Gentlemen, we know that most who attend the annual Veterans Rally Point on Sept. 11th will likely return home that evening, being a day event (1145hrs to 1600Hrs). For those who plan to stay after the event closes, VP Battle will lead a short, but nice, ride to show you where the Hard Knocks play. While I am riding again, it is difficult for me to roll long distances due to last years accident. I'm still healing and will be back to normal soon but for now, Battle has you covered and I got your 6.
After the ride, we'll roll back in to the event venue for food and drink and, being a Saturday night, there's lots of split tail running around for all the single Brother's. Good food, drink and Brotherhood. Who could ask for anything more?
For those Brother's spending the night, we have established a block rate at two of the local hotels. They know we're here to party so...

Brothers, Come join us in Clarksville TN for TN5’s 4th Annual Patriot Day Ride on September 11, 2021. Proceeds and donations to support the Smoky Mountain Service Dogs which is a non profit organization that trains dogs to specific needs of each veteran recipient. They will have a live service animal presentation at the event. We will have a Poker Run, raffles, auction and some amazing Brotherhood. We have raffle tickets available for an engraved 9/11 memorial Glock 21 45ACP pistol and a TR Tactical 12 gauge shotgun. Hope to see many of you there.
Over the past 2 1/2 years the Eagle Nation has lost 34 brothers from 25 chapters. We must always remember our brothers. As we did in 2018 and 2019 we will once again hang a dog tag for each of our brothers on the trees that are used to make wreaths for Wreaths Across America. One tag on one tree, these trees are living memorials for each of our brothers, these trees will NEVER be cut down and will forever memorialize our brothers. This area is always open to us so we may visit our brothers, this area is only for our brothers.
It would be great to see representation from at least each chapter that has lost a brother and any other brothers to attend to Remember.
Tree Tagging is Thursday, 9 Sept, and Maine States Annual is on Saturday, 11 Sept.
Wreaths Across America HQ is in Columbia Falls, ME.
The area is very rural, with few amenities, The closest town with amenities is Machias, ME. there's only one bar a handful of restaurants and two hotels;
The Bluebird Motel, 231 Dublin St, Machias, ME 04654, 1 207 255 3333. and Machias River Inn, 103 Main St, Machias, ME 04654. 1 207 255 4861.
MAKE YOUR RESERVATIONS ASAP!!! There is no block of rooms, etc.
If you have any questions, please get with Brother Flanker or brother Drifter (Maine State President). Also asked around to other brothers that have attended, I know they'll tell everyone what a great experience it was, and a must attend at least once.
A rough agenda is:
9 Sept - Meet at Wreaths HQ at 0900hrs for Museum Tour, 1030hrs (or so) Ride to Tip land for Tagging, (times not finalized)
With 34 Tags, it will probably take 2-3 hours. Once done with tree tagging you can head down with Maine State and the rest of the Northeast brothers for their annual or hang in Bar Harbor and Acadia National park for a day then head to Maine States Annual.
Open House will be the second Wednesday of the Month starting at 1900
