Bill, how do new WBCCI units get started? I live in the Houston TX area and
recently joined the Texas Gulf Coast Unit but it is headquartered in Zavalla
TX. It seems with a large populated area here around Houston, a local unit
would be a natural. Don't get me wrong I am happy to be part of the Gulf
Coast unit and look forward to participating in some of their events, but I
know there are a lot of Airstream owners in this area who do not belong to
the WBCCI. There are five Airstreams parked at the same storage place where
I keep my AS and none have WBCCI numbers. Your unit seems to be doing the
right things and as saw on your website your unit was the first new WBCCI
unit in over 20 years.
