On May 15, 2021 Hawthorne Nevada held its Armed Forces Day parade, and chapter 989 was in attendence. 

Thanks to all who participated in the Heros Cruise in Virginia City on 29MAY21.  We had a little bad luck up on the Comstock …several of our flag poles were bent beyond repair when we hit a low hanging power line which has never been on the route before!

  

Rested at Famous Daves after the cruise

 

The Memorial Day Cruise at the Northern Nevada State Veterans Home (NNSVH) went beautifully.  We had 26 (some classics) vehicles and 14 motorcycles in the 1400 Cruise.  Both Channel 2 and Channel 4 had some very nice coverage of the cruise and the residents for the home were most pleased to know they are not forgotten…especially, on Memorial Day.
