Arizona State Directors

Hi everyone!  We just returned from the New Mexico Chili Pepper Rally to Arizona for our favorite time of year, Monsoon Season.  What makes it our favorite time of year you may ask?  Well, it brings a much-needed reprieve from Arizona’s oppressive heat (107 deg today).  Of course, we recognize that with our Newmar we can as easily hop in it and move north to cooler climes.  However, doing so would cause us to miss some of the state’s most enchanting spectacles. The storms may bring rolling haboobs (impressive but not desirable), fantastic lightning storms and fresh desert smells. Also, the desert starts to green up again, and multi-colored flowers appear in the surrounding desert as if by magic.

We enjoyed the Chili Pepper Rally which brought us new sights, games and new friends. As all rallies have their special characteristics, new and old friends getting together is the best part in our opinion. To that end, we as Arizona State Directors will host our rally October 6-10.  We are planning two tours, some catered meals, special speakers and displays as well as games and opportunities to explore the Yuma, Arizona area and history by yourself or with friends.

We are preparing for the Newmar International rally as we are writing this article and as you read it, the rally will be over.  We hope you attended, enjoyed the festivities, seminars, friends and the journey. I know we will (did) as we decided to volunteer to help this year. We have found our enjoyment of these rally’s increases, and our circle of new friends grow making our investment in Newmar and the Newmar Kountry Klub ever more valuable.  We hope you will do the same and enjoy the same experience.

We are now on our way to Yuma, Arizona to put finishing touches on our October rally.  Once all events are confirmed and arrangements finalized, we will post the details to the website, https://newmarkountryklub.com/event/arizona-state-rally/.  We hope your plans allow you to join us and ask you to sign up soon before we must start a waiting list.
