We had 16 bikes and about 20 people enjoy a great ride to this year's Burn Camp. Among the campers there to greet us was Chief Hood and his family. Thank you Chief Hood for your support and participation. Also among the campers was our brother member David Madero and his wife Jill. They spent the week working at the camp representing our club as well as the Fire Dept. Thank you David and Jill, we are proud of all the work you have done.
We saw some campers from past Burn Camp rides, and it was good to see the progress they have made over the years. We also had a chance to catch up with some counselors and supporters that we have become friends with in the past.
After mingling with the campers and having a hearty lunch we presented the TBSS Children's Burn Camp a check in the amount of $11,250.00, this was possible through everyone's hard work and our donor and supporters generosity. Thank you all.
Fire Chief Charles Hood and his family visited the Texas Burn Survivor Society's Camp David in Kerrville, Texas on July 9th. To view the story go to KSAT 12's website listed below.
Thanks to all you guys efforts we had a successfull Fundraiser again this year. Despite the heat and humidity we were able to raise over $8,500 for the Childrens Burn Camp. We are hoping that when everyone settles with their tickets we will be able to go over $9,000. If you still have outstanding tickets, please contact Terri to settle up so we can have a grand total by next meeting.
Speaking of the next meeting, due to Burn Camp Ride being on our regular meeting date, we are going to have our regular monthly meeting on July 2, at 6;30. The meeting will take place at the VFW Hall. We will discuss the ride to Burn Camp as well as our fundraising efforts.
Once again big thanks to all our members, family, friends, all the other M/C clubs and Riding Groups who came out to help make this BBQ a great success. I would also like to personally thank Leons Ice House, Joe and Laurie Kierstead, as well as Fundraising Chairman Rick Garcia and Committee Chairpeople Monkey Joe and Sharon, Greg Hernandez, Georgina and Kerry Yoast, and all the smokeaters who spent countless hours cooking up the vittles. THANKS
