The Marion American Legion Riders Chapter began in the summer of 2007. We are in our infancy but have big plans. Two of our stated goals are to ride in Rolling Thunder with as many member as we can, and to attend the Annual, National "Romp" in 2008. The Romp is the Rider's get together that is separate from the Legion Convention. It is designed around rides and bike events. This year is in Marshalltown Iowa on 29 to 31 August. If you'd like to know more about the Romp, click here. The Legacy Fund is a promise by the American Legion to provide a college education for any child who's mother or father was killed in combat since Sep 11th, 2001. One of the major fundraising efforts is the annual Legacy Run which is open to anyone to ride. Rolling Thunder is Sunday May 25th of 2008. I've been told that there were over 400,000 motorcycles in the Pentagon parking lot, the staging point before the ride through the capital. So, what we are is members of the American Legion, American Legion Auxiliary, and Sons of the American Legion who also ride motorcycles. We're not special and apart, just have something extra and use it to raise money for furthering the policies and publicizing the image of the American Legion. |
