Wow! Oct. has just flown by. We've already had the elections and installed the officers and to those congratulations. We've collected money for the Halloween Parade and won a plaque for the most money collected. For those of you who stood on the four corners I want to thank you for your dedication to our chapter. We entered a float in the parade and won 2nd place in the civic category and a round of applause to those of you who worked towards this accomplishment. I say look out next year, I can see the top prize in our future. On Nov. 3rd we collected money for Christmas For Kids and I want to say our chapter has some of the greatest people who dedicate time to work for our chapter. Christmas For Kids is going heavy and strong with our party on Dec. 1st. I once as a child was helped by a special man who bought my Christmas to make sure my Christmas morning would be special and I will never forget him for it. I want to say I have taken on an important office and I
know with the support of my fellow members and friends I will try to do my best to do a job well done. The holidays will be here soon so lets make sure we stay safe and God Bless. Darlene

Adopt- a –Soldier
One of our members sent a letter for a special request from one of our 1st Adopt-a- soldier recipients Tommy Woodward.
Connie:
I don't know if you met the soldiers that came in from Tennessee to the Red Dog at the first adopt a soldier fund-raiser, but Tommy Woodward (Lisa's brother), was very instrumental in helping us kick off this program and the chapter actually received a lot of community support for how the program was helping our deployed. Frost was one of the guys that came to the fund-raiser and as you can see from below, he is now deployed again. This is a special request from Tommy and I hope there is some way the committee can fulfill the request.
Thanks!
This letter was brought up at the November meeting. Our Adopt-a-Soldier program does only send care packages to local soldiers but we really loved the guys who came with Tommy to support our fundraiser so instead of taking money from our program because SSG Thomas Frost is not from the area we took a collection at the meeting and a care package will be sent.
Freedom Riders really appreciate all the soldiers fighting for our freedom and we are very happy we could do this.

ACTIVITIES
Welcome all new officers. Thanks for stepping up and supporting the cause for all bikers on and off road.
And to all that has helped in 2007. We’ve had a great year; our rides are the best in the area. The only problem I have seen is that some people want to jump out in front of the leaders! We will follow your leader! We will have all 2008 events in the Jan newsletter.
Thanks to all!

MiMi’s PR Report
We had such a great time at the Centralia Halloween parade. Everyone looked great in their costumes. We should have had a costume contest although it would have been hard to be the judge. The float was excellent. We took 2nd place in the civic category of the parade. Everyone worked so hard on the float. Thanks to all for the hard work. WJBD interviewed me the night of the parade. I got to talk for several minutes on what A.B.A.T.E. stands for and how proud Freedom Riders are to be involved in our communities’ activities. We would like to thank John Groff for taking time off to pull our float. Your truck looked great and all your help was greatly appreciated.
Thanks to all the members for making Freedom Riders 20th anniversary year so great. So many members helped and supported our events this year. Thanks for all you do to make Freedom Riders, A.B.A.T.E. of Illinois, Inc. such a great organization. I hope to see you at our Christmas for Kids events that are coming up.
I would like to congratulate all the new officers for 2008.
I would also like to wish Bill Jones a speedy recovery. Freedom Riders are thinking of you.
Take Care,
MiMi
