| Member Incentives DFW HOG has
three incentive programs to promote member participation in rides
and other activities.
- Pride Patch
- Chapter Challenge
- Volunteer of the Year
Pride Patch Introduction
 The
Pride Patch program awards a
"Pride Patch" to DFW H.O.G. members for their
participation in Chapter activities. The patch displays a bald eagle
wearing a leather jacket with the word "PRIDE" across
his chest.
Earning a Pride Patch
A Pride Patch is awarded to a member when 15 points have been
earned for attendance at an activity and the minimum number
of required points have been earned in each point category in a
calendar year (See chart below). To earn a point at an
activity, the member must sign the Pride Patch Sign In Sheet at
the event. The member's name must be printed and legible
in order to earn the point. It is the member's
responsibility to locate and sign the sheet at the activity.
