Breakfast Meeting:  Saturday March 13th, at 8:00 AM at the South Everett Denny's #7868, located at the SOUTH WEST corner of I-5 Exit 186.  Address is 132 128th St. SW. Phone is (425) 355-2210.  Gather round Cats and have a great breakfast.  The "after breakfast ride" will be a pre-ride of the Early Spring Fun Run.   This will be an all day ride as we won't get started until about 10 AM.  Please have a full gas tank, or at least nearly full.  We will stop somewhere on the ride for lunch.  After all GWRRA also stands for "Gold Wing Restaurant Review Association".  I hope the weather gods smile upon us; the forecast as this is being written is "rain ending Saturday morning".

 

Dinner Social:  Wednesday, March 17th (St. Patricks Day - wear your green) at Sparta's Pizza and Spagetti House, 17630 Highway 99 in Lynnwood.  It's about a half mile NORTH of the Lynnwood Cycle Barn on the WEST side of the street.  Phone is (425) 745-1880.  We have been here before - good food!  The hosts for this event are Gary and JoAnn Zerfoss. 

Staff Meeting:  Thursday, April 1st (this should be interesting!) at 6:30 PM.  Meeting is at Phil and Judy Holmes home, 6905 122nd Dr. NE in Tulalip.  Phone is (360) 659-8079.  From I-5 Exit 199 go WEST on Marine View Drive to 23rd Ave. NE.  Turn RIGHT (N) on 23rd Ave. NE to Sturgen Dr.  Turn LEFT (W) on Sturgen Dr. to 22nd Dr. NE.  Turn RIGHT (N) on 22nd DR. NE to 6905 (on the right, RV Trailer in driveway).  This will be the FINAL MEETING before our "Fun Run".   A big turnout would be welcome.  We need to collect the Door Prizes if they haven't been turned in  already.

 

Early Spring Fun Run:  Saturday, April 10th, this is "The Big One".  We are a small chapter; we need an all hands turnout to pull this off.  We will be meeting at 6:30 AM at the Buzz Inn Steak House, 17216 Smokey Point Dr. in Arlington.  Phone is (360)  658-1529.  The Buzz Inn is in the same shopping area as the Smokey Point Cycle Barn, the ride's starting point.

 

Visitations:  We still have 2 visitations left before the Fun Run.  They are as follows:

           Friday, March 12th - Chap. Y in Enumclaw, Crain Corner Restaurant at 39929 264th SE. Dinner at  6PM, meeting at 7.

           Sat. March 27th - GWTA Chap.B in Stanwood, Jerry Andal's at 27021 102nd Ave. NW.  Breakfast at 8 AM

 

In Other News:  The February Dinner Social had a better turnout and, as you can see above, we are continuing the event.  Bud has had second thoughts about the 600 mile round trip for breakfast.  The latest information I have puts Bud and Sandy's move to Hayden, Idaho in the late April to May time frame.  That means Bud will be resigning as Chapter Director SOON.  That means we will need a new Chapter Director soon.  Any volunteers?

 

Sorry for the late  mailing;  I had a hard time getting inspired.   That's All.       RON
