Yavapai H.O.G Chapter 1271.

The great thing about chapter activities is how much they reflect the passions and personalities of that chapter’s members. No matter where in the world you go, every chapter gives its activities a distinct feel and flavor.

Keeping that in mind, here are some quick peeks at some of the types of activities many chapters are involved in. This is only a sampling of the types of events that chapters offer. To see what a chapter in your area has planned, visit your local H-D® dealer.

Monthly meetings: Have a great time with your friends while getting the latest chapter news.

Dinner rides: Ride to eat. Any questions?

Parades: A great way to show your Harley® Pride and give your local community something to roar about.

Observation runs: A chance to ride and learn.

Toy runs: A popular activity that provides toys to sick or needy children.

Holiday events: Parties, group visits – all sorts of holiday fun.

Safe Rider Programs: When enough chapter members complete accredited  -courses, H.O.G.® awards special recognition.

Charity events: Do some good while having a great time!

Volunteering: Many chapters have a variety of activities you can volunteer for – anything from helping at an event to becoming a chapter officer.

Rides: Short rides, long rides, even overnight adventures – building memories and stories to tell. Isn’t that what it’s all about?
