Sunday, March 18^th we will caravan from the Expo over to Cape Henlopen State Park and ride the beach. Ready to Ride at 11am. Bring a snack for in the saddle and lunch for back at the trailers. If you want to ride the beach and want a stall for Saturday night at the Expo you are welcome we just ask that if you are stabling at the Expo barn that you volunteer to help the group on Saturday during the Expo.

Stalls are $25/night and include bedding. Camp sites are available as well for those who want to camp I believe camp sites are $25/night and include electric & water but I need to confirm the price. The bathrooms may not be open this early in the season so the club usually gets a room at the hotel across the street for those campers that need a nice hot shower. There are several hotels within a half mile of the fairgrounds.

 Contact Jennifer Black for more information and forms jennyloumd@gmail.com or 410-279-4830.

 Forms will be coming out in the newsletter. I will need all stall reservations, release forms and checks by Feb. 11^th so we can send all the info onto the Delaware Expo.

They now have their Annual rides info. posted and the registrations forms are available there also. The Spring ride is June 15-17 . They also are having their Fall ride a little earlier if that works for more people, Sept. 28-30. Submitted by, Sheila Gilbert

The Group entry has already been sent in, and we need pay only the $20 for the entire group (also sent), no cost to individuals.

I ask that you all arrive at the Rally Point by 8:45, so we can convoy in and so be parked close together. Let me know that you’re coming, and send me your cell phone.  If you can’t make the Rally point/time, the directions to the Participant Parking are given on the parade’s website.  Lots of good information on the website.
