“Badgers Gone Buckeye” caravan to Alumapalooza. LEADERS: Ed & Sandy Emerick.

We are departing Appleton WI on May 28th going over the UP of Michigan stopping at Mackinaw City, Frankenmuth, Port Clinton and then on into Jackson Center, Ohio. After Alumapalooza, our caravan continues to the Spirt of Cleveland Rally, passing through Columbus and Akron Ohio. At the end of the Spirt of Cleveland Rally the caravan will go to Cedar Point for two nights, then on to Shipshewana, IN and the Indiana Dunes State Park before we blast back to WI on the 18th of June.  This is a pay-as-you-go and make your own reservations caravan. Anyone who would like to join up can contact Ed at eemerick@new.rr.com.

Region 2 Rally caravan to Alumapalooza. LEADER: Tom Waugh

We are working on a caravan to start either at the end of the Region 2 rally (in Biglerville, PA, May 26-30) and making it a two day trip, or meeting up somewhere along the way.  Whichever way we decide I’m sure there will be a few of us traveling together. This is not a WBCCI sponsored activity.  We would like to encourage non-members of the WBCCI to join us along the way.  We have posted the article on our website and we hope to update that information with the exact details by May 1.  Anyone who is interested, contact the leader at me1sirius@verizon.net to help decide the time and location for the meetup.
