TWO, Count 'em TWO New Rallies
OK.
D'Prevostman is on a roll.
How about:
1. We get a late July in Maine/New England rally going and have an unannounced inspection of Prevost Car at Ste. Claire? I don't know why I like that idea so much, but even Lew liked it in conversation.
2. Thinking about a Florida New Year's Rally. Since most of us really don't stay up late enough for ringing in the New Year, we could call it something else.
Lemme know or post yer comments.

We have a late July rally in the works; sort of. In Wisconsin..
Jon, Mike and I are going to rally the coaches at the world's biggest airshow; the Experimental Aircraft Association's "AirVenture" or "Oshkosh" as it was formerly known.
There are some 750,000 visitors to this airshow each year and we think we have a cool place to put the coaches, just off the North 40 airplane camping area.
Now I can really see Lew fired up for this one, but Mike wants to try and have more Prevost coaches there than airplanes
Jon will be giving a talk on Similarity of Engineering on Prevosts and Bonanzas
We will be holding the Prevost / Bonanza - Common Parts Workshop here
Mike will hold a seminar on Can This Christmas Be Saved? Why I Need A Toad With Wings
Whoopee...I'm getting wet already thinking about the Oshkosh air show.
If you do attend, maybe while you are north, we could work the northeast into your itinery.
You could even stop off in Elmira on the way and we would attach ourselves to the convoy
You could even tour the Warplane Museum in the Elmira/Corning area. Glider capital of something. Used to be of the world when I was a kid, but it lost out to the Swiss I guess.
The Corning Museum is a site to behold also. Hell, have the rally in Elmira and bring Prevost to us out of Canada.
No, the trip to Maine and Prevost sounds interesting If my hospital stays are small. Lewie is a cripple, ya know.

If you will be in Fla. for new years we will deffinatly attend. We pull out of Chicago the day after christmas, make a bounce in Scottsburro Al. to visit with family and then its down to the end of the road till Feb. I was told you had to be south of I-10 in the winter or your club membership doubled?
Where did you have in mind?
Debbie & Joe:
We'd definitely be up for a New Year's rally in Florida. We would welcome anyone from 'up north' (which for the Florida crowd means anyone north of Orlando.
Let's see how many other people we can rope into a rally, then find a place in Central FLA. Usually Lew is at Prevost in Jacksonville during the winter, but perhaps he can take a break from all of that to grace us with his presence?
Mike is around and he knows guys who know guys.
I could probably talk the webmaster at Prevost stuff into sponsoring a thing on that site and we could bring in some fresh meat to insult, er, welcome into the group.
Sounds like you have a winning idea!
Jeff There is an island at the 70mm in the keys and last year it was purchased and all the regulars were told Jan feb mar 06 would be it. Just for kicks we called there a while back and what luck to find out building permits were delayed. They took tenative reservations from us for Jan07 and told us we could confirm in august. If this place stays open 1 more year great oceanfront sites regulars have had tied up for decades will be available. Fiesta key koa 1-800-562-7730. Mabye some would be interested in following us down from central Fla.after the New Years,and continuing the season but it would all be tennative until August. Keep us posted on places you have in mind!
>2. Thinking about a Florida New Year's Rally.

wmm
That would be just great. Sounds like we have a bit of a 'mini-rally' going to bring in 2007!
