Text Box: It’s Been a Great Rider Education Season 
“Plans in the works for next season”
Text Box: professional and personal lives, they have a strong commitment to safety and preparedness and are a shining example for others to follow. Thanks to the leadership and commitment of Brad and Cheryl, Indiana has an outstanding Rider Education Program. We look forward to working with John & Laurel toward the continued success of the Indiana Rider Education program. 

After many outstanding years as the Senior Indiana District Educators, Brad and Cheryl have decided to step down and hand the baton to John and Laurel. One of the great benefits in being a part of this Association is the friendships you build working with other couples.  Lori and I have truly enjoyed working with them and look forward to our continued friendship. Being the jokester he is, Brad has always kept me on my toes and I’ve enjoyed every minute of it. His suggestions have resulted in me having pie smeared in my face, and demonstrated his leadership skills by giving personal instructions to the other District Educators on the proper technique of how to correctly administered said pie smearing. However I drew the line on his “Shave your head for Rider Ed” suggestion, I like my hair too much. Brad practices what he preaches and there is no better example for others to follow. He also set the example by participating in all of the Rider Events at our District and Regional rallies. Now that he owns an 1800, I look forward to meeting him on the Top Gun course and having some fun. Their service will be missed and we thank them for their years of dedication in furthering the GWRRA Rider Education program.
Text Box: For Lori and I the fall gives us time to reflect on the “Summer Riding Season”. We apologize for the lack of newsletter articles over the last few months. It has been an extremely busy season for the two of us. I’ll try to make it up to you over the winter months and share with you the plans we have for the Region. Communication is “key” in promoting one’s agenda so I need to practice what I preach and make time during the summer months next year.

Please join Lori and me in congratulating John & Laurel Kuehl as the new Indiana District Educator’s. They are a great couple and have served as the Assistant Indiana District Educators for Brad & Cheryl Meadows (former Senior Indiana District Educators). In both their
