Monthly Message for December 2010

I am sorry for combining the two months in one message. November was a busy month
for me. This message is longer than usual, so please read to the end.


November was a busy month for the owners group as well. On the 2nd, not only were
the nation’s midterm elections held, but also the Gateway Ducati Owners Group held
a meeting at the Triumph Grille. As I was out of town, Mark Shomaker, VP, led the
meeting. The summary of the events have already been published on the website.

Meeting Notes from the November 2nd Meeting

We had another great turnout for our monthly meeting at the Triumph Grill for our November meeting. It was nice to see some familiar faces and nicer to see a few more unfamiliar ones. I'm happy to see our club constantly growing and new people showing up to be a part of it.

Club Dues

During the last meeting, an annual club dues amount of $20 was unanimously approved by the attendees. Fred, our treasurer, asked us to remind everyone that he will be on hand at the next meeting to collect dues for 2011 and give receipts.
