2019 DeMontrond Rally Mineola TX

We had to wait till Tuesday to come to the Rally due to having my truck put in the shop for repairs  that happen on 10/30/2019 when a car hit the front of the truck and took out our neighbors mail box. Lucky for us the person that hit our truck had good insurance and he left his number. It as parked in our driveway and it was about 2 in the morning.

We had a total of 10 rV's at this Rally. Another good Rally.
We had our Election of Officers and the Results are now in for 2020 : President-Jesse Soto, VP - Suzette Sherwood, Secretary Bill Murphy, WagonMaster - Larry Huebel , Treasurer- George Welsh.

Pat Franklin announced that she will resign her duties as Sunshine Lady as of January 1,2020. Anyone that would like to take on this, should talk with our new president. This is not a Board position, only an appointed position.

The Mineola Civic Center brought us a plate of fresh homemade cookies. They were so very good. Thanks a lot.

LaVerne found a hidden treasure in Mineola. It is a restaurant by the name of Pedrodes they have a great buffet and we all went there on Tuesday evening. Some had been there and advised us the Bread Pudding was good. We also just had to go to East Texas Burger Co.
The Dudley's came by and visited us and we went and had lunch with them in Chandler, TX at Wade's Place. Great food.

Our new V.P. Suzette did a great job on our night meals. thanks so much it was good doing something a little different. keep up the great work.
Wednesday night we had an ice cream social thanks to LaVerne Williams. We had all the trimmings for banana splits. and the officers served the dessert. Thanks LaVerne great idea.

Our pot luck was very good. everyone brought delicious food. Bonnye Schaeffers chicken and dumplings were very good.

Our host teams were the Halls and the Welshs, they had good continental and full breakfast. Mary was able to get her  donuts on the menu with kolaches on continental.
We played lots of games and had bingo also, thanks to Vernon for calling. He also had us some happy hour drinks. He was kept busy.

Some went sightseeing and others took in local places.  Most everyone went to the parade on Saturday morning in downtown Mineola and then visited the shops afterwards.
Our next rally for DeMontrond  will be in January at KOA Onalaska.

Please have a very nice Thanksgiving and have a Blessed Christmas. Please keep Christ in your Christmas.
Watch over all our travelers family that will be traveling  and please watch over our military and our great country, America.
