Thank you ALL for coming to the Gatherin' and opening your hearts to the kids with your donations, generosity and caring. .
The money raised goes to bring kids to the Texas Lions Camp, teaching kids to live full lives with with visual and hearing impairments, diabetes, and physical disablities.... and they have fun while doing this. The camp costs the kids nothing, and is supported by fine folks like yourselves that give to help others.

Mark & I thank you so much for your hospitality and all the hard work that goes into putting on such a get-to-gather. And thanks to all the good folks that showed up to make the event such a success. It was certainly good to see old friends and to make new ones. This was a great event and my first time there. I am sure that those who were there will come again and if you have never attended, you should...Mark & Jim Lynch

Mark and Charlyne, Thanks so much for welcoming us to your home and state. Texas is beautiful and it's full of some damn fine folks. That brisket was sooooo good and so tender I literally cut it with a plastic fork...wellll...I coulda used the knife but there ain't no braggin' rights in that  We had a wonderful time meeting old friends and making new ones. Hope to see all y'all sooner. (see how I slipped that y'all in there?  Special thanks to Hotglue and Speedy for getting us the resources we needed to dump that silly flat Avon (metal magnets! we're DONE with 'em!). Everything turned out great and now we have a war story to tell  Our adventure continues in NOLA..... Prochaine fois, les amis |

Mark and Charlyne we all had a great time.....you and Charlyne are top of line folks and your hospitality and generousity to us and all that attended is over whelming....all that hard work that you put into your event is above and beyond.....from the time we arrived to the time we left, you and Charlyne never stopped smiling...(maybe that Texas Kool-Aid had something to do with that ) We thank you for bringing us all together and we'll see ya at the Whiskey Run in June....thanks again. |

Had a good report of the GOTFs last night at the North Georgia Motorcycle Club meeting. Friends Jack and Anita and Larry and Jackie had a great time. Larry rides a nice Goldwing and commented he was one of only a handful of bikes that wasn't a Valk. He did find some comfort in the fact that the host rides a Harley.  Y'all treat people right over there in Houston; well done! |
