Black Swamp CC 06 Welcomes New Members.

Hello 06,

Recently I was contacted by a couple looking for a local group to ride with. After a few E-mails back and forth we decided to meet at the Crossroad Cafe.
So tonight Gloria ,Kent and myself met with Paul and Carolyn Jones and did what I do best. We ate and talked. What a wonderful time we had.
We discused the club, trips, bikes and camping experiences among a few other things.
So now I ask you to give a warm welcome our newest members;

Paul and Carolyn Jones jcjones@paulding-net.com from Latty, OH.
Thanks,
Irv

PS. To our members that are recovering. I hope you are all doing well.

Gary Ginter, Pastor and Treasurer for the Black Swamp Cruiser Club (right) presents a check from the proceeds of the event to Lloyd Marvin, hospice volunteer as club members look on from behind.

Biker Sunday 07

I just wanted to say a big THANK YOU to all of you who braved the weather to come and join our 2nd Annual Biker Sunday this past Sunday. The riders may have been few, but, as they say, 'A good time was had by all!'

For those of you who missed this years' event, I think everyone walked away with something. Kent Long won the Charity Poker Run ($60 in Wal-Mart gift certificates), Angie Hover came in 2nd ($40 in Wal-Mart gift certificates) and Ryan Andrews came in 3rd ($20 gift card from the Red Pig in Ottawa).

The charity run and raffles raised just shy of $500 for mission projects we support. And again this year, I don't think anyone walked away hungry!

So once again, a sincere thanks to all of you.

In His Service,

Gary 'PreacherMan' Ginter

2007 Ride Schedule: This first year was a tough one for me as I was pulling off the role of both President and Road Captain. I hope that I have not turned anyone away for next year by my ride selection. My hope is to get more people involved in selecting rides and by that I have made a spread sheet of dates for next year that I have ask Mark Burley to post on the website. My intentions are for members to pick a date to be responsible for organizing the ride. I can lead if you don't feel comfortable being in the role of road captain. The ride will be entirely up to your discretion - day or overnight ride. An overnight ride will require the organizer to research hotel or camping accomodations so that members can plan for the ride in advance. I have already heard rumors of Holmes County in eastern Ohio.
