Discussion
For our September lunch,  we had 21 people present including three first time guests. We celebrated Stephan's birthday.  Russ Johnson told us about the upcoming Octoberfest at Rainbow's End on Wednesday October 16th. Anna Graham discussed the potluck and entertainment next Saturday starting at noon at the Club house. A question was asked about whether the Chapter would pay the Escapade fee for our Row representative.  We have done this in the past and likely would do so for next year's Escapade. We are looking for a Chapter 10 Row representative. We decided to not have a Fall Rally this year and will try to put together a Spring Rally, likely in early April. We were considering a Fall rally in the Orange, Texas area but Dave Metzger reported that the RV park we were considering is still recovering from storm damage and is not accepting group reservations.  Also, the Stark House that we were considering visiting is closed for renovations. We will have our annual election of officers at next month's Lunch. We still need a nominee or nominees for Secretary.

Chapter dues,  $5 per year.
Officers: President, David Horton; Vice-President, Dave Metzger; Treasurer, Dan Day; Secretary, Carolee Day

Escapees - Chapter 10 - Welcome

Periodically I get a list of new Escapees that are interested in finding out about the Chapters and the BoFs. Here is what I sent out this morning to that group. Reminder: Chapter 10 lunch is a week from Friday, see information below. David Horton

Escapees - Chapter 10 - Welcome
Good morning, 

Let me introduce myself,  I am David Horton the President of Escapees Chapter 10.  Welcome to the Escapees!

The 'Chapters' are part of the social arm of the Escapees. The chapters are geographically designated.   Chapter 10, the Rainbow Chapter, contains many members from the Rainbow's End Escapee Park in Livingston, TX.  Our designated geographical area is East Texas and Louisiana. It does not matter what your mailing address is or where you consider your home base, you can join any chapter you want to join or more than one if you are so inclined. You can get information about the Chapters in the Escapees magazine which is published every other month. Included are lunch gathering and rally information. 

We have a monthly lunch where we get together and socialize.  The lunch is the second Friday of the month at 1 pm. Our current semi- permanent location for lunch is La Casita:
La Casita
215 S Washington Ave
Livingston, TX. 77351
936-328-5833
Come join us on Friday September 13th at 1 p.m. if you are in the area.  As a guest or visitor you will be made to feel welcome. 

We try to have a Chapter rally in the Spring and the Fall.  This Spring we had a rally in Eunice, LA. Come join us at a lunch or rally if you like.  

For more information on the Chapter take a look at our page on the Escapees.com website, call our recorded voice mail 888 757 7701 code 8010, or send me an email with any questions.
