"Uniform requirements are only for Legion Chapter 208 Riders. Everyone else may wear what they would for an afternoon ride. I would hope they would 'dress to impress,' but thats not required. We do not want to exclude anyone wishing to ride in respect of Ray."

The reception is hosted by both Chapter 208 and Post 208.
