Bonnie and I became
involved with GWRRA in 2001 after purchasing DANNY BOY our 1977
gl1000. We attended meetings with chapter WV-E located in
Moundsville WV at that time, We became Chapter Couple not long
after joining. We represented Chapter E and also competed in the
District couple selection in 2002. This is when we discovered
the people side of GWRRA and started getting more active and
making many new friendships that are dear to us now and
hopefully for the rest of our lives!
We next became Chapter Directors for
WV-E for two years and then educators for
two years then taking the directors again for one year. We took
a year off then became Assistant Directors under Tom Porter and
Terrry Shafer. When Buz and Missy asked us if we would like to
take the position of Membership Enhancement it just seemed to be
our next progression in GWRRA and we were excited to have the
opportunity to serve the District and the many Chapters
throughout West Virginia.
We like that MEP
includes the FUN part of GWRRA and includes the area reports and
hot-sheets, The Couple of the Year, Chapter of the Year, The
Best Dressed selections, Newsletter awards and so much more!!
This will be a
learning experience for us and you also hoping that the new
online educational series of programs will help us learn to be
able to serve you to the best of our abilities and we are
hopeful that members and officers will take advantage of these
new and exciting programs as they become available to also
enhance your experience in GWRRA! Please contact us by Phone or
email with any questions that arise or help that you may need
and If we don’t have the answer we will get the right answer
back to you ASAP.
So in closing please remember to BE
SAFE....HAVE FUN and RIDE OFTEN
Mike and Bonnie Ackermann
