Florida Sea Turtles – President
The International Rally in Rock Springs, Wyoming was a huge success. The Sea Turtles had a caravan of eight coaches go in together. This was less than last year, but we still had a great time. We gathered in Rawlings, Wyoming so we could caravan together for early parking. One of our group dinners in Rawlings was a Japanese Steakhouse; it was a great time and food with our Sea Turtles family and additional Newmar members. During the Florida Social at the International Rally, we received four new members.
With the International Rally west this year, many of our members wandered around the west. Some traveled to Glacier National Park, the Utah National Parks, and other points west. When you live in Florida, you might as well see as much of the beautiful west since you’re already there.
We have four chapter rallies every year. Many of us will also attend the Tampa Super Show RV Rally. There will be a Florida Social on Thursday afternoon during the Tampa Rally.
• November 13-16 at the Ranch of Arcadia Palms RV Resort in Arcadia hosted by Dick & Barbara Quinby.
• December 8-11 rally is at the Creek Side RV Resort in Punta Gorda hosted by George & Susan Young.
• February 16-19 rally will be at a new campground Santa Fe Palms RV Resort in Gainesville, Florida host by Rolf & Ann Kuhn.
• March 16-19, 2023 will be at another new RV Resort, Southern Springs RV Resort in Ocala, Florida hosted by Brian & Nancy Howard.
This year’s slate of rallies is looking to be a great series. We look forward to seeing you at one of our upcoming events.
The Newmar Owners’ Luncheon will resume the 2nd Wednesday of each month starting in December through March at the Golden Corral at 4705 US Hwy 98 N, Lakeland, FL 33809. Social and lunch is from 11:30 to 1:00. All Newmar owners are invited to attend.
