My wife, Carol Dixon, is the current president of the Northern Illinois Unit of WBCCI. Look at the NorthernIllinois dot wbcci dot net website to see if we are doing anything that might be of interest to you. You can find our tel no. on the website if you have any questions. We have several members that live in Chicago fairly close to you. The next local rally will be in July.

Thanks for the Welcome. I'm struggling with timing out getting my posts made. I will be picking the coach up later this week, really excited. I started out looking for a pop-up (pauses while derisive laughter subsides) and look what I ended up doing right lol.

@ dwight - Thanks I'll check it out, most of my roaming will be south of Shelbyville in Illinois, and southern Indiana. I can't get over how awesome these coaches are and can't wait to get started.

Problems with timining out while composing posts can be eliminated by writing your post in your word processing software (WordPad or NotePad work as well). Once completed in your word processor, you can copy and paste into the newly opened post window and make your post without fear of being timed out.

  • Air Midwest Black River Rendezvous, Annapolis, MO -- June 18-20 - - link.
  • July Rally at Whittington Woods Campground, Whittington, IL -- July 16-18 - - link.
  • WBCCI Southern Illinois Unit Rally Schedule - - link.

I am sure that you will enjoy your Minuet.

Congrats! We own an 27' 1978 Argosy. Your timing is good. Next year the International Rally is in Ill. I understand. My father grew up in Decatur. As a kid we made trip after trip to the state. Sounds like you have a new support team all around you on this project between the Forum and the Northern Illinois Unit of WBCCI. We would not have made it through our 9 month birthing [updating] process (Sep 09 - Jun 10) without the support of the WA Unit and the forum.

6 days and counting until we leave for Gillette!
