GWRRA MAINE DISTRICT NEWSLETTER
JANUARY 2010

 

Happy New Year everybody! As 2010 starts off with plenty of snow and cold weather we are hunkered down in a nice warm house with the wood stove burning steady. These are good weekends to catch up on some end of the year chores like putting the Christmas decorations away and writing another newsletter.

As we look back on 2009, it was a year that brought highs and lows. We began the riding season with cold wet weather that dampened a lot of potential riding and planned trips. Personally we had to deal with Barb’s breast cancer and the long and arduous treatments that are still ongoing. The good news is that as of today she has 11 more radiations and we will soon leave for the sunny south to rejuvenate. Looking forward to getting back on the Wing when we arrive and visiting with some old friends while there. Upon returning in the spring I hope and pray that the weather isn’t a repeat of last year and most importantly that we all are healthy.

We are still working on preparations for the 2010 and 2011 New England Rally’s. It will be nice having them both nearby so that everyone within our district will hopefully be able to attend. The upcoming rally in July is posted on the website for registrations and reservation info.

As we have emphasized before, membership enhancement is on the front burner for everyone. Whatever it takes to increase and retain members is very important.

Enjoy the remainder of winter and we will see you all sometime again in May. I can always be reached via e-mail, snail mail and cell phone, (207) 441-4451 if needed while we are away.
