Bud Bernard
As many of you may know, our long time member and Captain of the Greeters at the Indio WMHA Rally passed away just before Christmas last year. Bud was a great friend to us all and was Alice’s one true Support System. His Celebration of Life has been postponed until May 16th, 2020 at the Elks Lodge 150 S. Shasta Willows, CA 95988
Thank you from Alice, Lynette, Denise and families
Chapter Spotlight
Please welcome the Diablo Ramblers — the latest chapter to join the Western Area.
They were originally formed in 1973 and like several of our other chapters were associated with another organization. They will be assigned to the Northern Region as most of their members live in the Northern and Central part of the state but do have members living throughout California and several in Nevada.
Their President Kent Vander Linden mentioned that their campouts are scheduled anywhere from Oroville, Lodi, Columbia to Napa. They also like to go places while at the campouts and do activities like sightseeing or visiting museums, etc. They don’t have outings during June, July and August but otherwise have a very full campout schedule.
Their Chapter profile and Campout Schedule is posted at the page here: https://wafmca.com/?page_id=2521
From all of us in the Western Area to all of the Diablo Ramblers…Welcome Aboard!
A Thank You to The many Volunteers For Another Great Rally
A 1000 Thank You’s…
I couldn’t be more pleased with the way this year’s rally turned out as each of you, along with your wonderful volunteers, did an outstanding job! Your commitment showed on the faces of the attendees as they were having a great time during the rally. Thank you!
If you were not able to attend the critique meeting and you have suggestions that could improve your tasks, make events better, and/or simplify the ways we do things, please contact the WMHA VP you report to. We will also continue to fight the battle with the goat head stickers in the coming year. And I do hope you’ll consider returning again next year and being part of a great team.
Thank you again for your participation…have a great year and we’ll see you at Indio 2021!
Sincerely,
_____________________________
