NEW... I should have looked a little closer at the calendar before the last club meeting so I could have announced this then. The first Friday of the month falls on the 2nd of January. I am guessing that there will be a lot of people that will still be gone for the holidays or have family still around and not wanting to come to a meeting. I know I don't go back to work till the 5th and I would think there are a lot of companies that are doing that. A lot of schools don't start back up till the 5th also. So the January club meeting will be changed from the 2nd of January to the 9th and then we will have club elections on the 16th. Enjoy the holidays with family and friends. You all have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Daryl Walter
President, Jeeps Motorcycle Club

Jeeps Club Members we need your help...
We have activities every weekend during the month of September. We really need your help getting the Club facilities and tracks race ready. If you signed up to help with one of these races one of the Club Officials will be contacting you prior to the race, so please remember to keep your calendar clear so you can step up and provide the help you committed to when you joined the club. Also, if you would like to help (so you can get your membership card stamped) please keep an eye on the Jeeps Club Forum area for work parties or available volunteer positions at one of the races.
- Loss of valued Jeeps Club Member...
As many of you have heard the Jeeps Club has lost one of it's most active and valued members. Early Saturday morning, while out on a early morning motorcycle ride Greg and Patty Gilman were the victim of a hit and run motorist, who ran their Harley into a guard rail on the I-135 & K-254 Interchange. Patty Gilman was pronounced dead at the scene. Greg is in St. Frances Hospital with broken ribs, sternum, punctured lungs, dislocated clavicle, and other injuries. He has already had 2 operations. The first was on his femur and hip and the second was on his back where 4 vertebras were damaged.
Some new members might not know who Greg and Patty are. Greg was the president of the club for the last 6 years and the 2 years before that was Vice-President and on the board before that. Patty has held a lot of different positions. Most recently was the chairwoman of the board. Also was secretary of the club and did any and everything from do sign in to fix the tractors. She did it all and we will miss her deeply.
If you would like to read and / or send Greg and family a message, please feel free to post on our message forum here is the link to the message thread.
If you would like to use online services to donate to the Patty Gilman Memorial Fund. Please use the PayPal Donate button below. You can use all major credit cards without needing to signup for a PayPal account.
We have also set up a memorial fund for Patty Gilman at the Chisholm Trail State Bank in Park City. If you want to contribute to help the Gilman family here is where to send your contribution.
Make checks out to Patty Gilman memorial fund and send them to:
Chisholm Trail State Bank
6160 N. Broadway

Park City Parade... The Jeeps club will be in the Park City Parade again this year. It starts at 9:00 AM sharp Friday morning. Please come dressed up in your ridding gear and have your motorcycle or quad ready to ride in the parade. You need to be there to get lined up at 8:30 at the latest. We line up South and east of Cracker barrel. There is a grade school south of 61st street that you can park at if you have a big rig. I will try to get more details as to where to meet. Last year we had about 15 riders. We could use more than that. Here are a few more details. I will go by the senior center that is just south of 61st and hydraulic to find out where we are suppose to line up at. I will do that at about 8:00 AM Call me and I will tell you where. 316-288-0730. I won't know exactly till I get there. If you can't get a hold of me you can go by the senior center also and tell them you are with Jeeps Motorcycle Club and they will tell you where to go. You need to do that early because the closer it get to 9 the more clogged it will get. I think the easiest for people with trailers will be to go to Chisiam trail grade school and park there. The way to get to the grade school is go south on Hattan Dr. Hattan Dr is between Spangles and Cracker Barrel on 61st Street. I will come over there to get everyone.
