| GREETING LETTER FOR PERSPECTIVE FIRE CASTLES The FLAMING KNIGHTS MOTORCYCLE CLUB was founded on April 27, 1968 in New Haven, Ct. Since that beginning the FLAMING KNIGHTS MOTORCYCLE CLUB has grown into an International Association of Fire Castles. We pride ourselves on being a Multi-Racial, Multi-Motorcycle and Multi-Gender motorcycle club. The founding fathers were a mix group and that belief will travel with us forever. FLAMING KNIGHTS MOTORCYCLE CLUB MISSION STATEMENT 2009 OUR PURPOSE is and has always been to create and promote through knighthood the values of Family-hood, Loyalty, Trueness and Love; which we extend to our families and communities. Through knighthood we demonstrate respect for the laws of our Country, State, City and Community. OUR GOAL Is to become the largest and most dominant “TRAVELING MOTORCYCLE CLUB” in the world. OUR MISSION 1. Is to bring together people who have a dedication and a passion for riding motorcycles. 2. People who are determined to find roads that we have never traveled; only heard of. 3. People who have a devotion to find places that we have only head about. 4. People who embrace the infectious disorder called “WANDERING LUST” “WHERE EVER THERE’S A PLACE TO GO THE FLAMING KNIGHTS ARE SURE TO SHOW” 5. To advocate KNIGHTHOOD and KNIGHT-ERRANT values 6. To bring together our members through Social and Recreational endeavors; that helps strengthen the bond between us and to become a family that rides as one. At our NATIONAL FIRE TABLE MEETING which is held once a year we want FLAMING KNIGHTS who can spark out imagination, intrigue our minds, dance with our spirits and inspire our desires for adventures with road stories. In all FIRE CASTLES (CLUB HOUSES) above the front door will be read: “HERE BE RIDERS OF MOTORCYCLES; WHO ARE SEEKERS OF NEW ROADS, NEW PLACES & NEW ADVENTURES” “We are BOND BY HONOR !!!!” “We are SECOND TO NONE !!!” “We were BORN TO WANDER !!” “WE RESPECT ALL ... WE FEAR NONE !” FLAMING KNIGHTS FOREVER FOREVER FLAMING KNIGHTS We are extending you with this invitation as a perspective FIRE CASTLE.
