SMW Regional Muster
Mark your calendars for our 2012 SMW Regional muster. It will be held at the Cowtown RV Park in Aledo, TX. 17,18,19,20 April. We will leave on the 20th. This park is between Ft. Worth and Weatherford on I20. It has room for aprox. 40 rigs. Other information will follow on a possible tour and other events. Based on attendance at the past two (2) regionals, we should have plenty of room. Chapter presidents are asked to poll their chapters to get an early count, to see if we need to get another park with a larger meeting room. The Texan chapter can e-mail me if they plan to attend.
The planning for the muster is proceeding very well. We will do a catered dinner, a catered breakfast and the other evening meals will be prepared by the host. Still working on the menu. We will not have a planed breakfast on the morning of the bus tour. We will be looking for entertainment within the organization. I know there are several members that are very good at what they do. Look for a contact in the near future. More information will follow as it become available

National Muster Rumor
There is a rumor going around that the National Muster days are going to be reduced and a refund is going to be sent out. This is NOT TRUE. The National Muster is still going to be Sept. 21-26.
The National Muster Committee is going strong and has some great seminars planned on Solar energy and GPS units, just to name a few. They have Camping World lined up as one of our many vendors. Artist Josephine Jones from Monarch Studios will be there to teach a class on oil painting. So the National Muster activities are going Strong. We are going to have a great turn out with over 156 rigs signed up already. So please if you hear this rumor put a stop to it! Thanks. National HQ.
