WEST VIRGINIA CHAPTER B IS THE 2007 REGION “N” CHAPTER OF THE YEAR!

 

At the WV-B Chapter gathering on Saturday, March 15th, Region “N” Director Frank Albert presented the Chapter with the large bronze Region “N” Eagle Trophy, seen on the podium, for being selected the 2007 Region “N” Chapter of the Year!  Also, West Virginia District Directors “Buz” and “Missy” Mowrer are shown presenting a large “Loving Cup” to the Chapter for being selected the 2007 West Virginia Chapter of the Year.

WV-B will now be entered in the International Chapter of the Year selection process.  And at Wing Ding #30 in Greenville, SC, the National Chapter of the Year Director, Jim Hutchens, will announce the overall winning Chapter of the process.  WV-B is now 1 of 13 Chapters being considered for the International award.

 

2007 was the first year that GWRRA had a selection process to choose a Chapter of the Year at the District, Region and National levels.  Although the program is still in its infancy, it has gotten off to a great start.  The program is designed to recognize the top 10 Chapters in each District and the top Chapter amongst those 10.  That top Chapter is then evaluated with other top District Chapters at the Region level and a winner is selected to go onto National.

 

The qualification process for a Chapter to become eligible is very simple and the areas of scoring points are the basics of Chapter life that is expected of any GWRRA Chapter.  All Chapters can easily qualify to be in the program and the Chapter’s day-in and day-out events, activities and rides are the basis for those points.

 

We want to thank each Chapter that submitted paperwork for the 2007 Chapter of the Year selection process and we encourage every Chapter in Region “N” to become qualified and begin keeping track of its Chapter life and activities for 2008.  WV-B will now have an article each month in the Region “N” Newsletter and their calendar of events will be featured each month as well.  I’d like to see all the other Chapters in Region “N” give WV-B a real “run-for-the-money” for next year’s presentation! 

 

Join us in congratulating WV-B and to wish them Good luck in Greenville!
