The Kneerider Knews Journal (KKJ) is a regularly published news letter containing stories, photo's, monthly gathering calendar and other items of interest. While the intent is to publish on a monthly basis, content will drive the regularity (and if the editor isn't surfing too much!)
The links below reference the KKJ in .pdf format. This format was chosen as a means to bridge the gap between a costly print version and straight html. Additionally, .pdf is platform independent which means create it once and post the document for reading with Adobe Acrobat Reader (free download).
