We have 30 members, or 30 coaches in our group. We schedule our outings on the second week of each month- April thru October. We try to stay 100 to 200 miles around Michigan and Northern Ohio. Although our get-togethers actually are Friday thru Sunday morning. Some of our members come earlier in the week. We also usually meet for lunch once each month from November thru March for the non-snowbirds. We always go to Berrien Springs in May, as that is the Great Lakes Area Spring Spree. Our group is mainly retired, and a few that are close to retiring. We have been together since September of 2002, and sure have a great time. You are welcome to come and visit us for one of our outings. If you are interested, please make reservations one month in advance. Looking forward to meeting you at one of our rallies.

DESCRIPTION
Hoosier Cruisers is a chapter of the Family Motor Coach Association with a membership of over 120 family units. We hold six rallies each year with 25-40 coaches attending. Rallies are held in the Southern, Central and Northern parts of the state. The rallies focus on tours and points of interest that the rally masters believe will be informative, interesting, and fun. The most important thing that happens at the rallies is the reconnection with friends. We share many of our meals together. Sometimes meals are catered and at other times everyone brings their favorite dish. Some of our evening meals are topped off with local entertainment or a campfire where members share great conversation. We welcome all who enjoy the motorhoming lifestyle.

DESCRIPTION
Our chapter is one of the oldest chapters in the United States. We usually conduct 6 monthly rallies a year. Often, the rallies are at fairgrounds around the state of Michigan's lower peninsula. Occasionally, the rallies are held at campgrounds and on several occasions out of state. The rallies are officially scheduled to run from Friday through Sunday morning. However, coaches often start arriving by Wednesday allowing more time to socialize. Typically, about 50 coaches make it to each rally. Friday evening sees a potluck supper and Saturday evening we are treated with an optional catered meal. Drawings and door prizes usually follow the Saturday evening meal. We are constantly seeking and would welcome new friendships/members.

DESCRIPTION
Midwest Coachmen is one of the first three chapters of FMCA to receive their official charter on April 10, 1965. The chapter's name does not refer to the Coachmen motorhome brand. At the time it was chosen, the word coachmen was used to describe people who owned RV's. Owners of all coach makes are welcome. Friendship, good company, and good times are just a few of the benefits that our chapter offers. With over 100 member families and 45 years under our belt the membership must be doing something right. Chapter members rally approximately eight times each year. Most rallies are held in Ohio, where the majority of Midwest Coachmen members live, but the group has been known to stray a little farther into Michigan, Indiana, or other bordering states. Typical rallies include potluck dinner, activities, and varying entertainment. Time is made available for members to explore the rally area on their own. Playing golf, corn hole, and bolo golf are a few of the activities we do, plus socializing. We are just a happy and fun loving group.
