PRAIRIE STATE SAMS
The attendance this year was way down from days past. Not sure of exact count but somewhere around 31 units was there to celebrate the 50 years of Illinois Good Sam Club, not a good showing. PSS had a great showing with 10-11 units, couldn’t decide after a number of counts but either way we made up at least a third of those attending. A few went to the 4 garage sales in town on Friday afternoon and finished the evening with a very abbreviated opening ceremony with no recognition of units or chapters flags. The entertainment by Gary Schiera, our very own Jerry and Marie S. Son, was great and the only entertainment the whole weekend. Penny bingo and Samgo was the only games I saw being played and our members won most of the winnings.
PSS ladies put on a great baked potato supper with all the trimmings on Sat night. They also provided PSS with a great breakfast each morning with the help of a few men folks frying and cooking. Thanks all who provided the good food and more snacks than anyone could eat.
Sundays church service was inspiring and the memorial service was very nice thanks to Vicki R who wrote up some very nice memories for Bob K and Opal P, thanks Vicki, check pictures for write ups. Enjoy the slideshow pictures and hope to see you all soon.
