Wing Fling is Almost Here

Wing Fling 2011 is just days away. Your District Team has worked hard to put together an a FUN and memorable event. It is the culmination of over one year of preparation.

Facilities - This year we have a fantastic facility for Wing Fling. We have lots of hotel rooms, six working elevators, plenty of air conditioning, spacious seminar rooms, a fantastic banquet room for our talent contest, best dressed competitions, and closing ceremonies and more. We have on-site dining and multiple other restaurants within walking distance.

Vendors - Our vendors are located in the paved hotel parking lot, just a few short steps out of the hotel. We even have a couple of indoor vendors this year.

Contests - For the last several months we have been highlighting various contests and events in the District newsletter. We have a Pinewood Derby, a Chapter Shirt Contest, a Chapter Collage Contest, a Mascot Contest, a Chapter Clown Contest, a Newsletter Contest, a Banner Contest, a Crazy Hat Contest, a Scrapbook Contest, a Website Contest, a Clown’n Downs Competition, a Goodie Contest, and a Talent Contest.

Seminars - On Friday and Saturday we have numerous seminars; Leadership Training seminars, Rider Education seminars, Motorist Awareness seminars and some that are just for FUN.

Bike Events - As usual, we will have a Bike Show and the always popular Lighted Bike Parade and Show. Plus, back by popular demand, we will have a “Pit Stop Challenge”.

Thursday Night Meal - On Thursday evening we will have a real sit-down meal. Due to the fact that the District must pay for the meal in advance, only those pre-registered by June 7 will receive meal tickets. So, don’t delay in sending in your registration.

Ice Cream Social - Friday we will have our hand scooped ice cream social in the parking lot with our vendors. Come and allow your District Team to scoop you a dish of ice cream. Then, add some chocolate topping or candy sprinkles.

There is plenty more too. How much more? Come and see!

Raising Funds for Rider Education
Rider Education should be of paramount importance to every motorcyclist. Here in Georgia, we are making a conserted effort to provide Rider Education activities in the form of Rider Courses, Parking Lot Practices, Educational Seminars, Road Captain Courses, and CPR & First Aid Training. This year, to help offset the cost of providing these types of training, the Georgia District is raffling a 2010 Escapade LE cargo trailer. This trailer has partitially been provided by Gary's Hobbie Shop (thank you Gary and Barbara). Tickets for the trailer can be obtained from any Chapter Rider Educator or from any Georgia District TEAM member. Click on the photo to view a larger image. (Note: this is the actual trailer being raffled.)
