CCO Monthly Newsletter
Nine regional Country Coach clubs and the two international Country Coach clubs were invited to contribute to a monthly newsletter the Country-Coach-Owners Yahoo Group would post. We realize that the clubs usually have their own websites, but this consolidated newsletter will allow them to quickly identify "happenings" and pointers for you to their events.
We had input this month from two clubs:
* Country Coach Friends Incorporated (CCFI) * Country Coach International Club (CCI)

Happy Autumn from Country Coach Friends Incorporated...
Rally Times are the Best of Times!
The 2013 Rally Schedule is set, with rallies in Texas, Oregon and California. In the headlights is the spring rally in May at the Buckhorn Lake Resort in Kerrville, TX. This rally has 60 spaces reserved for the popular Buckhorn venue. You can expect wonderful food from resort host Kathy and Dee Christensen. Count on some great Texas Hill Country entertainment with a couple sidetrips thrown in. South Central VP David Twilley and his lovely Jean will host the event. Rally registrations are now being accepted for the Spring Rally and are available at www. CountryCoachFriendsIncorporated.com.
Registration forms will soon be available for the 3rd Annual Friendship Rally in Oregon. We return home to the south Willamette Valley where all Country Coaches were built, and in 2013 to a popular rally site, Linn County Expo. Quite simply, we've outgrown the River Bend Resort facilities! Register early to be a part of our return to the Albany, Oregon rally site for the 3rd Annual CCFI Friendship Rally!

We appreciate CCFI club sponsors including the four dealerships wanting to introduce new coach owners to the CCFI membership experience.
These dealerships are inviting motorcoachers to join CCFI, one of the fastest growing FMCA international chapters of Country Coach owners (and their other brand motorcoaching friends), and are purchasing the first year's CCFI membership for them at the time of their coach purchase. If you are not a member of FMCA (and have never been a member of FMCA), enjoy a free membership provided by Country Coach Corporation. And for an added cherry on the top, Matt Carr of Carr Industries will send a new cutting board when you join Country Coach Friends, too (just sign up at his website)! This month we welcome Innovative Coachworks of Junction City, Oregon as a new club partner and rally supporter. Thanks Matt and Rai for joining the CCFI Sponsor Family!
The CCFI Member Family is growing!
Rally locations are being explored to accommodate even more coaches at CCFI events. If you have favorite rally sites you'd like to recommend, email countrycoachfriendsinc@... (countrycoachfriendsinc@...)! To join the club or to register for a CCFI rally, visit www. CountryCoachFriendsIncorporated.com

NOVEMBER, 2012 MONTHLY NEWS
27 YEARS AND GOING STRONG
CCI President Bill Brock reports after the Charlotte, North Carolina, Speedway Rally that he can hardly believe he is back from Charlotte almost 2 weeks. What a rally!!!!!
We had so much fun! Our rally hosts were Jim and Elizabeth Nelson and what a fantastic job they did. Thank you so much Jim and Elizabeth. They kept the 160+ attendees busy from dawn till dusk. Tours of the race track, seminars, crafts, silent auction, vendors galore, watching the Viper Club on the track, ice cream social, dueling pianos, and delicious food all made this Rally outstanding.
One of the highlights for me was the General Membership meeting. Standing with my back to the race track and leading the meeting, while everyone else was watching the cars on the track. For me it was like watching a tennis match, really quite amusing.
The one thing that cannot be put into words is the amount of love and friendship that abounded at this Rally. My wife happened to take a tumble while walking the day the Rally started so she was in a wheelchair for the remainder of the rally. The care we received from the ambulance, the hospital, Tom Johnson Campground and the Charlotte Motor Speedway staff was phenomenal. You certainly gain a better understanding of being handicap accessible. Our Country Coach family was so understanding of my position as a husband in relation to being President. I have to say a huge thank you to Jane Jordan, Gerry Conway, Gary McConnell, George Sanders and the whole Board for being flexible with meetings. We had a large agenda to cover and worked many hours on Bylaw changes and a host of other subjects.
Kathe' and Derrell Letulle are our new Rally Masters and I know they have exciting events planned for Cody, WY. If you get a chance to drop them a note of encouragement, please do so. Anyone who has ever planned a rally knows that "many hands make light work" and that "the more the merrier" is also true. A big "thank you" to all who helped to make this Rally such a success. Read all about it in the October CCI eNews.
