CLUB MEETINGS

Club meetings have return to the regular schedule shown at the right and linked here.

PASSING OF LIFETIME MEMBER LLOYD K.

It is with sadness that the RRVCC announces the passing of Lloyd K. on 10/13/22. He was honored with lifetime membership in 2016. Lloyd served as the awards chairman for many years and he was a kind and smiling face at the registration table during our shows in more recent years.

THANK YOU TO LEONARD O. AND HIS ESTATE

The RRVCC would like to recognize and thank Leonard O. and his estate. Leonard was a lifetime member of the club, always involved, and constantly encouraging officers and youth members alike.
On his passing Leonard donated a substantial token collection to the RRVCC as well as other items. The disposition of this collection has not been determined, but will be addressed at club business meetings this season.
Please think about your own estate planning and consider including the RRVCC in the benefactors of your collection.
