Our May meeting is a week later than normal due to Mothers Day.

 

Our No Run Fun Run was pretty successful despite the looming bad weather. A big thanks to the CMA for bringing a large group of riders, you saved the day!

The Annual Blessing of the Bikes was a huge success this year, I got there at 10 AM and there was a large crowd! The cross looks great with it's new skin and they are very near to having the funding to restore the lighting.

 

 

The Shawnee Hills Chapter scholarship fund 2012 applications have been passed out.

 

Our membership has dropped to 98 and we desperately need everyone that is or was a member to renew and help sign up new members. Just because we have been so successful in Springfield in keeping our freedoms doesn't mean we don't need you. We have strength in numbers so when we go to our politicians we can show them our numbers and stress the fact that we vote, we win. I urge you to come to the meetings renew your membership and bring some  friends and sign them up too. Get some membership forms and hand them to every rider you see. Starting at the February meeting we will have a share the draw and member drawing and I hope to get some kind of gift for every new member that comes to a meeting as an incentive.

 
On Feb. 28, Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell signed HB-187 into law. Law enforcement agencies will soon be prohibited from establishing checkpoints where the only vehicles subject to inspection are motorcycles. The law takes effect July 1, 2012. Thank you to everyone who called and sent an email to make this happen!  This is good news.
