Lewis County ABATE
Coordinator Report
Tis the season to be jolly! It is that time of year again. Hope everyone’s Thanksgiving was good. I had more than my share of turkey and the fixn’s that go with it. Nothing a good nap couldn’t fix. Thanksgiving and Christmas are a good time to reflect on what we have to be thankful for. There is plenty of divisiveness happening today. Sometimes it is time to kick back and just be grateful for what we do have.
It is Toy Run season. Some of our members took part in the Oly Toy Run on Saturday the 6th. There are other Toy Runs happening before Christmas. Check out our EVENT page on our website for more details.
We are putting our float together for the Lighted Tractor Parade in downtown Centralia on the 13th. We want to make sure it is ready for Santa when he comes down from the North Pole.
Our meeting on Wednesday the 10th will not be at the Oakview Grange. We will meet at the warehouse where we work on the float. It is behind Pace Edwards on Bennett Rd in Centralia. We will escort the float on the 13th around Centralia and Chehalis before the parade. Drop by a couple of nursing homes so Santa can spread some Christmas cheer. More info will be posted on our Facebook page if you are interested in joining us.
Be careful out there. Be aware of your environment while you are riding. Remember to look out for the person on the road not looking out for you. Keep the rubber on the road!
