I have a box of the ABATE newsletter (the Bailing Wire) that I’ll bring to the meeting.  Members should get a copy in the mail.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS.  We’ll talk about it at the meeting, but I’d like to thank and congratulate Adam Lutz for running for the 2016 ABATE Board of Directors.  I’m sure he will bring a new and enlightened freshness to the board. Since they filled all but one seat with the nominees, a vote was not required.  BUT, they have that one more seat to fill.  If anyone is interested there are instructions in the latest Bailing Wire.  Please read or pick up a copy of the Bailing Wire and follow the directions on how to “apply”.  They really would like to have the other seat filled. 

ABATE END OF SUMMER MOTORCYCLE AWARENESS PARTY.  Mark your calendars for October 24.  Plans are in full swing.  Monica has done a terrific job putting this together.  Most of the officers met this week to go over plans.  We definitely will need help at the party and before.  What can you do to help?  Lots of options so please come to the meeting or contact us.  WHAT YOU CAN DO NOW:  We need raffle prizes and any contribution would be welcome.  Please contact Monica at mjn980@yahoo.com if you can contribute a prize  or two or can help at the party.  This party is to benefit ABATE Local 6 so please so your part.
