We will participate in the procession from the Chapel to DFW National Cemetery.  An escort company will be providing traffic control.  At this time, the exact time of departure from the funeral home has not been determined so please remain flexible and ready to go at any time.

 

On arrival at the cemetery big flag bikes will remain with the procession, the rest of the bikes will proceed to the shelter staging area, shelter is unknown at this time.  Those not participating in the escort please plan to arrive no later than 1:00 PM.  We will use the flags in storage at the shelter.

Please be aware of the possibility of blocked entrances to the cemetery.  An entrance that we believe will always be open is the one near the administration building on Mountain Creek Parkway about half way up the hill, approaching Spur 408 and Loop 12.  The Map in this document shows that entrance and not the main entrance we are used to - just in case. 

Note:  Please remember that our parking area is now on the main road between shelters A and B.  Funerals are being staged at the administration building and in the area by the lake.  We will park facing up the hill toward shelter A with 2 bikes side by side as close to the curb and each other as possible so that traffic can get by.  This arrangement keeps the motorcycle and voice noise to a minimum around the shelters during the services and appears to meet the needs20of the cemetery.  We will assemble in this area and not around the shelters until it is time to move to the shelter to set up for the service.  Exceptions to this parking arrangement are, as always, made for those who have trouble walking to the area.


 


 

Weather:  Forecast for Tuesday. 77 degrees with 40% chance of T-Showers.   

 

The flag/water truck will be there.

 

Safety First:  With the possibility of rain in the forecast please remember to bring rain gear and to ride accordingly.  

Iron horses if you can, cages are always welcome and appreciated. 

 

Please remember that our mission is to stand tall, silent, and with honor and respect for this veteran and his family.


 


 

Respectfully Submitted,
