On January 31st, we got together for our annual pot luck dinner at Dogwood Mobile Home park in Bushnell, FL. Arranged by Joe, Ellie and Linda Van Haelst, we had 55 folks attending with most showing up shortly after noon.
After socializing, Ellie started us off with a prayer. Then Charlie Kline asked for a moment of silence for Ola Williams and Deroy Putman who passed away this past fall.
During dinner, Tom Roule introduced special guests, Bill Conway (past president of the Northeast Area) and his wife Pat, Paul DuBois (Northeast Area 1st vice president), Ed Hoag (Northeast Area 3rd vice president) and his wife Lori and Eleanor Rizzi (Northeast Area treasurer) and her husband Frank.
After dinner, Paul Du Bois updated us on recent events in the Northeast Area. Considerable
progress is being made for the Northeast Area rally in Essex Junction, VT as well as possible changes to New York laws allowing out of state dealers and, therefore, future conventions in New York. Sam Allen is not running for Northeast Area president due to Pat’s health. Paul will be running for the office.
After dinner, we continued to socialize, and complain about the 60 degree temperatures, fully realizing no one up north was sympathetic.
It sure was good to get together and we hope to see everyone soon. Thank you, Joe, Ellie, and Linda and see you same place January 30th , 2010.
