Now that the years main events, Washingtons RT XXIV & our 12th Annual "Salute To Veterans Ride & Expo" are past memories, we have to focus on the rest of the years activities that will certainly effect the men and women that are serving and that have served our Nation in uniform,  That focus is to make a difference in their lives. We have the necessary tools and the motivation to do whatever we can to show our support and

appreciation for their sacrifices.

Our Support takes on many aspects, from attending events that are both celebratory to events that are extreamly difficult to at times, comprehend. Our mission dictates our goals and as shown in the past over many years, Chapter 3 New York's " Can Do" attitude has proven itself in the past to be above the bar when it comes to doing the right thing for the men and women that have also done,

"the right thing"

Over the next months we have our two major Summer Picnics at Castle Point and Montrose, a veterans wellness picnic at Castle Point, monthly theme parties at Castle Point, two major Christmas Parties at both Castle Point and Montrose VA Campuses and many events that will allow Rolling Thunder NY 3's good name and agenda to be brought to the attention of those returning from war as well as those in the public that need educating about the POW/MIA  issue and the 88,000 Americans still unaccounted for, that will never be forgotten. as well as the issues faceing our returning warriors.

We are the front line in fulfilling Rolling Thunder's "Mission Statement" and showing the Veteran Community that we do care and will do whatever it takes to achieve our goals.  We can make a difference in the lives of those that have protected us while we slept.

This is our common bond and is unwaivering.
 Safe Ride,
Ron
