Monday July 13th, Goldrush in Lexington, Kentucky

Everyone was up early and went to breakfast and then the Convention center. It was great to have CB's and between other GWTA members, help locate the Center. We parked in a parking ramp near the center. Registration went smoothly and we had a little time to visit before going in. Iowa sat together. Chapter H, Friendship Riders of Iowa, had 10 members present at opening ceremonies. We received the schedule of events and found that next Year, Goldrush returns to Billings, Montana.

Congratulations to our Region C Family of the Year, Doug and Michelle Sullivan and daughter-
for being selected as the 2009 National Family of the Year.

At opening ceremonies, Region C donated over $1,000.00 for Helping Hands.
We went and checked out the Vendors and the guys all drooled over the chrome and lights.
There was even the opportunity to do some crab racing, with some of the proceeds going to Helping Hands.
We decided to do a short ride back to the campgrounds.
The horse farms are amazing with either white or black painted wooden fences surrounding the farms and horses. The fields are mowed so the blue grass can grow. The horses are treated like Royalty... It was beautiful.
We went to the Man o War Harley Tailgate party... Good BBQ and saw the Bowwow girls perform in the parking lot.
There was a light parade and ice cream stop afterwards. Some members attended the ride.
