Schedule Committee
Dave and Marge have created a Survey for each of the members to fill out and send back to them. This will make it much easier for them to create a ride calender that will have something for everyone. We would like to have the calender together before the Motorcycle Show in Chicago takes place. The WOW booth will give the calender to women who are looking for chapter in our area.
Please fill out the form and send it back ASAP.
Any questions , please contact Dave at 815-337-2883.

Lynn Love, our Illinois WOW rep, suggested we share our calender with other Illinois and Wisconsin chapters. They will do the same for us and we will have a better knowledge of what's available to us.
