The Jamboreeis located in the Eldorado community of Montgomery County, across the street from the Eldorado Outpost on NC Highway 109, 10 miles North of Troy.


This event is promoted by UORTC - Uwharrie Off-Road Training Center, Tread Lightly!, Hendrick Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Concord, JAARS-Partners in Bible Translation, and Southern Four Wheel Drive Association.

Superwinch will be at the Jamboree! They have donated a beautiful Tiger Shark winch! This winch will be used to help us secure volunteers for maintaining the US Forest Service OHV trails at Uwharrie. Come by the USFS booth for a chance to win this awesomewinch!

BFGoodrich Off-Road Tire Test will allow you to experience the effectiveness of BFG tires on the UORTC-Obstacle Course.


Grand Overland 4WD Scavenger Hunt Guided Trail Rides are approximately 2 hour trail rides ona 200 acre farm which also serves as 4 x 4 training grounds for civilians and military groups. This is designed for friends and families who want a 4WD experience that includes you driving your vehicle on 4WD trails while your passengers look for ‘finds’ that have been placed in site of the trail. An energetic guide will keep you entertained with local folklore, stories, and a stop along the Uwharrie River. $30.00 per vehicle. UORTC uses this trail system for 4WD-101 and 202 classes.

The helicopter rides are worth the trip to URE for that weekend. It you are pretty familiar with the trail system and the terrain, seeing it from the air is really intriguing. The fall foliage is also a plus ;)
