Technical Tip of the Month:  Propane Gas Detector.  Do you know where yours is located.  They can be tested by pushing the button on them.  They also only last for 5 years.  They can be replaced fairly easily.  This is also true of Carbon Monoxide detectors.

Also for those that have smart phones, there are many apps available for RVers.  Examples include: Good Sam’s Road Service, Leveling your rig, Gas buddy to find cheapest gas in the area, and a satellite finder.

Meeting was adjourned.

Rebecca Messerle
