Great Lakes Chapter 6Primary area of interest: Michigan and the Great Lakes area
(This page maintained by Jim and Linda Work. Last modified: 8/4/2008 12:04:30 PMCentral time.)
Welcome to the Escapees RV Club Chapter 6 website. Our chapter was organized for the purpose of providing a framework for members of the Escapees Club to make new friends through organized rallies and other announced social activities. We have three chapter-sponsored rallies each summer. We Care & Share. Chapter 6 was the first chapter to be honored for our generous donations to Care. By being the first chapter to donate over $10,000, a street was named for us in the Care area at Rainbow's End. Look for Great Lakes Circle next time you visit. The best part is we had so much fun while raising the money at special events like auctions, raffles and games at all our rallies.
At the Fall 2006 Escapade in Van Wert, Ohio, our Chapter presented Miss Kay with an additional $4000 to bring our total giving to $30,000 to CARE! Kay has presented us with a challenge to earn another $10,000 for CARE. When this goal is achieved, Joe and Kay will attend our Tri-Chapter rally. Chapter 6 is progressing with this goal. Please continue your support for CARE at our summer rallies in 2008 and the Escapade.
By the end of the 2007 season, Chapter 6 Care donations topped $34,000.
Keep up the good work Chapter 6 members!
