President s Corner: Hope everyone who attended the Benson Rally had a good time. We were sorry to miss it but Jeff s surgery took precedence. Thanks you Brooks & Christianson. This month is our first official business meeting of the year. I hope all of you will be in attendance. We have a lot of things to cover. We will also be looking for a new nominating committee and I do not want to hear why is this committee necessary. Facts are that maybe some of the present board may not want to continue. I would ask you all to please consider taking part of this important task. This is how our club can function. Just like we can t function without rallies and rally hosts. We still have 2 Rallies coming up in May that have opening to attend. The rally hosts have worked hard to present these rallies, and they need your support.

GONE TO TEXAS (GTT) RALLIES Gone To Texas Big Bend Style May 3 11 2018 The Drifters May 2018 rallies will actually be two back to back rallies cause Texas is just that big. GONE TO TEXAS was the catch phrase of many migrants to Texas in the 1800s. In fact it became such a part of the southern lexicon that it was often abbreviated to GTT which was posted on signs or painted cabins & gates. The 2018 Drifters May rally has adopted this phrase as our theme as we will be traveling across two thirds of the Lone Star State. GTT Big Bend. The Salfens and Basses are hosting the Big Bend portion which is runs from May 3-10 and will invite you to experience the expansiveness of this part Texas and to be able to sing with authenticity The stars at night Are big and bright.deep in the heart of Texas by the end. GTT - Heart of Texas is hosted by the Kuznickis, Nester/Baumanns, and Castriottas. It will run from May 11 23.

Monday we make an easy move to Lajitas, Texas - a small town that sits on the north bank of the Rio Grande between Big Bend National Park and the Big Bend Ranch State Park. We re staying at the Maverick RV Park where one of the locals and a park ranger will join us for dinner that evening and edicate us on the history of the local area (there s more than you would think). This is where you ll be freewheeling.
