    Well the morning started with Roger getting news a friend has had an accident.
    Poor Ron Smith from Springfield Missouri was coming back from the memorial ride and ran wide with the bike, needless to say he came off second best.
    Thankfully he’s doing well and will be out of hospital soon.

    Lachlan had sent me a txt during the night so I was so pleased to wake up to that this morning. He’s doing well at Kapooka, he’s nearly 6 week into his 10 week recruit training.

    Caught up with friends while Roger went to the hospital this morning.

    Raffle tickets to be sold before the banquet this evening.

    Banquet was yum, roast beef & chicken with lots of vegetables and salad…. YUM.

    Raffle draw happened then the Jack Daniels barrel was auctioned - donated to us by Rick Oliver. $1,500 USD bid on that plus the $515 from the raffle…. Not a bad start for the 2026 fundraising.
