While attending the 2008 OR State HOG Rally, I previously posted about a couple of ladies (Linda and Lynette) who introduced themselves and we chatted for a bit about “save-the-date” cards they were passing around to restaurant patrons. I had just finish eating dinner at Hamley’s Steakhouse in Pendleton. As volunteers of the Pendleton Kiwanis Round-Up Club they were making sure all the bikers would get the word on the Bikers in the Blues Rally set to take place on July 10-12, 2009.
I didn’t know much about the Kiwanis. With a little research I learned they are a group of international volunteers and all about serving children of the world. That’s a good thing! Through ordinary people they are helping develop the future generation and from library book programs to at-risk youth they are involved in the community to make it a better place for all.
They don’t have a web site up yet, but I committed to doing a shout-out on the Rally…a small part to bring some visibility to this good cause.
You can obtain more info by emailing: bikers in the blues (all one word) at Q dot com. It was great to meet the Kiwanis Girls.
I guess you learn something every day. I’m so glad you got to meet the Kiwanis girls too! whoo hoooooo…..
