Meetings: 1st Sunday, 1p.m. at Windmill Bar & Grill, 6949 HWY 22, Oconto Falls

​

Greetings Region 3A! We held our monthly meeting on March 02, at the Windmill. We started things off with the Pledge, MOS and welcoming of members. In Communications, the next three meetings are on 04/06/25, 05/04/25, & 06/01/25.

In Products, they are still unavailable at the regional level. It is our hope that this will be resolved in the near future and sales at meetings along with events will resume. Safety/Share The Road, in Safety, as we get closer to the riding season make sure you and your bike are ready to ride. Dust the cobwebs off of your bike along with your riding skills. We will be having our annual Motorcycle Awareness rally on 05/04/25 from 11 am to 1 pm on HWY 22 at the Windmill before our monthly meeting. Come help spread awareness to remind other motorists its motorcycle season and to LOOK for us. In Share The Road, courses are being presented in the Region. We are working on getting more classes scheduled, if you know of a driving class, group, etc. who would like to see a presentation of the Share The Road class, please contact Cat at the information provided on the article’s header.

In Legislative, we did a recap of our annual Biker’s Lobby Day in Madison at the Capitol on 02/13/25. Since then, some of the bills have moved along, being introduced and assigned numbers. Right to Repair Bill has been introduced and is now referred to as AB135/SB129. The Fuel Choice Consumer Protection Bill has been introduced as SB82/AB83. The Bill Draft for Protecting E-10 or Less is still in the works. Now that we have some Bill numbers to work with, please reach out to your legislators and ask them to sign on and support our legislation. The success of this organization comes from all of us doing the work and following up with the Legislators. Make the call! Write the Email! Thank you for being part of our success! In Membership, as we get ready for the season ahead, stock up your vest, jacket, and/or bike with some trifolds or other paperwork for membership. You don’t want to miss your opportunity to sign up or renew a membership. Hopefully, we all get “ours” and don’t have to ask, did you?

In Treasury, the February report was given by Rachel outlining the money in and out for the month. In Old Business, the 32nd annual Fun Run book is in the works and should be available for purchase soon. The Brat Fry & Awareness Rally in May is still getting the details worked out. The 32nd Annual Amberg Pub Chilli Cook Off and Meat Raffle was held on 03/08/25. Our attendance and chili participation were a little lower than previous years, but a good time was still had by all. Our thanks go out to Nikki and her Amberg Pub staff Gail and Angel for keeping us hydrated. Our crew working on the Chili’s, 50/50’s, administrative table, set up & tear down, and meat raffles. Not to forget all of our chili competitors and everyone else there to enjoy and support the event. In New Business, nothing new to report.
