Thank you for visiting the Georgia Winnie Rebels website.  Our membership is made up of owners of Winnebago-Itasca motor homes from the state of Georgia.  If you own a Winnebago vehicle, we encourage you to consider joining our club.

 

The Georgia Winnie Rebels (GWR) is the state chapter of the national Winnebago-Itasca Travelers (WIT).  The state club consists of three local chapters:  the Metro Atlanta Winnies of greater Atlanta, the Gone With The Winnies of north Georgia, and the Sta-Goners of central Georgia.  Each local chapter meets one weekend a month to camp together and enjoy our motor homes at various campgrounds within Georgia and surrounding states.  Additionally, each April the GWR hosts a Georgia State Rally over 3-5 days which includes vendors, games, entertainment and fellowship.  Camping schedules for each local chapter and the state are found by clicking on each chapter button.

 

Membership in the club is diverse, including working families and retired families from all walks of life and ages.  The primary goal of our outings is to have fun, enjoy each others company and learn more about our coaches. 

 

Please browse the website to gain a better idea of our club and what it can offer to you.  We encourage you to consider joining GWR and one of it’s local chapters.  Please feel free to call me or any of the officers to learn more about us and to get any questions you might have answered.  We look forward to meeting you at the campground!

Dear Georgia Winnie Rebel Members:
 
Margie and I have just returned from the WIT Chicago Tour and want you to know we had a delightful time.   This was our first WIT tour and I do recommend checking them out.  We are already looking ahead to the Washington DC Tour in 09.
 
There are a few items I would like to call to your attention at this time--
 
Please plan to attend the next State Meeting in Gadsden, Alabama.  Make your reservation with River Country Campground at 256-543-7111, dates September 19th - 21st.  Early arrivals are welcome.  Metro is the host chapter.  Fred Tomsett tells me he is going to make his famous macaroni and meat dish for the main meal on Saturday night.  That alone is worth the trip!!!
 
We still have open committee slots for the April 2009 Rally both in leader and team member positions.  Check the website and then contact Fred or myself and we will fill in the blanks.  If you know of any source for door prizes and can secure one or two for the club, please do so and let us know. The rally organization will be on the agenda for the business meeting.
 
If you are interested in caravanning to the Louisiana State Rally in October, please contact me.  Dates are October 24th - 26th.  Rally information can be found in the June WIT Club News on page 71.  The plan is to meet at the Alabama Welcome Center, I-85, on Sunday around 1 P.M. and head out to an RV park south of Montgomery.  Monday we will drive about 250 miles to our next stop and Tuesday into Rayne, Louisiana.  The return will be at your discretion, however, a stop at Fairhope, Alabama could be allot of fun as the RV park I have in mind (Wales West) has a narrow gauge railroad running around the park plus a heated pool and other amenities.   So far, there are 6 couples interested in going. 
 
Thank you for your time, your help and see you in September.
 
Dan Rankin, President
Georgia Winnie Rebels
