We appreciate everyone's support all year long and want to give back for all your hard work honoring our Veterans and supporting their families! We know there are other events happening this day and we're not in competition with anyone. We don't expect everyone to stay the whole time, but please DO consider stopping by to say hello, have a sip and then if you wish, continue on with all the other festivities being offered this day!
Date: Labor Day, Mon, 4 Sep 23
Time: 0900 - 1500
Eats Begin: 1100
Clean-Up Begins: 1430 +/-
Location: Island Pavilion, Stillhouse Park, 4050 Simmons Road, Belton, TX 76513 (http://tinyurl.com/IslandPavilion). You can see the entrance to the shelter under that little triangle on the map. Tell the gate attendant you are going to the PGR/Patriot Guard Riders at the Island Pavilion and they should let you in free. If you're coming before 1000, contact Holler for a gate code so you don't have to wait at the gate. Stay left after the "Swim Beach" and you'll see the pavilion on the right just before the Marina as you are coming down the hill. Please close the gate when you come in.
DO invite others regardless their affiliation. Remember, attend one mission and you ARE a member, whether you don MC Colors or are Independents!
Cages are always welcome!
Bring your swimsuits & boats!

We don’t care what you ride or if you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a hawk or a dove. It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your income is; you don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect.
