It is always a joyful occasion when former members that have moved out-of-state come back to Illinois for a visit. This is just the case for long-time members Reinout & Henneke Vogt. They both retired a couple of years ago and moved to the Atlanta area and joined the Peachtree MG Registry, in Atlanta GA. Knowing Reinout, he wasn’t just going to be a member but a rather active member. He currently is a Technical Co-Director and Regalia Chairman. He also has his hand in providing articles for the club newsletter -The Registry- and submits articles for the CMGC also.

His reason for coming to Chicago was for a quick visit before heading to Prior Lake, MN to visit Gene & Becky Cooper. Gene was celebrating a 80th (I believe?) birthday. Gene & Becky were very active members years ago and are still current members.

Mary Kay Cobb organized a surprise dinner at Nonno Pino’s in Edison Park. A group of CMGC members gathered early to surprise the couple. I believe we succeeded!
