U.S. MAPS RV CONVENTION - OCTOBER 2016

This first week in October is the MAPS RV Convention.  This was our third convention (we missed last years).  We always enjoy convention where many RV Volunteers join together for services, presentation of projects, fun and fellowship.


The first morning, we were invited to a breakfast cookout.  Even though it was raining, the food was delicious and the company even better.




The first day was registration and seeing old friends.




We had a sea of red vest with many patches.  The patches are representative of projects work.  We tease each other that we work for patches.


Our new director, Billy Thomas, welcoming everyone.


The services were great and the singing amazing.

One afternoon the ladies gather together for a time of fellowship and fun.



We always have a theme and this year was no different.  The theme was the 60's.  Here are a few pictures of the evening.



There were several acts and we were visited by Johnny Cash, the Herman's Hermits, The Supremes and Sonny and Cher.  My video of Sonny and Cher wouldn't post but Sonny and Cher aka Joyce and Al were hilarious.  There were a couple of others making a night of fun.

We didn't dress up too much but Glenn had made a tie-died shirt and I was a flower child.

Convention time is always fun and a great blessing.
