The group also sponsors and participates in many veteran-related motorcycle charity events each year, donating to various veteran causes. This is the ninth annual motorcycle ride through Post 349.

Michael “Cooky Man” Cook, spokesperson coordinator for law enforcement for parades and CVMA member, has been with the group for the last five years and takes his job “very seriously.”
