| Tiffin Allegro Club Rally 5 14-18/2018 Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds Goshen, Indiana |
We planned for months to attend and be a part of the Tiffin Motorhomes Allegro Club Rally at the Elkhart County 4H Fairgrounds in Goshen, Indiana, May 14 - 18, 2018.

| Registration for Tiffin Allegro Club |
Before rally registration even began, we found out about an on site Saturday morning 4H pancake and sausage breakfast in one of the 4H pavilions. After eating, we attended a huge Amish auction in 5 of the nearby pavilions (only held twice a year). It was an amazing and entertaining auction, and we're both happy we were able to attend!
There are numerous RV manufacturers, vendors and suppliers in northern Indiana and organizing a rally of this size must have been a huge undertaking. The rally program was filled with experts and knowledgeable speakers on everything from "black tanks" to "chassis maintenance". In addition, nationally recognized entertainers, several ice cream socials, pet parade, bingo night, veterans night, and too many door prizes to count!

We were busy from the moment we arrived until our departure on May 18. I was honored to present several ARTitude Adjustment painting classes (It's FUN art...not FINE art!). I'm not sure who had more fun - me or the class. Both classes were sold out. One class was making domino pendant necklaces using alcohol inks, and they all turned out beautiful!

The other class was to apply a Chalk Couture transfer to a Tiffin Motorhomes Owners Club coffee mug (which had to be baked in an oven after the class). With the help of my able-bodied assistant (ABA) RV, and our friend, Frances Fonner, President of the FMCA Tiffin Travelers Chapter, we had smooth sailing and lots of laughs.

| Evening Entertainment at Tiffin Allegro Club Goshen, IN |
An RV rally is not only a time to get together with friends but an opportunity to meet new people and have LOTS of fun and eat LOTS of delicious food.

You can triple the LOTS of food if you are in Amish country! Our delicious meals were catered by Das Dutchman Essenhaus from nearby Middlebury, IN, and in addition, every night was excellent planned entertainment. The day before we departed, the award winning bakery, Rise 'n Roll Bakery, Mishawaka, IN, provided more than 100 dozen doughnuts/baked goods/, etc.
The filled-to-capacity Goshen, IN rally was attended by 310 Tiffin Motorhomes from 37 different states and 1 Canadian Province. At the Goshen rally, RV/MH Hall Of Fame Inductee and owner of Tiffin Motorhomes, Bob Tiffin, and his wife, Judy, numerous Tiffin employees and technicians, and many dedicated and well trained volunteers ensured attendees of the Tiffin Motorhomes Allegro Club had a fantastic time and enjoyed a spectacular program.

Allegro Club President Kelly Moore and Co-President Sally Moore, along with Cynthia Skinner, Membership Coordinator of Tiffin Motorhomes Allegro Club Office in Red Bay, AL, plan 3 national rallies a year (which are sold out within minutes of internet registration). The Tiffin Motorhomes Allegro Club has extremely successful rallies and we will look forward to attending the next one in October in Essex Junction, Vermont.
