Passport Program
GWRRA has announced a new program, called the “Passport Program.” The program is intended to encourage the Members of GWRRA to ride more, primarily to GWRRA Chapter gatherings, events, rallies, their Honda Dealers, vendors, etc. The program will officially begin in March.
Passport books will be distributed to Members with the new Gold Book. The passports will have 64 pages, with 4 spaces on each page. Members can get Chapter Directors, District Directors, or Region Directors to “Stamp (or initial) their passport for each place/event they visit (attend).
This program is intended to encourage more riding, visitation, and participation by Members. It is also a vehicle for more camaraderie by having Members and providers get together to sign and/or stamp their passports and compare their travels.
Be on the lookout for your Passport and Gold Book in the near future. Then, when you receive it, join in on the FUN. See how many “Stamps” you can collect. Once completed, they can be sent to the Home Office to be entered into a drawing for chance to win a prize. More information will be forthcoming.

The Home Office has implemented a "Chapter Recruitment Contest". Here's how it will work.
The Chapter that recruits the most new members by December 15th of 2009 will have their 2010 charter fee paid by the Home Office and each chapter member attending Wing Ding in Des Moines will get $10.00 off their registration.
The chapter that recruits the most new members by November 1st of 2010 will have their charter fee for 2011 paid by the Home Office and each member will receive 50% off their Wing Ding registration for 2011. The winning chapter will also receive a handsome trophy with their name inscribed which will rotate each year to the next winning chapter.
The Chapter that gets the most former (fully expired) members to re-join by December 15th of 2009 will have their 2010 charter fee paid by the Home Office and each member will get $10.00 off their Wing Ding registration for Des Moines in 2010.
So, give it a shot. There are lots of riders (including Gold Wing riders) that aren't members. Let's get them onboard... and see if you can win some fine prizes too.
