THE ROLLING ELKS
September 2023
We had a great turn out at our August 2nd meeting. We welcomed two new couples to the herd- Andrew & Tina Sturgill and Steve & Lisa Smoley. A sample jacket was displayed and was done with the iron-on method. The membership liked the look and we are close to finalizing a choice. Membership Chair Cori Hagan handed out the new directory to everyone. She did the set-up and printing herself and they are quite nice. Joann Otzman shared the way we can use our Rolling Elks flags if we are ever in distress on the highway. Great idea! There are two upcoming campouts- August 14-17th at Bandon RV Park (Joann-916-201-5160) and September 13-16 at Remote Outpost (Sharron 541-740-3517). Bruce Andrade won the membership drawing and Alicia Jacob Webb won the 50/50 drawing. Ron Borge and Steve Ackley shared jokes to close the meeting. We always welcome new members and our meetings are on the first Wednesday of the month at 3:30 at the lodge.

The Rolling Elks is a group of Florence members who share the interest of RV travel and camping out or “Glamping”. We currently have 35 member rigs. We meet the first Wednesday of each month at the Florence Elks Lodge at 3:30. p.m. and generally have 30+ members in attendance.
Don’t have an RV? Most of the campgrounds we visit have tent sites, cabins or even Yurts available!
March through November you’ll find us enjoying quick trips,3-4 days, to local beaches and campgrounds or even a multi-stop outing. Our volunteer Hosts/Wagon masters plan and lead trips of all types and venues. Membership doesn’t require your attendance at every event.
Being a Wagonmaster or Host of a campout is primarily finding an RV Park location and reserving spaces for our group. It is not required that the hosts have a structured itinerary.
The Rolling Elks are on the move again! Wagon masters are stepping up and campouts are being planned. More information below. At our January meeting, we elected new officers and they are:
President- Joe Cullivan 541-991-9060
Vice President- Sue Bennett,
Secretary- Sharron de Montigny 541-740-3517
Treasurer- Barbara Rosamond
Membership Chair- Bill Rosamond.
