PRESIDENT S REPORT Hi everyone, not much to mention this month. Quite a few Glasshouse members went to Redcliffes Xmas in July. Was a most enjoyable evening, great food, great company, Santa even dropped in for a visit and to have some photos taken. We are getting ready for the Valley Rally, so as usual we are looking for donations, helpers etc. If anyone goes to their mechanic or favourite bike shop etc, ask if they have any promotional stuff they would like to give you. Most companies give out hats, stubby holders etc, would go great for our raffles. If everyone helps out in a small way, hopefully our Rally will be successful, we need the help and support of all our members to make this possible. If any one has anything they would like to change or have any ride suggestions, don't hesitate to speak up. All suggestions are welcome. We also have the Cartmill ride coming up, so if you could spare a couple hours to give handicapped kiddies a ride on your bike or trike, it would be greatly appreciated. So until next month, Cheers from Lyndell ( Storm ) Ward. #39365. SECRETARY S REPORT Hi all, Just like to remind everyone that our Branch Meeting is held on the first Wednesday of every month.
