TShirts

Here's a small picture of a T-shirt we can get. It is just like our cards. Call Bill Levy if you want cards.
Top line:
Fossils Scooter Club
Under the line says:
no dues no meetings just rides

The current price is $9.49 plus shipping.
Here's what I will do: Anyone who wants a shirt(s) should email: shiftlesssister@gmail.com with name and size. They come S/M/LG/XL/XXL [add 1.99]

At the end of each month I will send in the order so we will only have to pay shipping once. Sometimes I get a 25% off coupon. So I'll order the total and divide the cost by the number of shirts. The more ordered the prices goes down and shipping will be really cheap. No profit is made. shiftless sister

Cleveland quilt show ride

Hello FOSSILS
Yesterday's ride was great. Bill, Bill,Lynn and I met at Harrison Bay and took off over White Oak Mountain. Some of us came prepared for rain. Bill Levy was saying the mist would blow out and he was right. As we rode the sun came out and it was a glorious day. It was so calm; few cars and a few bikes, but for the most part it was us and our scooters. It was the first Saturday in March so entry was free. Its free on all first Saturdays.

We were welcomed by several docents and shown how to vote for our favorite. There were many rooms of quilts. I think the oldest quilt was from the early 1800s and passed down through family hands. There were many made just for this competition. One, number 47 was so intricately cut and sewn it looked like solid pieces of fabric, not pieced. There was a room were women were learning the crochet and many other classes are held. To support the museum I bought 12 applications for a handsewn quilts made from found but torn quilts. Bettye Crawford came later. Bettye really loved the exhibit. She wants to learn to quilt and does Lynn. Who knows maybe they will create something for the FOSSILS.

The museum also has the history of copper in our area and other appalachian artifacts. There are 5 minute videos in each area.

There are many other things to see in Bradley and nearby Polk counties.
Let's plan another ride. Check back later for new member updates, club offers, and the 2009 1st quarter "In the Wind" salute.

sadness

Yesterday I learned of the death of Ellen Pitman. She was a long time scooter enthusiast, and daily rider, and wonderful person.
Bill and I most often saw her on the pink Buddy on McCallie at the end of the day.
"In the Wind" is posted in her memory.
