Rolling
Thunders ride
to the wall has become a very large and important event. More
importantly the ride promotes involvement in the POW/MIA issue. Our
group addresses and actively lobby’s our congressman on issues that
impact the future policies of the U.S. Government and U.S. Military.
This directly relates to it’s handling of those servicemen and women
that become missing or captured during a time of war.
Every year our numbers have grown. This year we determined the safety
of all participants needs to be addressed. we will require all riders
to participate in one of three orientation classes that will be offered
before anyone is allowed to join our group on this event.
- EVERYONE
RIDING WITH OUR GROUP MUST
ATTEND AT LEAST ONE (1) RIDE ORIENTATION MEETING!!. The dates of the
classes are:
-
April 15 th
(following
monthly meeting)
-
May 20 th
(following
monthly meeting)
-
May 23
(8 PM at the Vet Center.)
- There
will be no
registration the
day of the ride. All riders will have completed one of the orientation
class and been issue the proper identification and set of ride rules.
- Any
individual or group
is
welcome to join our group along the route to Washington D.C. or the
return trip. However, they will be required to fall in behind the chase
truck and accompanying vehicles. This will ensure the integrity of the
main body of riders that have participated in the safety classes.
The
Rolling
Thunder
demonstration in Washington, D.C. is very important and dramatic, we
want to be sure that all that participate along with Indiana Chapter #1
will arrive and return safely.
