Richard & Donna Ritchie (16254)
Illinois State Directors

We stayed in Texas long enough to realize how hot it gets in the valley in the summer. Not the place for us! We’re gearing up for a busy rally time this summer.

Our joint Illinois/Iowa Rally is June 8th in Whittington, Illinois at Whittington Woods Campground. It’s still not too late to join us. Contact us at 847-804-4274 if you need more information or check the Klub Calendar on newmarkountryklub.com.

Next, we will attend a chapter rally in Pana, Illinois. That will be a different location for us. In July we will head to Wyoming for the International Rally. Be sure to look for us at the Craft Contest; we will be the team leaders again this year

We always visit Colorado around Labor Day for some family time and the Kiowa County Fair. From there we will head to Minnesota to the Region Four Rally hosted by Paul & Judy Swing. We’re sure hoping the cost of fuel doesn’t keep rising!

Hopefully, between our travels, we’ll get some more family time traveling back and forth to Illinois. We had one family member suggest a family reunion, and we honestly couldn’t squeeze another big event in our summer calendar.

Take care, and travel safely. Enjoy the weather.
