There were 14 Treks
from the NWTFC geographical area in attendance at the Rally. Ten of these
were NWTFC members so we were very well represented. Penny Braden
volunteered in the registration area and I worked the breakfast
preparation. I know others volunteered but I don't have details.
Peggy and I also recruited three vendors for the rally.
This was a very good rally with great seminars and vendors. Al and Judy
Yeast deserve a huge commendation. Grace Henderson from the NETFC was
their right hand person. Many people had upgrades performed on their
Treks, four 2006/2007 Treks were sold and potential orders were taken for
another 10. All the vendors I chatted with were ecstatic with their sales.
Several of us rode our bicycles on the Katy trail which is the longest
"Rails to Trails" trail in the USA. The Katy Rail Museum was very
informative with regards to the trail and Sedalia history in general.
Penny Braden and Ben Paschall received recognition as the Trek that
traveled the farthest to be at the Rally.
The Tweedies, from our club, and the Coopers, from the SETFC, committed to
joining us in Alaska in 2007. Al and Cathy Cooper attended the
Independence Rally and purchased a new Trek at the Sedalia Rally.
We did
miss being with you in Albany.
