The weather is turning nicer I hope everyone has time to get out and enjoy it, I know I am.

One of the benefits of the Riders is that most of our new members were outside of our post or not members at all. Most of our new members are now involved with our post directly and not just with the riders.

We are in N.E. Ohio. We have 14 members, and growing. Would be great to have other Posts. We admit, other then reg. VFW members, Men's Aux. and Lady's Aux. We do not admit social members. But we do have dues that are pro rated. We have site at www.vfwriderspost1090.com Any suggestions would be helpful.

Squirts,

I am glad you found a place in the VFW were you feel you fit in. I also hope you will tell your story to others who may join because of the VFW Riders Group.

Keep the shiny side up.

Kim

Has anyone else recieved the block from national about us? We in NY recieved info stating that they wanted an absense. Here's the letter we recieved:

Date: Friday, October 30, 2009, 3:47 PM
From the Adjutant General:
This is to inform you that the national organization is currently working to provide official guidance concerning the formation and existence of VFW motorcycle riders groups. Meanwhile, during this formulation period, we ask that all Departments hold in abeyance all movement in forming or organizing these groups.
In addition to looking at all aspects of riders groups, there are specific areas of concern for review and guidance formulation that revolve around the usage of the word “club” in the title of the group, joining associations that have the word “club” and the use of the VFW name and logo.
Please e-mail any questions, concerns or recommendations concerning this issue to Kevin Jones, Director Administrative Operations (kjones@vfw.org).
We appreciate your patience in this matter.

Allen “Gunner” Kent
Adjutant General

Thoughts? I think it kind of stinks.

We just started the VFW Motorcycles Riders here in N.E. Ohio. Any suggestions would be great.

I had the opportunity to stand guard for several days over the Moving Wall when it came around to a local town. During that time, I met and talked with some local VFW Riders and was impressed. It wasn't until a few days ago that I found out that duty on the DMZ in Korea qualified me for membership in the VFW. I am eager to head to the "V" to check out this group of riders and see if it may be something I can become active in. Thanks =) Squirts
