The Executive Board has developed and approved some written policies and procedures that deal with how we handle, review and approve club expenses. The intent is to insure the EB fulfills its fiduciary duties to the club members. This new document can be found on this website on the page “Policies & Procedures”. Other Policies and Procedures may be added in the future to cover other important topics.
The Executive Board is still working to fill office vacancies in our club. John Merell has agreed to serve as Treasurer and Wendy Cole will serve as Secretary. Thius leaves us with an opening for 1st Vice President. Please call Dave Stahlhut if you are interested.
Five Nevada Unit rigs attended the AZ Units “Discover Prescott” Rally in Prescott, AZ. The Rally was a great success with over 20 rigs total and lots of great fun and activities.
Attending from the Nevada Unit were Merells, Groffs, Christensens, Hancocks and Fullers.
Longtime Nevada Unit member, Harry Brown, passed away on May 16, 2009 at age 97. Harry has been a WBCCI member for 47 years and travelled extensively throughout North America. Harry was a master carpenter, a Navy Seabee, and a Lieutenant in the Sheriff’s Mounted Posse. He had a wide variety of interests and demonstrated his skills by restoring an award winning 1932 Ford Model A and by building many beautifull woodworking projects. His latest was a grandfather clock which he built last year at age 96! Harry and Dorothy were gracious hosts to Airstreamers passing near their home in Twin Falls. We will miss Harry and the wonderful stories he shared about his long life.
Internment will be at 10:40 AM Thursday, May 28 at Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery in Boulder City.

More sad news for the Nevada unit. Dottie Tillinghast died this morning after being hospitalized.
Art and Dottie have been WBCCI members for many years and have attended many rallies and caravans. They were regular attendees of the WBCCI International and have made friends all over the US because of their involvement in the club. Lately, Dottie has been doing a wonderful job of installing our club officers and initiating our new members. No one else could administer the ceremony in such a professional and personal way. Our meetings and rallies just won’t be the same without her. Art - our condolences to you.
A memorial service will be held at Boulder Veteran’s Memorial Cemetery at 2:00 PM on April 29.
