Our History
Renee, our founder, started the chapter in June of 2005 with only six members. "It was then I knew we were on our way to being part of something terrific" she says. The group went on their first big ride just before Hurricane Katrina hit the coast. Things were put on hold for a bit, but during the November meeting that year, the Dixie Angles decided to contribute to the rebuilding of their community by teaming up with the Humane Society of Southern Mississippi to organize a toy drive for the lost and displaced animals. "We accumulated so much stuff we had to take it over in a truck!" says Renee. We feel privileged and are proud to be in association with such wonderful women and hope to continue to foster strong relationships and keep our love of riding alive. Even though we suffered through complete devastation, we came back bigger and better.
