Welcome
to our website! I am Paul Aubert, the Director of the Harley Owners Group
Baton Rouge Louisiana Chapter. I have been a Harley Rider since 1975 and
first affiliated with the Harley Owners Group in 1998. I served as the Safety Officer for the Baton
Rouge Chapter in 2000 and as Chapter Director in 2001. I am also a Vietnam Era Veteran, having
served in Naval Aviation as an aircrew member.
The
Baton Rouge Chapter has over 250 (and growing) dedicated, enthusiastic
members. Our Chapter meetings are held
on the first Saturday of each month at 10:00 a.m. in the H.O.G. meeting room
located upstairs at the Harley- Davidson/Buell of Baton Rouge dealership. We have a number of events for the Baton
Rouge Chapter members to participate in from rides to social events and
picnics, you name it. We encourage all our members to take an active
participation in all our activities.
For
those who are not familiar with H.O.G., it is all about riding your Harley and
having fun. When you become a member of
the Harley Owners Group on the national level, you become entitled to exclusive
access to events on a local, regional and national level. H.O.G. membership also gives you access to a
number of benefits, programs and services.
Here are just a few: Access to participation at H.O.G. events, Roadside
Assistance Program, Safe Rider Skills Program, Theft Reward, Towing
Reimbursement, Mileage Program, H.O.G. merchandise and the list goes on. So if you are not a member, think about
joining. You will definitely enjoy the
experience.
On a
local level, our monthly Chapter rides are on the second Sunday of the
month. Our Ladies of Harley rides are on
the fourth Saturday of the month. We
will also have several bonus rides and an overnight destination ride this
year. For more information on the Ladies
of Harley, please check out the L.O.H. webpage.
Just click on L.O.H. Officer from the homepage and see what Christy
Smith has to say!
We
are active participants in events for the Muscular Dystrophy Association. We
assist with the annual Harley-Davidson motorcycle raffle for MDA and escort the
MDA kids to their annual summer camp. We
also support our military service members on active duty by sending supplies
for our U. S. Troops overseas. We also
have organized rides to the Louisiana War Veterans home to show our thanks to
those who have served our great nation.
Of course one of our favorite events is the annual Christmas Toy Run where our
very own “Santa” takes center stage and fulfills Christmas wishes. This annual event brings our members together
for a motorcycle escort of Santa Claus complete with a “sled” full of toys
bound for those very special boys and girls.
So, please, come and join us for the
fun! For more information on how to join
