For those attending the GMCMI rally, there is a Duracool store in located in Leesburg, Indiana. It is Worthington AG parts located on the west side of Indiana 15 approximately 18 miles south of the Goshen campground or approximately 5 miles north of US 30.

It is an easy stop right on highway 15 if you are arriving from the south. I believe the current price is $6.25 per can plus sales tax. I haven't been there in a while.

Ken,
Do you know them? Maybe they could be convinced to come to the rally just one day and sell Duracool at the rally? Just a thought...

Yes and No.

Worthington is an agricultural farm machinery company. Duracool is just an item they handle. It would be like asking Walmart to come and sell Rotella motor oil at the rally. There would be
no interest on their part in doing for that.

Now if you want to buy a combine or three then maybe there would some interest.

Anyone GMCer interested could easily take trip down there one day. I just wanted people to know there is a store close by. There are Worthington stores in many Midwest states. I think they are headquartered out of Minnesota. I know Dan got some from a Worthington store in Missouri.

Please be sure to check with Kim Weeks, our convention manager, before inviting anyone to come to the rally to sell anything.
There are some specific things that we must do to be sure that a vendor is covered by insurance just in case of any accidents or whatever at the rally.
Members are covered by our multi-million policy provided by FMCA but that doesn't cover us for anyone that is not a member.

Also, at some of our conventions we much have specific advance approval of the campground or fair management of our vendors.

That is why we generally don't have people selling chairs, popcorn, trinkets, etc. at the rallies that are not GMC related or sold by a member who has registered at the convention.
There are also sometimes sales tax regulations that we have to follow as well.

If might be a bit embarrassing to you to have you invite someone only to find when then get there that that cannot sell on the grounds.

Ken, got to Druber's about 2 this afternoon. Fired the coach and we still got cold air. Today, life is "very" good.

Great!,

I saw you go by Grissom Airbase this afternoon around 2PM. I haven't looked since then. I left both trackers in my Blazer and my daughter has been using it for the last 2 weeks or so. So don't look for me on APRS. It is not worth the trip for me to go retrieve one of them for a 100 mile GMC trip.

I brought my coach home last night to get it ready to go. It was very hot out so I tried the air and mine works great. Someday I ought to throw a gauge on it just to see what the numbers are. I have never looked at it after I installed Duracool 6 or 8 years ago. It just runs on demand so I never mess with it.
