Well, we have survived the weekend and I consider it a great success! Even through the downpour and the power going out everyone seemed to be pleased. Thank you to everyone who came. I want to thank The Eldorado Outpost for talking with me, handing out flyers, and bringing out the trough/hose/pans for the Gem Find. Thank you to Jims Gems and Gold of Aberdeen for donating bags for the Gem Find – the kids, but mostly the adults, enjoyed panning. Thank you to Kirk, James, Mick, Jessica, Yvette, Kim, Mike, Lorenzo and Jamie for helping me set up and take down. Thank you to the volunteers – Sandy (photography and donations), JB (Card drawing and donations and member of CORE), Todd (trail gunner and member of Carolina Jeepsters), Jason (ticket seller and member of Carolina Ridge Runners), and Erika (Card drawing and member of Vertical Excursions). I would also like to thank our other donors – Ergodyne (tool bags, gloves, shirts), Herculiner (free Bed Liner kit), and Warn (recovery strap, winch gloves).

Jimmy Hank was the best hand winner (I will also note that he gave some back to the cause – Thank you Jimmy). Mike was the worst hand. The fireworks were great for the kids, entertaining and not loud (although the adults wanted more). Everyone were winners with making new friends and having a great time. See everyone on the trails and thank you again from High Country Help Center!
 
I've got a few pics of my cell phone. Can't find the cable to my camera yet.
I'm going to add to this as I get them up and then put some YouTube video links up soon.

I had a great time everyone!! Winning was nice too. Haha. My daughter will be talking about it for a long time! Great event, even better cause, can't wait for next year. Hopefully I'm back from the big sandbox in time for it. Thanks again! :driver:


I'll post up a link to the pics when I get them loaded.
 
I'll put highlights on the website and post it once it' all together. Thanks for posting what you've got so far. The ??? picture is Todd and Cara (along with Porscha).
 
As soon as I get time I'll post the pics I have. We had a great time and met some really good people.
 
If you type in 2nd Annual 4x4 Poker Run, you'll see all the video I had taken. I'm still waiting on pics from Sandy too so as soon as I get hers and yours, maybe then the website will be ready.
 
I noticed we didn't get you til you had already made it up :(
 
Awesome! I totally forgot about pics on Dutch John so I'm glad you got those. It's funny to hear men say, "Nice, nice, pretty" and they're talking about rolling over rocks! LOL.
 
Good job Zo! I didn't even know you shot all of that. I'll get my pics up this weekend. I've been busy getting re-acclimated to work after 2 months off.
