A WORD TO THE HERD

Greetings Tandem Friends!

We are saddened to report that IMA, our inflatable COW mascot, has gone to bovine heaven. Everything else went extremely well at our 2008 Spring Rally in Door County. Thanks again to Greg and Nancy Miller for making this event a big success.

Now onto the next COWs event -- the Fall Rally in Chippewa Falls/Eau Claire area hosted by Linda and Lane Soltis-Schroeder. Please see the Rides section on this COWs web site for details. Last year at our Fall Rally in Arcadia, we had some great wine; maybe this fall we could have a Leinie's Red.

This first year of our presidency has been fun and rewarding. We even enjoyed the "liquid precipitation" at both rallies. See you mooooing down the lane!

John & Joan Laabs
