WOW, what a pre-rally. Attending members were given royal hospitality by Betty and Doug Tilmann. With the able assistance of the Schumakers and the Wilts, attendees had a rally packed full of activities. Doug assisted in parking the coaches and all went well even though they had received several inches of rain a few nights before. As you can see their property provided a beautiful setting for evening campfires, grilled hamburgers and a pitch-in chili supper. Betty even took lemonade to campers at their coaches. Now that's service.
The chili was heated in a cauldron over the campfire. Everyone brought their own secret recipe of chili, and it was all mixed together for a brew that was delicious. In addition to fun on grounds, a tour was taken that allowed members to view a repair shop that reconstructs coaches that have had a fire or extensive body damage. It was amazing how the shop was able to make old coaches look like new.
As a final meal together the group traveled to "Between the Buns" which is a restaurant/bar that has good food and great live entertainment. The pre-rally was a great lead-in to the GLASS Rally that was held in Berrien Springs. The Hoosier Cruisers want to thank the Tilmanns for their great hospitality and hard work.
