self employed since 1965 when I joined my family business, Shamel Milling Co. We manufacture feed for dairy, horse, swine and poultry. We have a farm supply store where we sell lawn and garden supplies, hardware, paint, grills, pet supplies, boots, fertilizer, seed etc. and farm supplies for the local farmers. Barb has been working with our company since the boys graduated from high school. Barb works in the office and in customer service.

My wife and I are present owners of a 2010 Cypress 5th wheel. This is our 2nd Newmar product. We joined the Kountry Klub and the Lakers in

2003. The Kountry Klub is the icing on the cake for owning an RV. The Kountry Klub members are a family of great people; it has been a pleasure socializing with the members at the different rallies.

I am told that I have been doing some the State Directors work because of the absence of the state and regional directors. I have been working with Linda in the Kountry Klub office keeping most of the communication going. I have to admit that Linda has helped me tremendously.
