The Auxiliary has lots planned for November. Nov 1st – Bus Trip, Nov 15th –Pretty in Pink Dangerous in Camo, and Nov 29th- Wine and Paint. Be sure to check the board at club for signup sheet for bus trip. If you have any questions on this or the other events, please feel free to call one of our officers or check the board or TV at the club for info. Also, don’t forget to catch the Eagle Riders garage sale Nov 15th and the Fish Fry every Friday night. The holidays are fast approaching and all at the club are busy with events to earn money to help the needy in the Tri-Cities so be sure to try to attend the events to help. The Auxiliary is growing steadily but lots of our members are delinquent, please check your receipt for the expiration day. Debbi DeYoung Madame Secretary
Hello Riders, It's been a rather quiet fall so far...many are still getting in some great riding. Our fall run was a beautiful weekend and we had a great ride on Saturday....276 miles! The October pub crawl was loads of fun and we had a great turnout. All proceeds from that will go to the Blue-bird Cancer Retreat in West Olive. Coming up on Saturday November 15th is our annual indoor garage sale from 9 am to 3 pm. Any donations can be brought to the club upstairs hall on Friday the 14th after 3pm. If you have donations and are unable to drop them on that day contact Patti at 616-607-9193 to make other arrangements. Please continue to keep those who are having ongoing medical concerns in your thoughts and prayers. Here's a rather humorous quote for the month from Reba McEntire....to thrive in life you need three bones. A wish-bone, a backbone and a funny bone. Ride safe! Tami Riemersma Eagle Riders Secretary
