Registration is up!

Upstate Cruisers is running the event.
Yes is it time to start planning for this event. Actually we started before the last one was done. So mark you calendars now. Go ahead and tell the boss you need these dates off.
Format will be similar to the way it has been in the past.
We have reserved Crawford's just for us. Crawford's Campground
Going to be a big turnout this year. Expecting over 200 vehicles and 300 people.
We plan on making it the single biggest Toyota 4x4 event on the east coast. And with the help of 160 Upstate Cruisers members and the other local clubs on the east coast we should have no problem in pulling this off.
Goal: To help raise money for the "Rescue Tellico Fund" as well as provide a fun, safe event for all forms of Toyota 4x4 vehicle owners and their family. That's right, we have moved the event back a month to allow for school to be out and the weather to be a little better. We want this to be a vacation for you and to be as comfortable and economical as we possibly can make it.
We have a lot of new things this year that I think will help draw people in.
More advertising.
A huge sponsor list to make the raffle this year something like no other (even in this economy).
A restructuring of the registration. Everyone wanted the a la carte.
Changing the date so it can become more of a family event. Next year it will not be same time as this year. Most likely be early June. We did it in late June to accommodate some of the STLCA members who are doing some consulting for us during the event.
A lot of new events for the week along with some of the usual favorites. Rock crawling comp (blind, classes 1,2, &3, kids crawling (we have something special planned)) tug-o-war (that's with vehicles not people) Movie night (have yet to decide but we will have a big screen TV to show either wheeling stuff or movies for the kids), sponsors exposition, rafting, drinks night (Metal Tech usually steps up in a big way and this is a night where we cater to you), BBQ one night and huge raffle and auction. We will also work on making sure the kids stay occupied. We have yet to finalize this but we are going to try to have a camp for them during a couple days so the parents can get out and have a little trail me time. Probably have a yard sale event so you can bring your crap and everyone can get some good deals.
We are planning on having better Wi-Fi and it be available in more places. Also plan on having the event live on MUD or at least some of it.
We also have planned to have some tech classes. Setting up third members, lockers, t-cases, recovery, come to mind.
We have a motto in Upstate Cruisers. Something for everyone.
