10th Annual Missouri State Rally
June 5th – 7th, 2009
Ste. Genevieve, MO.

We had our 10th Annual Missori State Rally this year at Ste. Genevieve, Mo. This event was on June 5th thru the 7th. And what a wonderful time we had.

I hope all enjoyed it that went. And for those that didn’t you missed a great time. 🙂 I want to thank you all for making this a great event once again. You all are truly wonderful people.

I will start by letting you know what all happened at this event.

We had goody bags for everyone that registered, and door prizes for everyone!! Thank you Dee King and Jill Ivey for making the map holders, they are great! I want to thank my granddaughters, Chandra and Tekera for helping at the rally, they love doing this! And also Jerry, my husband, he has been a great help to me through all this. As one member said, when asked who my Asst. State Ambassador was, she said Jerry. And I agree! He is a wonderful Support Member.

Food was catered in by Cashott’s Catering of St. Mary’s Mo. Her name is Annette. She did a wonderful job and it was greatly appreciated by all.

We had a total of 58 registered. With a total of 54 in attendance.

Gifts were given to:
T-shirt design – Joyce Shook. Great design I might add, and if you will notice the bike on the front is purple! (in case some don’t know that’s my favorite color) Early bird registration- Dee King. First one to get a registration to me.
And she was fast!!

Trophies were given to: (Once again the color of these is purple, as I stated at the Rally I want you to see this color and remember me, since I did announce this would be my last year as State Ambassador, start thinking of stepping up and taking this position, (someone), The state does need a State Ambassador.

Each year we have a touring contest, this contest can be found on the website. It consists of different towns each year. This year it is towns that are boys and girls names. It is a lot of fun and a great way to see your state. It helps to read maps, learn to ride in different situations, such as country roads, urban and city driving. Not to mention weather skills, rain, cold, and heat. It is definitely a great way to see all the sights and towns of your own state. All information can be found on the list, except where the towns are, that’s for you to find. Have a great journey and safe riding doing this.

I want to thank Donna Harris once again for making a wonderful quilt to raffle off. She does an excellent job and has been very gracious to do this for me the last few years!! We all love them. Thank you Donna!!
