GMCMHChaptersWhat makes owning a GMC great is the connection with other GMC owners.It is easy for younger owners – kids still in the house, still working, family responsibilities, independent and hungry for solitude – to go their own way.But that is not the best way to own a GMC. Without the community, it will die. It is the community that keeps the necessary cottage industry and mutual support alive. But that community justifies itself. Eventually, those who attend regularly become friends, and rallies are no longer the alternative to a vacation, they become the “best kind of vacation”.So, join clubs. Attend rallies. Make friends. Help make things happen. Let us find a way to make a new Bean Station.A post from the GMC forum by Rick Denney:I am sure the Dixielanders will find a way to have a work rally in the future, but it will take some commitment from younger folks (plus the right venue) to make it possible.Which leads me to two points:1. When a good thing is available – participate and support it. 2. When a good thing is not available – pitch in to replace it.SPRING 2018 GMC MOTORHOMES INTERNATIONAL 33
