A new chapter is beginning for me with the Motor Maids – District Director. “Some of the duties as DD are to cover all events possible in the district, meet members in the district, arrange sectional meetings whenever possible, promote interest in the club and endeavor to get women interested in owning and riding motorcycles of their own.“ It doesn’t sound too difficult plus it gives me a lot more reasons and destinations to ride. The exciting part is we are a group of women who have one thing in common … a love for motorcycling!
2011 Convention in Grand Rapids was an election year and, except for the Vice President and Supply Officer, all sitting Executive Officers chose not to run for office and new Officer’s were elected. With new officers comes new ideas and change!
The Executive Board meeting is held in January at various locations … usually on the East Coast. The Executive Board consists of the Executive Officers, General Counsel (former Presidents), District Directors, and former District Directors. This year the meeting was held in Tampa … a cold Tampa! Of course, it was in the 70′s the week before – and after - the meeting. I did attend the last two EB meetings as an Assistant District Director and this was my first one as PA District Director. I thought the new meeting formats were well organized and very informative.
I am looking forward to the excitement and challenges as the District Director as well as working with the new Officers … a new beginning!
