News from your Asst. Director...
John Harris
Well here we are, snow last night night and rain again today, this
winter just doesn’t want to let go, but they say warm weather is just
around the corner. We’ll see!!!! Anyway a couple of things I wanted to
pass along to you from the officers meeting last night.
Bob got some more information about the Smoke Hole West Virginia
Resort which we are planning a trip to September 16th-18th. It seems
the resort is quite spread out and the cabins can be up to 3 miles apart.
Going as a group we would like to be in the same area and the only way
to ensure that is to make a group reservation, so give this trip some serious thought. We will
have the sign up sheet at the next chapter meeting and would like to make the reservation
soon after. If you can’t make the meeting and want to go e-mail me and I will put you on the
list. Also some of us have discussed turning it into a 4 day trip, Thursday to Sunday, let us
know what you think. The cabins that we would reserve can sleep up to 6 people, 2
bedrooms and a pullout couch, we were thinking 4 to a cabin.
Sunday, June 5th we are going to the Rainbow Dinner Theatre, in Lancaster, to see Dare
to Bare, sounds like a great comedy show. Group Tickets are $44.00/ person includes,
dinner, show, tax, gratuity, tea, coffee and water.Cash bar is available. A $5.00 deposit is
required by the April chapter meeting. Please call or e-mail Diane Leib if you are interested
in going. We will carpool or ride from Laugerman’s, Dinner 2:30pm, Show Time 4pm til
about 6pm.
Round Robin ride is confirmed for Sunday, May 22nd, leaving Laugerman’s at 11am. We
will be heading to Dave & Denise Laugerman’s in West York for appetizers, Bill & Janet
Kriner’s in New Freedom for salad, Bob & Nora Farrell’s in Stewartstown for main
course, and Tom Strickler/Arlene Schreiber’s in Hellam for dessert. The cost is $5.00 per
News from your Activities Director...
Paul Quickel
April is here now, hope you have your bikes ready for the riding
season. It is shaping up to be a busy month starting with an activities
meeting on April 4th at Laugerman’s at 6pm. Everyone is invited to
attend and help complete the activities schedule for the rest of the year.
April 9th is Doc Holiday's and Comedy Club, in New Cumberland,
starting with dinner at 5:30pm.
Also the Old Farts will be riding to Virginia Beach later this month so
check the ride schedule for all the details.
Anyone planning to go on the trip to Smoke Hole, West Virginia, needs to let us know if
they are interested in reserving group accommodations by the April meeting. It appears that
the cabins are spread over a large area so we might not be staying close to each other if we
don’t reserve as a group. You can still decide later to go and make your own arrangements
but we are trying to get an idea how many are going, and how many cabins to reserve. You
can go on line and check the place out if that will help you decide.
That’s all for now, hope there’s no more snow for the season!!
News from your Safety Director...

On Tuesday, April 19th at 6pm in the conference room at Laugerman’s I will be showing HOG’s

group adventures that improve your safety and enjoyment while riding in a group.
P.S. it only takes one hour of your time and it is FREE!
