DIRECTOR'S CORNER

Hi Gang,

Only a few weeks until our poker run and everything seems

to be coming together. Our next meeting will be April 16 and that will be the last one until the run. So we need to have all the details finalized. Remember to get the donations in so we can have everything set up before that week. Also, we’re getting a lot of new members at our meetings. Please take the time to make them feel welcome. Just think how scary some of us must look to them. “ Remember your first meeting”?

I have brochures for every local State Rally if anyone is interested in details. Just call or ask at the next meeting.

ADIRONDACK POKER RUN

It was voted at our last meeting to keep our annual fund raiser a poker run for the Double HH Hole in the Woods Ranch. Everyone seems to have fun with playing poker and we’ve had great luck in the past with it.

The menu has changed a bit and it sounds delicious. Baked ziti, meatballs, sausage/peppers & onions, pasta salad, rolls, lemonade, ice tea, soda, coffee and plenty of desserts. So far we have lots of food volunteered and we need lots more. Remember, we’re talking motorcycle riders and they sure can eat!! Fran Donbeck has a list of

what’s needed and what’s spoken for. If you feel generous, please call her at

798-8088 or Debbie Harrington at

793-7564 or Carol Casey at 793-3684. Little things like cheese for the baked ziti is needed, butter for the rolls, so if you can help out at all, please call. If your not a shopper and would like to donate money instead, that’s ok. Debbie is a great shopper and doesn’t mind at all. If most of the food is donated, it’s all the more money we will have to hand to the kids at the ranch. And don’t forget the infamous dessert table. If everyone were to bring a plate of cookies or brownies or cake, can you imagine the sugar high!!??

Fran will accept door prizes any time. Gift certificates, homemade items, a gift you received for x-mas and don’t like are greatly appreciated. Enclosed is a complete write-up to bring to any business in your area that explains what we’re about.

The Next Monthly Meeting

The next meeting is scheduled for April 16^th at 9:30 AM breakfast at Jack’s Place in Corinth. Meeting is 10:30 sharp and we have a lot to discuss. Fran is still looking for a few volunteers. The board meeting is on April 14^th at 7:00 PM at McDermott’s shop. Bring your ideas!!!

WANTED

Hey ladies, when you’re doing your spring cleaning and you come across a small or x-small leather jacket that you don’t want, please call John Borlang at 747-0482. He told me he’s looking for one for his daughter who will be riding with him a lot this summer, but I get the impression it might be for him! What do you think??!!
