2012 Activities Calendar

Last Updated January 23, 2012

The Activities Calendar is a work in progress and will be updated with new rides and events as they develop. Any chapter members of La Crosse Area Chapter H.O.G. cam add to the Activities Calendar, by contacting Dave Sarnowski . Use your 'contact' links on the far right of the calendar to email the contact person for more information about an event. Place this page in your 'favorites' and check back often.

Chapter activities are conducted primarily for the benefit of H.O.G. chapter members. There are three categories of activities, all activities are identified as follows:

"Closed" events are those chapter events which are open to chapter members and one guest per member. (C)

"Member" events are events open only to H.O.G. members. (M)

"Informational/Open to all" events are events listed as reference dates and are not sponsored or supported by local or national H.O.G.

Chapter activities are highlighted in red.

If you are interested in becoming a H.O.G. chapter member, contact La Crosse HOG.
