Leavenworth’s a Big Deal

Master travel and event chief Bob Moloney rose to urge – no, check that – to brow beat members to call without fail to secure their lodging for the planned “Invasion of Leavenworth” on May 17, 2002.

In what started as a visit to the new “ranch” of Tony and Marcia Banks on Icicle Creek, quickly expanded to a full-blown “mass make-up,” as more than 50 Rotarians have indicated an interest in traveling to Leavenworth, attending a Rotary meeting, staying the night, and making their partners happy with a shopping trip to fabled Leavenworth. That’s all on the docket, as arrangements have been finalized.

Bob urged members to MAKE HOTEL ARRANGEMENTS WITHIN THE NEXT FEW DAYS! May is a busy month in Leavenworth, so, if you want a room overnight, you must act NOW!

Highlights of the visit include a rare evening meeting of the breakfast-oriented Leavenworth Rotary Club, of which the aforementioned Mr. Banks is now a member. The meeting is set for the Red Tail Canyon Farm, an old-style working ranch known for its chicken and ribs BBQ cookout and great hospitality. Prior to that event, a reception will be held at 4:30 Friday afternoon at the Bankses’ ranch (“Hey, it’s just a few acres … just room for us and two llamas – Tony Banks”).

After the make-up, Rotarians will retire to their overnight accommodations, to rise the next morning for breakfast on their own, shopping, golf, or any of the other fun things available in the area.

This will be a biggie, so don’t miss out on the fun. Get your hotel reservations now. Call the Linderhof Motor Inn, 1-800-828-5680; Best Western Icicle Inn, 1-800-558-2438; or the Rodeway Inn, 1-800-693-1225. All three establishments are owned by Leavenworth Rotarians, offering special “Rotary Rates” for the visit. GET CRACKING, GANG!
