Well, as some of you may have have noticed, there has been a change in the day to day operation of the GMC Motorhome Registry. After seven and a half years of stewardship, I thought it was time to pass the Registry to someone more involved with the GMC family than I was at this time.

I talked to a number of GMC friends about this, and the general consensus by many was that Billy Massey might be the person to take over the position. In contacting Billy, he said he would very much like to do the job, and much appreciated the opportunity.

During my tenure from April, 2011 to November, 2018, there were 832 NEW coaches added to the data base (about 2.13 per week), and over a thousand ownership changes.

I wish to thank all of the GMC family for supporting me in this endeavor all these years, and especially Dave Greenberg, the Father of the GMC Registry, who, so long ago started a tradition that has helped so many people in their quest for "The Perfect GMC'. Dave was my inspiration to continue with this interesting and helpful part of the GMC Community, and I'm sure Billy will a do great job in the future.

Thank you all for your support.

John,

Thanks a bunch for your efforts. You've had a much larger job keeping the
Registry going than I had any idea. I'm hoping this change doesn't mean
Y'All will quit coming to events?

Thanks to all of you for your kind words! I really appreciate them. And to Ken H., yes, I will still be around. I'm still involved as Treasurer of the Eastern States and The Great Lakers clubs, and spend a lot of time keeping the old girl ship shape. Who knows, maybe this year I'll even finish the dash...

Thanks again,
John
