Greetings from WARE in Lodi !

2013-04-16_16-48-035 Nine Shanty Shaker rigs traveled to wine country about 30 miles south of Sacramento to the Western Area Rally of Escapees at the Lodi Grape Festival Fairgrounds (Armstrongs, Carles, Fosters, Hawkins, Kalendas. Paces, Parkers,Seldens, and Don Smith).  About 170 rigs representing 30 different chapters/BOFs attended the rally.

2013-04-15_12-20-36_609 Our chapter sponsored the Baseball Bean Bag tournament. Our members officiated as umpires and scorekeepers for the highly competitive players. Thanks again to Commissioner Faith Foster and the assistant Commissioner Vern for organizing the chaos. And a big thanks goes to Ed Masters and John Pumphrey for building the boards. (and rumor has it that Ed sacrificed part of a thumb too)
P1040184 You will be seeing these at future rallies ….for sure !
Co presidents Garth and Judy carried the Shanty Shakers banner during the chapter introductions2013-04-16_16-03-023

Beside enjoying several Happy Hours together many of the group also ventured out to a local wine tasting room. We didn’t leave empty handed  and enjoyed our early afternoon wine buzz.

We shopped at the vendor booths and enjoyed the display of RVs….but not as much as Doris and Ed K. They bought a new rig !!  Be sure to ask them about it ! So exciting !

It was fun meeting new friends from other chapters and of course getting the SKP hugs ! Be sure to put next years WARE rally on your calender !!
