BMW MOA National, Springfield Mo. June 16-19 2022

[Lee]

The National rally will be held at the Ozark Empire Fairgrounds, Springfriend Mo. June 16 -19 2022
You do not need to be a MOA member to attend.
We have a motel reservation Wed, Thu, Fri and Sat nights.
If you like to tent or RV camp you can camp at the fairgrounds.

If the Kentucky rally is moved to June next year maybe it can be held the week before or after the National.

Are ya'll going to sign up as volunteers?

We'll probably do something like Registration, we liked doing that at Lebanon. Most of the volunteer things are just 4 hours. We had fun doing registration and ended up staying a extra hour or two.
We were Gofers at Des Moines but that was a full time job Monday to Saturday night and we had a bad experience with the couple in charge of Gofers.

[Susan]

We had our first and last bad experience as volunteers at Morganton years back. Way too many egos and wanna-be celebrities in charge to suit us.

[Lee]

Most of them are good but like you said some are a problem.
Chuck warned us about one guy ahead of time. Even Chuck got in trouble with that guy at Des Moines
After going to the meeting in Colorado and helping at Des Moines we got to know the ones to avoid

[Susan]

Chuck was a class act, a great guy. We had met him (and Julie) some years back, and yes, agreed, most of them are good people.

[Lee]

We'll probably do some Arkansas riding before or after Springfield.

[Susan]

We plan on doing that this October!

[Lee]

May not see you this year. We made our Arkansas reservation for the week Hillbilly is normally held but that's the same week as Pirate's party

[Susan]

Yep, we'll probably leave after Jerry's get together. Last we checked, The Gordon was still for sale so not sure about where to stay. Sad news is that Blue Mountain Cafe is closed.
