Work Rally at Hamilton, Ohio June 2
A GMC work rally will be held on June 2 in Hamilton just north of Cincinnati. The hosts, once again, will be Jim and James Miller and Jim's gracious wife where there’s space for parking and working for up to a 12 to 15 coaches or so.
The work rally is a “no membership, no dues, no badges” event — just lots of GMC work and talk and meeting other owners and wannabees. All interested parties are welcome, just bring your projects and problems and someone will probably have answers and/or be able to help. The projects should be kept to a size that can be accomplished in the limited time available. Also, be aware that others may be busy with their own work as well as assisting you with yours.
The Miller compound is southwest of the intersection of Routes 4 and 747. Easy access is from I-75 at exit 29 (Route 63 - Monroe) then west to route 4 and south to route 747. Early arrival on Friday and late departure on Sunday are okay. The rally involves dry camping though there is electric available for a few coaches. Access to potable water and a sewer dump are also on the grounds. The exact address is: 5119 Princeton Glendale Road, Hamilton, Ohio 45011 (see map below).

Bring parts for swapping and selling, also anything needed for your projects as well as any tools you may require. Some special tools and assistance may be available if requested in advance. We will have access to a floor pit on Saturday for the underside jobs but need to know if use of the pit for your project is required.
There will be a “Dutch” restaurant dinner on Friday evening for those arriving early. Saturday will feature a pot-luck noon cookout with burgers, bratwurst and hot dogs provided plus whatever else you choose to bring. Please contact Bob Burkitt at rburkitt@cinci.rr.com with any questions, to indicate your attendance, and state your desired projects.
