Friends for Fun, Safety, Knowledge

Tuesday, January 24, 2012  OK-B monthly gathering

We had 31 chapter participants at our gathering last night. Combine that number with the 19 visitors and we had a fantastic crowd.  Started a new incentive program for chapter participation - check the February newsletter for details!!  Mike Ewing (OK-E) won the 50/50 drawing.  Larry C & Judy D won $100 gift cards to Shawnee Honda in a drawing done by our guest speaker, Yvette from Allstate Insurance (on of our sponsors).  Judy D won the drawing through the new incentive program and won a buffet & drink from Golden Corral.  We were all winners last night though, because we were with friends and got to laugh and have fun!  Come join us! - SDC

Thursday, January 19, 2012 Dinner Ride to San Remos, Shawnee, OK

23 people gathered tonight at the new location of San Remo's Pizzeria. Although their menu is somewhat limited (very limited compared to what the restaurant that burned down last year had), their pizza is very good. I heard the baked ziti and chicken alfredo is up to standard for them also. Bonnie won the 50/50 tonight.

6 of us went to the bowling alley afterward to practice the lost art of bowling. There is real potential there. (You can read into that whatever you wish).  You shoulda been there!

Tuesday, December 27, 2011  Chapter OK-B Monthly Gathering

42 were present at the gathering tonight.  39 of those were OK-B participants. We welcomed 3 from OK-H visiting us.  Leo took home the boomerang award for having his cell phone ring (again) and answering the call.  Earl tells us we have 16% of our group now at Level IV in the Levels Program.  Woo-hoo!  It just feels great to ride with a group that takes safety seriously.

Thursday, December 15, 2011   Dinner Ride to McLoud

Tonight was an outstanding night for OK-B.  We had a dinner ride, coordinated by the Fredman family to a (very) local restaurant.  We went to Curtis Watson's Restaurant at I-40 & the McLoud Rd exit.  We were treated to exception service and very tasty food.  There were 25 of us there. As always, we made an awesome presentation in our gold chapter B shirts.  We missed you if you didn't make it. - SDC

Thursday,  December 1, 2011 Shawnee Christmas Parade

OK-B was asked to escort Santa in the parade, which meant we were entry #70 of 70 entries tonight. By the way, this position is one of great honor. The parade began at 6:30 and we finally made it to Main Street about 8PM. With so many oohs and ahhs coming from the spectators, we were smiling from ear to ear and doing our thing, on our Wings. Lights blinking, motors purring, two by two we went East on Main street for about 7 blocks.   27 riders in all. I believe that was 15 bikes/trikes. Impressive!!!  I only hope everyone else had as much fun as Kaylie (tinsel girl)  & I did!!   -SDC
