7th Annual Full Size Jeep 'East Coast Invasion'

Group camp is booked! It's on like Donkey Kong!!http://www.nc4x4.com/forums/images/smilies/RockOn.gif

7th Annual ECI - June 11th-14th 2009
Uwharrie National Forest - Troy, NC
Hosted by Carolina Full Size Jeep Club
Like previous years that the CFSJC has hosted the event, camping is FREE (Thurs. - Fri. - Sat.)! We return to the Badin Lake Group Camp for '09.
What do I need to bring?: Your FSJ, some camping gear or camper, and $5 a day for trail passes. A Season Pass is $30. These are National Forest Service Fees, and only required if your taking a vehicle on the trails. Most of us just buy them at "The Outpost", a gas station near the entrance to URE. If your FSJ aint runnin', bring what you can.
*Primitive (trail or roadside, no convenient facilities) camping is allowed in the forest for free as well. Many folks camp trailside throughout the year.
How difficult are the trails?: The trails at URE are mild to tough, nothing too wild, but there is a challenge for all rigs and driver skill. We take stock FSJs over most of the trails out there. Some of the harder trails have by-passes.

THERE IS A NO ALCOHOL POLICY IN THE NATIONAL FOREST, INCLUDING THE CAMPGROUND. This will be strictly enforced. If you are seen with alcohol you will be asked to put it away or leave the campground.
NO EXCEPTIONS!
Last year there were some issues with drinking that will not be tolerated again.
Drinking and driving on the trails is the same as drinking and driving on NC roads. The new LEO is a strict rule follower with a 0 tolerance policy. He WILL arrest you if found drinking and driving anywhere in the forest. He has the right to search vehicles, coolers and campsites. Please keep in mind that as an attendee you represent a sport that is already in danger, and the FSJ community.
It's a small sacrifice for a great weekend of wheeling and comraderie.


There will be a raffle again this year. We'll have more info on that as the date draws closer.
Previous years we have had donations from the likes of...
TT's Fabworks
BJ's Off-Road
Jake's FSJ Junkyard
Warn
B.F. Goodrich
4Wheel Parts (Raliegh)
...just to name a few

Hmmm...if we get a trailer to haul the waggy might be a neat event--would love to see all those full sizes.

Bump, for reminder if anyone is heading down, or if anyone missed the initial post who's new to the area (with a real - big Jeep).
Later, T.J.

Might make an appearance, depends on when I get cut out to leave for Sgt's Course and how close it is to Camp Lejeune. I report in the 16th?(no orders yet) Still debating on driving the GW or not. Thanks for the bump, hadn't seen this thread.

Well worth it just went up last month. My buddy wheeled his FSJ with No problems other than we had to run into town and change out his radiator. Pretty fun trails.
