Bee Cee Beemers Club Members:
All those who can help out blocking the small intersections so the Toy Run doesn't get a huge police bill, should meet for breakfast about 8am ish at the Coquitlam Grill, 2635 Barnett, our traditional
meeting place, about a kilometer west of the mall. North side of Barnett in the strip mall near Timmys.
We have to set out before the main ride leaves at 10am sharp, hence the early breakie. We traditionally get about two dozen volunteers, but will need more this year as many of our members are out of town as it is a long weekend. Pray for sun as the forecast right now is rather grim OUR SECTION OF HASTINGS IS INVERMERE TO SPRINGER, OTHER CLUBS HAVE OTHER AREAS, THE LAST FEW RIDERS SHOULD JUST HEAD WEST AND FILL ANY HOLES LEFT AS BBY CITY ALSO MANS SOME INTERSECTIONS |
