Calendar of Events

May 2004

A/V HOG Activity Group, 9 AM, is at the Knights of Columbus hall east of highway 14 on avenue M

Dennis will be going to the AV meeting this weekend. I need to know if anyone else is interested in ordering AV HOG shirts or hats. Call me at home (375-3950 in the evenings) if you want to know what's available and the prices (if you didn't fill out the order form at the last meeting). Dennis will be turning in the order and a check from the club to cover the orders. Your personal payment to the club for your order would be needed at the May meeting or shortly thereafter.

After the AV HOG meeting...there's a ride to Kernville. RAG members wanting to participate...meet Sunday at Jack-in-the-Box 7am.

The city of Ridgecrest is going to proclaim the month of May Motorcycle Awareness Month on 5 May at 6:30 pm at the council chambers. Dennis met with representatives from the ABATE, Vietnam Vets MC and the City Council, Dan Clark, last week. Dan has put through this proclamation and has asked that we have as many riders and their bikes attend the city council meeting on Wednesday 5 May. Our current plan is to have folks show up at approximately 6:00 the evening of 5 May, for a photo-op. We will be parking the bikes on the traffic circle outside of the City Council Chambers. It would be great to have that circle completely filled with bikes. The proclamations are usually the very first thing on the Council's agenda. Dan is going to call up reps from each group, read the proclamation and then let each group rep say a few words about their organization. Both Bland and Dennis will be on travel, but I (Debby) plan on talking about the HOG being a family oriented group that loves to ride and about our work for local charities in town. Please come and provide moral support - I'm not real comfortable at public speaking!

We will also be putting together a ride around Lake Isabella and a BBQ on 23 May in honor of the proclamation. We will be donating any proceeds from the ride and BBQ to the local Boys And Girls Club. We would like to have the ride start at City Hall and end at Mickey's Pub and Grill for the BBQ.

Cruise Night, 7 PM, at Pony Espresso, north of the Albertson's parking lot on north Norma Street.

HOG Board Meeting is Fri. 7th Nov at 6 pm at Sizzler.

HOG Club Summer Schedule Meeting at 8 AM at Charlie's Restaurant, Carriage Inn, 901 N. China Lake Blvd, CA. (760) 446-7910.  

AV LOH Poker Run, 8 May 04, going to head to the poker run after the meeting.

After the poker run is a cruise night and bike games at Coach's in Rosamond

First Breakfast ride to Ranchhouse Cafe in Olancha

First Dinner Ride to Silver Saddle in Cal City

Might as well mark this one on your calendars too. Jim and I belong to the Moose Club also and the nice people at the Barstow Moose are doing a benefit for the local Make A Wish on Sat., May 22. The cost is $15 per bike, one up, or $20 per bike two up. It is also open to cars. The cost includes a poker run (one of the stops is the famous Iron Hog Saloon), car or bike show entry, and lunch (they are doing a pig in the ground.) They will have live music, lots of raffle and 50/50 drawings, George's favorite, THE BUD GIRLS!, and if that's not enough, the Knights of Columbus next door are doing some sort of Casino Day! Sign up is at 8:00, so I thought we could leave Jack-in-the Box at 6:30, maybe meet up with some A.V. people at 4 Corners Arco at 7:30 and go from there. Hope everyone will come out for this great cause.
