April Director’s Letter
Thanks to all who attended the April
chapter meeting at Nowhere bar and
Grill in Victoria. The officers met
earlier with Denny, Scott and Ralph at
Reimans to go over advertising for the
Roger Reiman Memorial ride on June
13, 2015. We have developed a plan
to be included on the card Reimans
sends out for the bike night event they
are having that day, posters to be
made and put up throughout the
various business, radio and Facebook
advertising. In fact check out on you

ride:

Remember to look at our calendar for
ride dates and plan to come along
