Exciting Things Going on @ the Park


We are doing some exciting things at the Florida SKP Co-op! We have a beautiful park with lots of amenities that we truly wish to share. Our park is relatively small with 127 sites, plus overflow and boon docking. It is a wonderfully green park with open grassy common areas, lots of palm trees and spacious RV sites. Our park is in the town of Wauchula, which has been designated a “Main Street Community”. Wauchula was settled as far back as 1840. The town was developed around the Florida Southern Railway track built in 1886. The town has thrived over the years. The name “Wauchula”, is a derivation of the Miccosukee Indian word, (wa-tu-la-ha-kee), meaning “call of the Sand Hill Crane”. For the past two (3) years we have had Sand Hill Cranes nesting in our retention pond; so when you’re in the park, listen for the call of the cranes.


Cracker Capers for 2011 was a "hoot"!!!! There was a golf tournament, cupcake decorating contest, shows, auction & entertainment and LOTS of gooooood food!!!


We hope we have enticed you to come to our park and see for yourself what we have to offer. And remember, when you’re here listen for the call of the Sand Hill Cranes.

ALL CHAPTERS RALLY EAST (SKP ACRE)
APRIL 28, 2023 to MAY 2, 2023

TOM JOHNSON'S RALLY PARK
348 Resistoflex Rd
Marion, NC 28752
http://sites.google.com/site/rallyinfosite/

Jane Sloane coined the acronym of SKP ACRE (All Chapters Rally East).  The Tom Johnson Rally Park, Marion, NC has been reserved for next year April 28-May 2, 2011. Rumor has it that the Bear's (Betty & Bob) are going to do their famous Sausage Gravy and Biscuits next year at the Rally. Stan Bober, webmaster, has already been busy updating the Rally Info Site and adding pictures of this year's rally. There will be more to come so keep checking the website above.

As with all escapee events, it is the fellowship, caring and sharing, the willing volunteers and the SKP hugs that made this a special event. Every SKP that attended made the rally special in some way. Thanks to all that planned, contributed and attended. See you in 2011!
