Ho ho ho all fair Knights,
With the lack of snow and cold for the annual deer hunt, mother nature would do well to send a little cold and snow for the upcoming holidays. Keep your spirits up, enjoy the festivities and be joyous and glad to be part of another year's good fortune (you HAVE a job AND a snowmobile).
WORK DATE for December 19th, meet at the shed by 8:30, final brushing, signing, lunch afterwards.
CHRISTMAS PARTY this year on Saturday, January 9th at Whiskey River Bar and Grill, west Stewart Ave. Cocktails and social hour at 6:00, with dinner at 7:30. Call Sherry at 675-6780 for reservations, meal choice- chicken, steak- included is a salad bar. We are working on a non meat choice or just a salad bar for vegetarians.
JANUARY TRAVEL MEETING on January 12th, @ Half Moon bar and grill, County Road KK Mosinee with 6:30 happy hour and 7:00 dinner with brief meeting. Ride if trails allow to and from meeting. When conditions are decent that is the nicest 50 mile evening ride/loop from the Rib Mountain area imaginable. Plan now to attend.
THE IRON BUTT AWARDED to Rib Knight's very own CHUCK BAUER. Congratulations for a superb job done last year on the 9 mile trail. We all knew he put in the time and effort. Now he is justly rewarded.
BENEFIT FOR RANDLIN HOUSE was a success and the Rib Knights Club presented a check for $250.00 to the non profit charity which benefits veterans in need. No doubt we will continue this annually. Thanks again to Dev Melohn for coordinating the event and also to Sharon Hieb for providing the impetus.
THE STEP PROGRAM which improves the way snowmobiles are registered and trail dollars designated is nearing final form in the Senate. Our AWSC approves this draft which includes a one time snowmobile registration and annual trail stickers administrated through the AWSC. Club members get the sticker with the club membership for $14.25. Non club members will pay $34.25 but be required to purchase through the DNR or an outlet to be determined.
