Message from the President
With regret I announce my resignation as President of the Freightliner Chassis Owners Club effective 1 March 2012.
My decision is based on some health issues, which have prevented my wife from traveling with me for the last year. Unfortunately, it does not appear we can expect any significant improvements to her health issues over the coming year. Since I prefer not to travel alone, I therefore consider it to be in the best interests of the club that I step down.
I have talked with Steve Batorson, current Senior Vice President, and he has agreed to accept the new responsibility.
Best regards to all.
Ron Sliger

HELP NEEDED
AREA COORDINATORS
One of the goals of FCOC is to get as many members as possible involved in Club activities.
While the Club sponsors up to two National Rallies each year, these rallies may not be convenient
for some members due either to the time of the year or the geographical location of the rally.
One way to solve this problem is to provide more rallies for FCOC members without involving long
distance travel. The FCOC is organized into nine geographical areas: Eastern, Great Lakes,
Midwest, Northwest, Rocky Mountain, South Central, Southwest, Southeast, and Western, which
are identical to the geographical regions of the FMCA, with the purpose being to try and organize
smaller, more convenient rallies for members living in these areas.
To assist in scheduling and organizing smaller rallies, the Club has created a position called
Area Coordinator, the primary function being to organize and manage rallies in a given geographical area.
This may involve either hosting a rally themselves, or identifying other members within the area to host
or co-host a rally.
The club has a Vice President, Area Operations – West (Katherine Henley), who is extremely knowledgeable
of the procedures involved in obtaining names and addresses of members living in a given area, and easy
methods to set up a local rally.
If you are interested and would like to volunteer as an Area Coordinator with the program, you can
contact Katherine at (214) 704-2437 or by email at
vp.areaops.w@fcocrv.org.
