Norton Colorado Meetings
The club holds monthly (sometimes more often) meetings, which are often in the form of day rides or overnight camping trips, sometimes just a gathering at a local pub. The details of upcoming meetings are published in the newsletter. The most important meeting of the year is the Winter Banquet, held in February. Norton Colorado's calendar year begins and ends with the Winter Banquet. If you have questions about this schedule or want to suggest changes for next year, contact the Ride Coordinator.
Starting in 2010 we have added a number of events for our members in western Colorado, the West Slope Norton Riders. These events are indicated in a lovely salmon color in the list below. If you have questions about these events, contact Gary Bolduc.
Any member of Norton Colorado, regardless of where they live, can earn points towards the coveted President's Award by participating in any of the events listed below.
Beginning on December 8, 2011, we have designated an informal meeting time and place for club members who yearn for the company of other club members more often than our formal event schedule permits. The designated time is every Thursday evening and the designated place for 2012 is Crash 45, 321 E. 45th, Denver. No President's Points are awarded for attendance.
