Hello and Happy Holidays to everyone!  New Member:  Mike Livaletti and Guest: Mallory Heith at Genesee Meeting. Two new members attended Shiawasee's meeting.  Woo Hoo!!

Mike's Awareness Report:  Calling anyone interested in becoming an Awareness Instructor!!  It is easy to be an instructor, talking to the people about watching out for motorcycles, etc.  There are classes in the mornings, afternoons and evenings, fitting it into anyone's schedule.  A HUGE thank you to Booboo for stepping up and training to be an instructor. Jessie will be stepping up as well! Thanks for giving a shit!!!  If you can help, please, Mike needs your assistance, call, text, email or Facebook him.  A.B.A.T.E. = American Bikers Aiming Toward Education.

Media/Events Coordinator Report:  The Halloween Party was Oct. 27 in Bancroft, not many in attendance, but there were a lot of parties that night.  Thanks to all who supported it.  Congratulations to a very special couple!  Christmas Party on Dec. 2, went well as Santa was on time, no sick reindeer this year.  Seminar is coming, hope you booked a room.  Remember, no one will be drinking and driving, as we have a hospitality room to crash in!  If you cannot make Seminar, remember to drive up on Sunday, Jan. 13 to vote for ABATE of MI board members from 8-10am. The Giant Swap Meet went well, only one side was used.  Thank you to ALL that helped out at the swap meet!

Sassy’s Second!!  Hurricane Sandy was a horrible disaster and we all pulled together to help, as we should.  However, we should be working together all the time, it shouldn't take a disaster for this to happen. Keep “Sandy” victims in your thoughts and prayers.
