HISTORY OF CHAPTER 41 - NYSKP's
After attending a Chapter 3 Rally and
finding out there were 350 SKP members in NYS with no chapter, Esther Tallamy and her
friends on Long Island decided to start one. And why not? She was qualified to do just
that as she had been the first female Chapter president for SKP’s in the United States,
presiding over Chapter 3. Chapter 3 consisted at that time of the New England States and
Eastern NY. Fifty people were in attendance at the first meeting. Monthly luncheons
continued until the first rally was held at
Brook-N-Wood Campground, in Elizaville, NY, a
small upstate town just east of the Hudson River in Dutchess County. That was May of 1996
and Esther became the new chapter’s first president.
The Chapter continues to grow and holds two annual rallies, the first rally is typically
held in early June and the second is on the weekend after Labor Day in September. Please
come and join us as we explore the wonders of our region.”

JUNE 2013 RALLY, A TRIP TO CANADA
Plans are in the works for a Chapter 41 rally in Canada in June of 2013. Now is the time
to check the expiration on your passport or renew your NYS driver's
license with a NY Enhanced Drivers License (EDL). Either will be needed to get back into
the U.S.
Our 2011 Fall Rally was cancelled due to flooding
A million thanks to Sue and Pat Vitek and Grace Whitbeck for all the work and planning,
shopping, travel time and energy that they put into our rally at
Cortland. Unfortunately, Mother Nature did not see fit to let us gather together as rains
flooded the area from Syracuse to Binghamton and south into
Pennsylvania and New Jersey, closed the roads and caused evacuations in many areas,
including at Cortland Country Music Park and Campground.
Our 2011 Spring Rally was held on June 10-12 in beautiful
Cooperstown, NY - Home of The
Baseball Hall of Fame.
We stayed at Beaver Valley
Campground located at 138 Towers Road in Milford, NY. They are 5 miles southeast of
Cooperstown.
The Rally Hosts were:
Marilyn and Bill Woodside and
John and Christine Straight
VCR's in attendance were Bryan & Jane Rose
There were so many things to see and do in the area including
The Dreams Park,
The Farmers Museum,
The Fenimore Art Museum,
and the beautiful
Otsego Lake.
The weather was a little wet but the facility was excellent and most of us stayed pretty
dry most of the time. The food piled high and good times at the
daily friendship hours were in no shortage. People visited many local attractions.
Chapter 41 elected a new President and a new Secretary too. The Rally report will have the
details.
Our 2010 Fall Rally was held September 10-12, 2010
Arrowhead Marina & RV Park,
Glenville, NY
The Western Rally at Arrowhead Marina & RV
Park was great. The weather was pretty cooperative especially for the concert. We had
a wonderful campfire concert on Saturday night, performed by Adirondack Folksinger, Dan Berggren.
