Here is an insight into what the CVMA® MO 4-11 mission of Vets Helping Vets is about. My CVMA® MO 4-11 Sister, Christina “Catch 22” Schoener, messaged me not too long ago and said, "You wanna do this? If so, let’s goooo!" She also planned a route that included a few really cool attractions along the way, like the mini Statue of Liberty, the needle in the haystack, and the Keeper of the Plains. This trip was exactly what I needed this weekend—a reset and a stress-relieving ride. The trip culminated with our participation in the Bikers For B***s poker run, as this cause is near and dear to our hearts. This is the spirit of the CVMA® Vets Helping Vets mission. Military siblings stepping up, identifying when one of us is down, and helping to pick us back up. It doesn’t always take a weekend trip, but sometimes a simple call or text can have your buddy’s six.

🏍️ 380+ MILES IN THE HEAT FOR A GREAT CAUSE! 🏍️

Yesterday, members of CVMA® MO 4-11 geared up and rode a total of about 380 miles in the summer heat! It was hot, but the scenic views along the way made it a beautiful day for a ride with a purpose.

Our mission? Delivering heavily loaded bags of soda can tabs (aka “pop tops”) to two incredible locations: the Ronald McDonald House in Springfield, MO and the Ronald McDonald House in Columbia, MO! 📍📍

How do these tiny pop tops help?The Ronald McDonald House charities collect these aluminum tabs and recycle them in large quantities. The recycling centers pay local chapters for the aluminum, and 100% of those funds go directly toward helping the houses take care of families. It is amazing how much a little piece of metal can do!

Supporting our Military Families:The Ronald McDonald House does vital work by giving families a "home away from home" near hospitals while their children receive medical treatment. This incredible resource actively aides military families during some of their toughest times. In fact, this cause hits very close to home for us—some of our very own CVMA® members have used and relied on the comfort of the Ronald McDonald House in the past.

We are honored to ride, support, and give back to an organization that has done so much for our community and our military brothers and sisters!

Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® (CVMA) MO 4-11 is thrilled to share a special update from our time at the inaugural St. Robert Neon Fest! As part of CVMA® MO 4-11’s participation in this awesome community event, we have officially agreed to donate a portion of the funds raised from our Neon Fest Bike Show entrance proceeds directly to Kids' Harbor, Inc. in St. Robert, MO.

Kids’ Harbor does incredible work in our community by providing essential resources, safety and healing services to children and families; including many Active Duty and Veteran family members right here in the Pulaski County area. Supporting them is a perfect extension of our core mission, "Vets Helping Vets."

By lifting up military and veteran families during difficult times, we ensure our Brothers and Sisters in Arms know their loved ones are cared for, strengthening the bond of service that unites us all. Thank you to everyone who entered the Bike Show and helped make this donation possible!

Another great visit to the Life Care Center of Waynesville! Members of CVMA® MO 4-11 had a blast playing games and cutting up with the residents. We had a wonderful "Forgotten Vets" visit.

For those who don't know, this CVMA® MO 4-11 program connects Chapter members with local military Veteran seniors living in care facilities. It ensures they can bond with fellow Veterans, get put in contact with necessary resources (if needed), and receive essential items like personal hygiene products, blankets, clothing and fun activities like the games you see here. 🇺🇸🏍️

Members of Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® (CVMA) MO 4-11 came out tonight for a great cause! Our Chapter took part in the spaghetti dinner benefit at VFW Post 3176 Ozark Memorial in St. Robert, MO to support Beth Therkelsen.

Beth is the daughter of a Veteran and the head cook at VFW Post 3176. She spends her time taking care of our local veterans by feeding all of us. Now, it is our turn to take care of her. Beth's husband is currently recovering from a major surgery with a very lengthy recovery period ahead.

CVMA® MO 4-11 joined many others within our local community to show up for Beth and her family. In addition to packing the house, our Chapter made a donation to help support Beth and her family during this difficult time.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support!

The Combat Veterans Motorcycle Association® (CVMA) MO 4-11 recently had the honor of hosting the 2nd annual Wrangler Poker Run to raise proceeds for the Power Of Hope Equestrian Center in Steelville, MO. The event directly benefits their Wrangler Program, a specialized equine-assisted therapy initiative for active military, veterans, and first responders. By using structured horse-human interactions, this program helps heroes process trauma, reduce PTSD and anxiety, build emotional trust, and find a supportive community.
Special thank you to Nikki Ashley and Shannon Burchett for photos of the day’s events. ❤️🖤💛
