JOIN US FOR SOLDIER RIDE THE HAMPTONS Saturday, July 21, 2012 The Metro Parrot Head Club has followed the lead of long time Soldier Ride supporter Jimmy Buffett by providing volunteers for this event for the past four years. Soldier Ride is a unique cycling opportunity for Wounded Warriors to use cycling and the bonds of service to overcome physical, mental, or emotional wounds. The rides are exhilarating and a great way to help warriors gain confidence and realize they can do this. Soldier Ride started in Amagansett. Hamptons Ride has grown to become the largest in the country. Last year around 1,200 cyclists participated including about 30 Wounded Warriors from the US. Soldiers Featuring from both the United Kingdom and Israel also cycled. This year 1,500 cyclists are expected including 50 Wounded Warriors from the US and larger contingents Steel Pulse from the UK and Israel. Weʼre looking for some volunteers to help with this event. Opportunities to help include: Saturday, July 21 '12 Early morning: Register riders, Organize parking and possibly help with the pre-ride breakfast. Gates 6:00PM open at 7AM. Yes, itʼs early, but you avoid traffic. Rain or Shine You also get to witness the spectacle of 1,500 riders lining up and riding off. Ocean View Farm Around noon, volunteers can staff a water stop in Amagansett, NY Napeague by Cyrilʼs. Weʼll distribute water, energy bars, etc to the riders. A platoon of Marines have signed up for the ride to honor their fallen comrade Open Bar Jordan Haerter of Sag Harbor. Great American BBQ Around 2 pm volunteers can help welcome riders Live Music back to Ocean View Farm by distributing water and sports drinks. We can also enjoy the community picnic. $125 per person Later that night, volunteers are needed at the Rock the Farm concert (see ad on right) featuring Grammy Award winning reggae group Steel Pulse. Concert TICKETS - ONLINE organizers are working on “special guests”. Sell raffle ONLY!!! For details visit tickets, tend bar (that might be dangerous) and more. www.stephentalkhouse.com To volunteer and for additional information, contact Joe Lombardi at: [email protected] Last April, 24 METROs participated in the Spring Clean-up of our adopted highway. Thanks go out to all who came out for the clean-up and to everyone who has ever picked up a pointy stick and risked puncture wounds over the past 19 years that we have been picking up litter. The METRO Parrot Head Club was the first club in the nation to adopt a highway. It’s good to see that all these years later, our efforts are still going strong. We’ll be having our annual Fall Clean-up on Saturday, September 29th, so save that date. Like last year, the clean-up date coincides with the Sag Harbor American Music Festival. In 2011, the music festival featured all types of music at seventeen different venues. Organizers are trying to build on that. There’s sure to be something for everyone. Unlike last year, no sunset cruise is being offered at this time. Some of those who attended the Spring Clean-up expressed interest in having a cruise again this year. In order to make chartering the boat financially viable for the Club, we’ll need 30 - 35 people to commit to the sunset cruise. If anyone is interested in the cruise, contact Joe Lombardi and [email protected]. If enough people want to go, we’ll give the cruise a try. If not, we’ll just clean the road and enjoy the music festival. PARROT HEAD NEWS!!!!

  • Parrot Press
    PARROT PRESS Metro Parrot Head Newsletter August 2010 NY, NJ, CT Vol. 18 No. 8 TALES FROM MY BANK OF BAD HABITS Well, the last couple of weeks were pretty busy for us Metros. Maybe busy isn’t the correct word, fun may be a better word. It was a pleasure sitting under the trees in the Fresh Pond Park at the family picnic, trying to stay cool in 95 degree weather. Many spent the afternoon in the water, a sure fire way to cool down. Lon didn’t. He spent that hot day cooking on two charcoal fires, and we certainly thank him for that. Joe coordinated the Metros manning the water stop for the Wounded Warrior riders in Amagansett. It wasn’t much fun in the heat, but very rewarding for those that helped. Then for several Metros, off to “Rock the Farm”, the fundraiser that ended the day for the Wounded Warrior Ride. Great music, food, booze and most important, great friends. And, Joe kept going, selling raffle tickets there for the event. Did anyone win a raffle prize there, I didn’t. Then, a week later, the first Metro sunset booze cruise, sold out, and from what I heard, a great night. I wish I was there. A great job done by Ray, Ralph and Fred. I think this may just become another Metro tradition. What’s next? Buffett at Jones Beach, Tuesday August 31 st . We will set up a tailgate to the left of the bathhouse, on the side closer to the venue gates.
