Hoosier Cruiser Winter Gather Planned

It’s that time of year again and the weather here in Florida has been great.  Sandy and I are looking forward to the Hoosier Cruisers winter gathering.  For all you snowbirds and anyone traveling in the Florida area we will have a Hoosier Cruisers luncheon on Thursday February 12th from 11:00-3:00p.m. at  Sun N’ Fun RV resort in Sarasota, Florida.  Many of you will remember the wonderful luncheon served the last couple of years by the resort staff.   If any of you would like to come for a few days just call the office and ask for Elaine.  The park will be fairly full but short stays may be possible.  Identify yourselves as Hoosier Cruisers and it may help.  Feel free to contact me via e-mail or phone and I’ll do all I can to assist you.  We will need a head count to make adequate arraignments so let me know as soon as you can if you can make it.  The cost will be $11.00ea.  which includes gratuity.  We will also be sending an e-mail with this information as well.  The following address and number are for the resort.   Hope to see you all soon, Rick and Sandy Hahn.

Member Update

Received word from Carol Robison regarding her husband Pat.  Pat had a total hip replacement last July.  After the surgery he developed an infection in the artificial joint that has required 6 surgeries to correct, 4 of those have occurred since December.  Pat is still struggling with the infection and its associated problems.  Please keep Pat and Carol in your thoughts and prayers.

Attention Hoosier Cruisers

Can you believe that we are half way through January and on top of that it is 2015!!!  It won’t be long and the snow and cold will have gone and Spring Time will be here along with a new Rally Season.  Wanted to convey a few thoughts to get us all started.

DUES
It has been brought to my attention that there are some who have not renewed their memberships yet.  Check your records to see if your dues are current.  There is a membership/renewal form on the blog [http://hoosiercruisers.blogspot.com] – right column.  Yearly dues are $15.00.  Mail your completed form with dues to: Betty Tilmann, 58965 C.R. 1, Elkhart, IN 46517  If you have any questions or just can’t remember  you can contact our Secretary, Betty Tilmann by email at betztil@yahoo.com or phone at 574-261-1612.

Illness / Passing of a member
Should you receive notice that a member or former member has become ill or have passed on please get that information to one of the officers or myself.  We want to keep all of you informed as well as to send them cards etc. from Hoosier Crusiers.

Hoosier Cruiser Winter Gathering
The Winter Gathering for Hoosier Cruisers again will be held at Sun N’ Fun RV resort in Sarasota, Florida on February 12th between 11:00 AM and 3:00 PM.  If you have attended the event before you know how good it is, if this will be your first time you are in for a treat.  For directions please see the notice on the blog.  For questions contact Rick Hahn by email at rlhahn1@gmail.com or phone 260-615-1816.

GLAMARAMA 2015

Yes it is only the middle of January but time has a way of flying by and all of a sudden June is only a few weeks away.  GLAMARAMA 2015 will be held June 2-7 at the Elkhart County 4-H Fairgrounds in Goshen, Indiana.  Registration is now available on the FMCA website under Chapters/Areas.  You can download the registration form or register online.  Again this year they will park us by chapters, so the earlier you register they can get the chapter areas set aside.  I am sure that like in the past you will need to notify your Chapter President so they can notify the parking chairman.  Please send that information to me along with the type of camping  your requested.  Also, Thursday evening time has been set aside for Chapter meetings and our Rally Masters Betty and Doug Tilmann are planning a dinner for that time.  More on that to come.  Don’t forget to register early – Last year they sold out all available sites in the fairgrounds.
