Using Facebook and information from Paul and Mary Kruska and David Pickett, I am posting some National meet photos. The real story will be in the National magazine.
Oklahoma took the award for having the most members at the meet.
Then, they received awards for the show scooters.

It is a joy to travel to Carmine for the first ride of the season. I can personally count 25 people who attended and we had beautiful weather. This was the 16th Annual Carmine Ride hosted by James and Jane Press.

On Friday, March 9, 10 scooters took off to wander the surrounding area of Carmine.

The ladies had a fantastic tour of the Painted Churches in the area.



Saturday was another busy day.




Saturday morning after breakfast, 11 scooters took off for a day of riding plus a car show. There were some smiling, satisfied guys when they got back that afternoon.





More details will be provided in the July newsletter.
The next event is Water Valley, Ride to Eat. April 21 and 22, 2023. Call Raymond Love (806)759-8870.

Mary Kruska sent the photo of some Texas Cushman Club members who attended the Oklahoma State meet.
“We are constantly looking for new members just like TCC is, and as we transition through this change, our Texas and Oklahoma clubs are becoming more intertwined. I encourage our Oklahoma members to join TCC, and I invite our Texas friends to join the OCC.
Our dues are $15 a year. To join, there is an application for your convenience. And……………to the first 10 new members from Texas who send in their checks and tell Mike Estep that you read it in the Texas Cushman magazine, I will cover your dues for the first year!!!! Your check will be returned.” Paul Kruska quote from the 2023 February newsletter. There are still paid memberships to be claimed.

Debi Goode reported 19 people. Richard Kesselus will have a complete article in the July newsletter.
“The Friday ride was great. 7 scooters drove the local area. We woke up Saturday morning to a monsoon! Needless to say, ride cancelled 😭”

If it rains, we will have plenty to get us involved.
