Saturday, January 9th, 2010 GWTA Chapter H, in Des Moines, Iowa had its first meeting of the decade. Newly elected Chapter Directors Pam & Bob Beverage presided over the meeting. This meeting was also special, because, for the 3rd year Chapter H has put together polar fleece blankets for Operation First Response. The blankets are made with two pieces of fabric and tied around the edges.
Operation First Response is a national organization formed to support our nation's wounded and injured armed forces Hero's with personal and financial needs. One of the first ways Operation First Response greets our soldiers is with a backpack containing a change of clothes, travel size hygiene products, a handmade blanket and a phone card.
Our meeting included some local business, discussion on our 2010 summer riding schedule and finished with a potluck dinner.

GL 1800 riders message board
This is a great site to connect with other Gold wing riders.. There is also a section called the Dark side- a group of cyclists that use a car tire on the rear for their 1800. They have discussions on tires and the improved safety and handling with this tire.

HAPPY NEW YEAR
Wishing everyone a very healthy, prosperous, successful, Happy New Year. I hope everyone had warm safe travels if they were out New Year's Eve and a wonderful New Year's day. This New Year's eve was amazing with a 2nd full moon in December making it a Blue Moon.. The next one is in 2028. There was also a lunar eclipse.
We hope everyone is staying warm and safe this cold winter in Iowa. We are looking forward to much warmer weather and the opportunity to ride again soon. Some of our members have moved south for the winter... wise ones!
We will have our first meeting of the New Year on Saturday, January 9th at the Chapter H club house. Starting at 1:00, doing our Operation First Response quilt project with meeting and potluck. We look forward to seeing everyone. This will be Pam and Bob's first meeting as CD's and we know they are going to be great!
See everyone soon!
