The 2001 Irish Getaway was a tremendous success! We had an estimated attendance of 500-550 of the finest people anywhere. The weather cooperated beautifully. The rain stopped Thursday morning, and the river, although rising steadily, never posed us any problems at all. We gave away 323 door-prizes, and one lucky attendee walked away with $483.00 in cash. Also, the good people of Chapter S from Winder, GA, the former Motorsickle Capital of the World, took home the Georgia Traveler Plaque. We hope everyone who attended the 2001 Irish Getaway had as much fun as we had putting it on for you!
All of us in the Shamrock Road Riders want to express our sincere appreciation to all the great members of GA-Q and GA-V. These folks worked very hard to help make the Irish Getaway possible. We couldn't do it without them!
We also want to thank the Board and membership of the Laurens County Sportsman's Club for allowing us to use their beautiful location.

Joe pays yours truly to have his picture made with me, Jeff Puckett. Joe is the abnormally tall one on the right! (My story, Joe, I'll tell it like I want it!) |
