Missouri Hi-Lo club
 

Are there any clubs in Missouri or, are there enough people interested in starting one?

Tom,

Before the Hi-Lo Company website went down (after the announced the factory closure), I downloaded the company's list of Hi-Lo Clubs. None were listed in Missouri. However, in your neighbor State of Iowa, there are two listed: Kings and Kueens in Auburn, and Hi-Lo lobos in Council Bluffs. Also not too far from you are the Hi-Lo Hobos, in Omaha, and the Hi-Lo Friends in Stieger, IL. Its also possible that Hi-Lo wasn't aware of all the clubs around the country... or had clubs listed that had gone inactive.

The locations listed above were the cities where a club officer (usually a president or secretary) had their own mailing address at the time. My personal experience is that clubs are more regional, with members spread throughout a general geographic area. I belong to the Rocky Mountain Hi-Lo Club, the closest club to our home in Idaho...700 miles near. So you may have to become an outpost member of a club several hundred miles away.

If you want the contact info. for a specific club on my list, let me know and I'll send it to you via HTF private messaging. I'm not sure how many of these folks would like their home addresses published in a public forum.

Hope this helps,
Jim

Hey Jim does South Dakota have any clubs ?

Hi Paul,

Sorry, the Hi-Lo Club page from the old factory website listed no South Dakota Hi-Lo Clubs. The nearest ones to you would be Omaha-Council Bluffs area (club names listed previously to TJM), the Minneapolis area (Minnie Hi-Lo Club), or the Denver area (Rocky Mountain Hi-Lo Club). Actually the Rocky Mountain Club does have an "alumni" member whose home base is Sioux Falls!

Let me know if you would like a contact person for any of those groups.

Hope this helps!
Jim

Hi Jim

Thank you

Hi Scott
Not sure which Jim you were asking the above question, but We are here in VA and would be interested in seeing a mid-Atlantic club started. I have been searching the membership list for owners in the surrounding states and found several in the tidewater area, NC, WV, and MD. You can email us at loghm@aol.com and lets talk about getting one going.
