Florida Panhandle Winnies
April 2007 Campout
by Jenese Truelsen, Sec.

The April campout was held at South Wind RV Park at Magnolia Springs. AL with 14 member rigs and 2 guests on 13-15th.   Johnsons came from MS and Briggs from AL.    Several rigs reported in on Thursday so we gathered at the Family Fish Camp for supper.   Friday morning the men gathered for golf and the women for shopping.     Friday afternoon found the rest of the RVs moving in and games started.

Saturday morning the group was treated to blueberry and apple pancakes with smoked sausages by the wagon masters, Truelsens and McNairs.      Our business meeting was short but held congratulations for those recovering from surgery, knee for Nora, 3 stents in heart for Hudson and continued strength for Mickey.   Catherine is in the hospital with complications from diabetes.   Later we learned that Porter has been diagnosed with cancer and going to start treatment so prayers for his treatment and recovery.

Saturday evening we enjoyed lots of food for buffet supper.    The group donated some of their coins, bills and a check to fill 2 baby bottles.   These were delivered with $50.00 to the Pregnancy Resource Center in Milton, FL.

 The Center counsels and helps young parents and is doing abstinence classes in all the county middle school classes.  Their building was destroyed by Ivan and again by Dennis and has been completely rebuilt and the workers are volunteers.

Sunday morning it was good byes after a pot luck breakfast and the club house cleaned up.
