I am coming up there with two other firefighters I am trying to get more lined up. I am planning on standing in front of the National Fire Acadmey where these protesters will be to act as a buffer zone, I will be in my full firefighter gear along with my other firefighters. I am trying to get more firefighters to help me out to aid here. I am wondering if you folks can send some help up there to me as well so I can have a stronger buffer zone?

I can coordinate with you if you like. These people call us "Fag Enablers" and they pray for us to die. Please email me back as soon as possible to help aid. Or if you know of others in the area to aid. My email address is jameshalfaday@hotmail.com or you can contact me via my cell phone at 909-575-9417

A Faithful Firefighter,

To Legion Riders going to the convention lets get together and have a social hour after 17:00 on Saturday.

Rich,
call me during the day, if you can, at 804-734-2448. I cannot say for sure about a Charlottesville Chapter- we won't have a good current picture of the ALR until the conference later this month- but I can give you some emails, possibly some numbers, to call around and make inquiries.

Just saw this site but I'm wondering if it's still active as the last post is from last summer. I belong to Post 74, Charlottesville VA. Are the Legion Riders active there?

Randy,
It was nice to meet you and I look forward to working with you in the future. Nice meeting / Great People / Good things to come.

Talk to you soon!
Herbie

I would like to ask that an event I sponsor over here each year get added to your calendar. August 14th this year we are holding our 4th annual Relay for Life Hope Run. It is a Poker Run on the back roads of the Eastern Shore where you get to take in farmland, marsh, seaside and bayside waterways and wildlife scenery. Registration starts at 10:30 AM due to the distance some riders come, (northern Delaware and a few from Virginia Beach). Last bike in is normally 3:30 PM and the ride runs somewhere between 55-70 Miles depending on that year’s route. Before and during our awards and door prize announcements we have either a band or DJ, this year the establishment is providing a local southern rock band. Additionally, and this part is now our signature of the event, we have a seafood buffet with steamed shrimp, clams, scallops, and sometimes crabs along with swedish meatballs, hot wings, salads, sodas, etc. There is beer and wine served as well.
Since this is our 4th year we have asked some cancer survivors to be our servers this year. The first year we had 51 bikes show up, then 94, and last year 103. As always with these things, volunteers are always needed and we are growing some to where we can handle more riders. Last year’s event raised $64.00 shy of $3,000.00 for the cause. This year thru sponsorship of the plaques, food, T-Shirts and Ride Pins we hope to beat the elusive $3,000.00 mark.

Some hotels and campgrounds on the island always offer a discounted rate for anyone traveling far enough they would like to stay overnight.

So, here it is, ALRs, your are invited to attend and ride to have fun, see different country and raise money for a good cause. If anyone wishes to assist, they are very welcome as well.

Thank you and keep ridin’!
Scoty

Thanks go to Scoty for this Event
