Chapter Report

Hello Everyone!

​

IWelcome to 2025. Hope everyone had a great Christmas, and we hope 2024 was kind to you. The year is starting out a bit wet and windy. Doesn’t seem like much of a winter so far. We still have plenty of time to get some snow and cold winter weather.


We won the “Best Float” plaque in the Lighted Tractor Parade. The city streets were lined with people of all ages to see Santa and Mrs. Claus. They were not disappointed. We dedicated the float to Shelli Ackerman. She passed away after a tragic accident on the way back from Sturgis. She is missed by family and friends.


This is a slow time of year for events. You can check out the EVENT page to see what is happening. The big Swap Meet will be March 23rd at the Evergreen State Fairgrounds. You can always get a deal on whatever you want or need for your bike.


ABATE of Washington’s annual event, Black Friday, to speak to our legislators will be Jan. 17th. This is an important time for us to be able to speak with our legislators and let them know that it is important to support motorcyclists’ rights and support ABATE. Please make sure you are a registered voter and join us on Jan 17th at the capitol building in Olympia. Here is a link to some more information about Black Friday


Winter is here. For those of you who like to ride year-round. Be careful out there. There are plenty of hazards to be aware of. Always watch out for the car that is not watching out for you. Be safe and keep the rubber on the road!
