HDMC's 120th Anniversary - July 13-16, 2023
in Milwaukee, WI
|
A group from our Chapter went to the 115th Anniversary Celebration in 2018 and are still talking about the great times, grand adventures, and good memories we made!!
We Hope to do the Same next year!!
The MoCo & Milwaukee have been promoting the event as well, preparing for an unforgettable weekend.
Quite a few hotels have opened up their reservations for July 13-16, 2023, and many have booked up already. There's also a few that are taking advantage of the event to increase their pricing. For instance, Countryside Inn & Suites in Germantown, WI (just north of the event) normally charges $150-$170 per night... however when we put in the dates of the 120th Anniversary the price jumps to $340 per night.
What do you want to do?
H-D will celebrate its 120th anniversary in 2023 with the launch of Harley-Davidson Homecoming, an annual four-day festival filled with music, food and moto-culture -not to be missed!!
If you'd like to go to this once-in-a-lifetime event, let us know what our next step should be by answering this question:
|
|
|
Hotels are booking fast for the 120th & prices are all over the map. Would you rather:
|
|
Each get their own accommodations and make a plan to ride out together.
|
|
|
|
|
Look into renting a house on Air B&B or VRBO so we can all stay together.
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry, I don't plan on going
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The main reason our HOG Chapter exists is so that we like-minded individuals who are passionate about motorcycling adventure and Harley-Davidson can get together and have fun!!
To that end, we're always on the look out for new & interesting places to go and things to do!! What are your ideas? What would you like to do? Where do you want to go??
Please take a moment to jot them down in an email, text or on the WhatsApp to Jodi Nicholson (our Activities Officer): jnic3241@yahoo.com
