Spotlight Event:
Members Appreciation Trail and Camp out. Camping 6/7-6/8 , (Trail ride only 6/8). Club will cover your trail fee and provide dinner Saturday night. We will split into different groups, Green/Blue , Blue/Black and the big dogs running Reds. Follow the link above for sign up and let us know if you are camping, wheeling and staying for the Club provided Dinner. We have reserved site 146 with a pavilion and the cost will be divided by tent/camper per night and will be way cheaper than getting your own site. There is still room so sign up now. Last, We have an event sponsor! Etenwolf Tools who have generously provided us with 2 Vortex S6 Air Compressors, Digital Tire Gauges and portable Mini Blowers for inflating air beds and duck toys. These and other items will be raffled off to a few lucky members at the event. Thank you to Etenwolf Tools! Please note, This is a members only event, non-members may participate, but will be responsible for their trail fees and meals.
Summer Tire Maintenance Reminder Be sure to replace that old winter air with less dense summer air ! You will see the difference at the pump!
Posts of the Month
See Steven MacKenzie's Post about a CJ-8 being pulled out of a friend's backyard after sitting for 20 years! Would be great to see a Junkyard Digs style revival and update! Steve, please keep us posted on this beauty.
See Sara Shepard's New-to-her, classic Wagoneer Limited. This iconic Jeep was scooped up on FB marketplace and is getting the loving restoration it deserves.

Andy's Corner
Words of wisdom - If you're married keep your Jeep nice enough your better half will ride in it but not nice enough they want to drive it without you. If you cross this line you will find out how fast "your Jeep" becomes "our Jeep"
