 On September 7, 2008 our chapter met at the Coeur d’Alene Resort for a luncheon and presentation by the Patriot Guard Riders (PGR). One of our members, Larry Griffith, LCDR, LDO, USN, Retired is the Northeast District Captain, Washington State PGR. You will find two links here on our home page to the PGR videos Larry had hoped to show at the luncheon, but because of technical difficulties was unable to do so. But he has supplied us with links to view them at our own convenience. You might want to have a tissue handy for one of them.
 The meal at the Coeur d’Alene Resort was, again, one of the best we have had all year. The service is always some of the best too.
