ABATE Toy Run


The ABATE toy run was a big success with lots of motorcycles and a few cars in the parade. The weather was just right for a short motorcycle ride. A short club meeting was held before the parade started, see minutes for details of meeting. The parade left the convention center around 2:00 with a police escort though downtown and Gulpha Gorage to the VFW. Hot Dogs and chili was served and door prizes were awarded.


Lots of needy kids will receive toys thanks to ABATE.


ABATE Dist. 14 has been doing the toy run for lots of years. Thanks for doing a great job and keep up the good work.


Rosa said they have more needy families. If you would like to do more you can call Rosa at 501-627-5903.


The Diamond Chapter donated some money to help ABATE with toy for the needy kids.


Thanks to all members who helped.
