DIRECTORS MESSAGE

May, 2022

    

Greetings fellow Riders and Legion Family

May marks the traditional beginning of "riding season" in Nebraska. Oh, sure, we have had some nice riding weather since the beginning of the year, but because a huge majority of motorcycle riders are what one might call "fair weather riders," the warmer temps in May will be bringing more and more motorcycles on the road. Whether you are on two-, three- or four-wheels, keep your focus on the road and watch for other vehicles sharing the road. One tip I recently saw was to teach your children to watch for motorcycles by making it a game. I remember "Slug Bug"... whenever we saw a VW Bug on the road, we'd slap our sibling crazy. Well, not really, but it usually garnered a friendly (or not-so-friendly) tap on the shoulder. I think you get the idea. Anyway, motorcyclists, please watch for cars... car drivers, please watch for motorcyclists. May is also the beginning of parade season. Your American Legion Riders will be participating in at least two parades during May. First up will be in Omaha on Saturday, May 28th, at the Patriotic Parade & Concert. We will be joining other Nebraska ALR chapters, the US Army Fife & Drum Corps, the Mounted Color Guard from Fort Riley (KS), and others to honor America's heroes. We will also be participating with the Lincoln Memorial Day Observance. 

I guess that's about all for now. 

Ride (and Drive) Safe! 

Bruce Gubser Director, Lincoln Chapter 3, ALR

Your American Legion Riders continue to participate in a number of events honoring our fallen, most notably at a recent funeral of a veteran who died without family nearby. I thank those who were able to honor the service of our veteran brother. 

Until next time,
Ride (and drive) Safe!

Director, Chapter 3 American Legion Riders 

Post 3 American Legion Riders

WHO WE ARE AND WHAT WE DO

We are NOT a motorcycle club!

We  are a part of the nation’s largest wartime veteran’s service  organization, members of the American Legion “Family” (Legionnaires,  Sons and Auxiliary members) who have joined together to ride our  motorcycles for fun and fellowship and to remember and dedicate our self  to our original purpose. Service to Our Country.

Being a part of the American Legion, the Riders are committed to:

1.      Mentoring youth and sponsorship of wholesome programs for them in our         communities,

2.      Advocating patriotism and honor,

3.      Promoting strong national security, and

4.      Continued devotion to our fellow service members and veterans.

True  to the Legion's grassroots tradition, each local Riders chapter manages  its programs at the post level. Annually the Post 3 Riders are part of  many projects and events.
