We appreciate everyone's support all year long and want to give back for all your hard work honoring our Veterans and supporting their families! We know there are other events happening this day and we're not in competition with anyone. We don't expect everyone to stay the whole time, but please DO consider stopping by to say hello, have a sip and then if you wish, continue on with all the other festivities being offered this day!
You can see the entrance to the shelter under that little triangle on the map. Tell the gate attendant you are going to the PGR/Patriot Guard Riders at the Island Pavilion and they should let you in free. If you're coming before 1000, contact Holler for a gate code so you don't have to wait at the gate. Stay left after the "Swim Beach" and you'll see the pavilion on the right just before the Marina as you are coming down the hill. Please close the gate when you come in.
DO invite others regardless their affiliation. Remember, attend one mission and you ARE a member, whether you don MC Colors or are Independents!
Cages are always welcome!
Bring your swimsuits & boats!
We need you to bring your famous side dishes! Make enough for you and maybe two other people. Pot-Luck Coordination is being done by Holly Melendez, so let her know here or via email or phone what you want to bring so we can update the list below on both the website and the Facebook Event.

Extra Pavilion Information: Stillhouse Marina is located a short walk across from our pavilion and a boat ramp is located next to the Marina. The restrooms are a short walk between the pavilion and the marina. The pavilion has water, electricity for small appliances, and a barbecue pit. If you want to stay past the PGR picnic to enjoy the lake, let Holler know. Make sure to bring food and drinks for the day, as the lunch food will go home with their chefs.
Let's make this year's picnic the best ever!
We don’t care what you ride or if you ride, what your political views are, or whether you’re a hawk or a dove. It is not a requirement that you be a veteran. It doesn’t matter where you’re from or what your income is; you don’t even have to ride. The only prerequisite is Respect.
