Tennessee Volunteer Kruisers – President

Happy New Year and Hello from Tennessee and the Volunteer Kruiser Chapter! I believe that by now everyone is warm and snuggled up wherever they are spending the remainder of what is left of their winter months. First, I would like to say, “Welcome to 2023” and the beginning of the upcoming camping season. I hope everyone enjoyed Newmar’s kickoff event, the Tampa Super Show, in Tampa, Florida. This is my favorite event because I know that there is much more to come.

The Newmar Klub Calendar is full of fun events that include the Volunteer Kruiser chapter rally located in Crossville, Tennessee at the Spring Lake RV Park. Our hosts for this event are Bill & Angela Mannion along with Scott & Julie McCalla.

Shortly after our chapter rally, the Tennessee State Rally, hosted by Phil & Charlene Budd, will begin in full swing in June at the Stoney Creek Travel Park.

One more item. I would like to let everyone know that Julie McCalla has joined our team of chapter officers. Julie has volunteered to be our chapter treasurer and we look forward to working with her throughout the remainder of the year.

In closing, I would like to put out there one small reminder. . . Keep in mind that there are many RVers in your state and surrounding areas that might own a Newmar but do not belong to a local chapter. They may have never heard of us (unbelievable, I know) but our recruiting efforts occasionally miss a few. If you see one of them in a campground or RV park where you might be staying, make a special effort to introduce yourselves and talk about our Volunteer Kruiser chapter. Keep a few older Legacy magazines around so that you can give them one and if you would like a few blank membership applications, let me know. Thank you for being NKK and local chapter members and most importantly, for owning a Newmar!
