Chapter Report

Hello Everyone!

​

It is that time of year again. We get to escort Santa during the Lighted Tractor Parade. This is one of our favorite times of the year. Santa flies down from the North Pole to hitch a ride with us. It is always rewarding to see the excitement on the faces of the young and old when Santa comes by to light up the sky and put smiles on everyone’s faces. We are honored to be named the Grand Marshall of this year’s parade. We dedicate this year’s parade in memory of Shelli Ackerman. Join us in downtown Centralia on Saturday, Dec. 14th.


The Olympia Toy Run was on Dec. 7th. Rain or shine, the bikers always show up to support the kids for Christmas. We had our new popup on display for recruiting and future events.


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 just around the corner. 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!

​

Merry Christmas and have a mostly sane New Year!
