Let me say thank you to all of the members who took the time to vote at the elections and for their vote of confidence in allowing me to serve the club for this upcoming year.  I am looking forward to working with all of you and hopefully have an opportunity to get to know all of the new members.

I am looking forward to having a good relationship with all of you and be able to join our efforts together in making the club even stronger this coming year.  I have plenty of ideas and want all members to have their input into this year’s events and outings.  It’s going to be a tight financial year for everyone and I need everyone’s input and great ideas on how to complete the tasks at hand.  I want all of you to support as many activities as you can, since participation is what makes all of our efforts and hard work worthwhile.

I also want to thank those involved in putting our BBQ together.  It was a great success!  My hats off to everyone who joined in on the fun.  Bill can cook a mean BBQ and the food was fabulous.  Linda Proud was the game wizard, as always.  She can come up with the wackiest stuff.  What a blast.  Again, thanks to all!

Please be sure to visit the website often.  I plan on adding programs, campouts and rides as the year goes by.  I want this year to be fun and different.  We have the opportunity to give back to our community and more, too.  Start rolling up your sleeves and come up with some great ideas that we can do locally on a monthly basis.  This gives folks a more diverse opportunity to enjoy the great Florida outdoors.  So, come on out and join us, and participate in good riding and fellowship!
