Win a Classic!
Pres. Paul Cotton reports that the winner of this year's raffle motorcycle is Skip Waelty, N. Reading, Massachusetts, ticket #3338. He purchased the ticket from Immediate Past Pres. Warren Mitchell around 12:30p the day of the drawing. He is still deciding whether to take the Harley or the cash.
