The June meeting was held on the 10th at Rice-Ebner. Our VP held the meeting as our president is still out in Indiaouisianna (supposedly working but rumor has it that he is touring Legion Posts as a self appointed QA specialist) Pokey, Seaweed, King, Kye, Colonel were in attendance and dispensed with our buinsess pretty quickly.
Over the last month - as noted here - we participated in the Slatington Chapter ALR Poker run which was very nice and enjoyed... excellent event - we learned how to do such an event and the possibility of doing our own next year was discussed.
On Friday the 8th of June, Seaweed, Colonel, Pokey, That CD Guy and "submariner" (I don't have a nick name for our new member Jim yet - he is a submariner that served sometime after the Hunley was commissioned - lots of possibilities lol - Jim comment with your nickname!) rode up to Hoqendaqua Post for the Lehigh County Flag retirement - it was a good ride and nice event. We mentioned our thoughts of a poker run and shared planning with the Post ALR president and recieved a positive reaction. (He reads this site it seems - so let me say hello and thanks for having us up on Friday) We have some work to do to plan dates.
Finally I added the event for a ride up to Orange County Choppers - the date is tentative and may change - I just put in on as a placeholder.
