We hope that everyone is doing well. As we all know COVID-19 has changed our day to day lives. Even though some restrictions have been lifted most borders are still closed and are remaining closed for a while.
The 2020 Convention has been cancelled due to the restrictions in Europe and other locations because of the COVID-19 pandemic. We have had to make this unprecedented decision with a lot of help from the French government, the Red Knights of France 3, and your Region 7 Director. While we recognize that this has never happened before, we are prepared to have a modified Annual Business Meeting. Your International Board will hold a virtual ABM on the morning of August 22nd, 2020. During this meeting we will be able to announce the election results for the Region 8 Director and we will be able to pass on the informational portion of the ABM as usual. We are working to make this meeting available for Members to watch live and we are also looking to have it recorded so we can put it up on the website for everyone to view when they are available. We will not be able to vote on any subjects such as By-Law proposals or the location of the next Convention in line. We must have the general Membership in attendance to make these votes and we cannot do proxy voting (By-Law 2:17). If you have you any questions regarding the registration fees, please contact France 3 or Region 7 Director Pierre Halleux.
Your International Board will continue to meet regularly to keep each other informed on issues arising throughout our Red Knight Family. While we realize that things are different right now, but we know that our Membership is strong and that we will all soon be back on the road together. Some have been luckier than others and have already been back on the road enjoying some of our great riding areas. On a good note we are seeing an increase on Chapter interest and applications. Keep the faith, be strong, we will come out of this stronger than ever. Red Knights Forever!
Loyal to Our Duty
