This isn't an official event (yet at least), just wanting to see who all would be interested in this. We are on the verge of green lighting this.
Right now the tentative plan is to do this on the Saturday of the 1st weekend in June. The truck/4x4 show will be taking place at the Eldorado Outpost, Chris Cagle the owner is behind this 100 percent. We will be putting together prizes for the truck/4x4 show, including a prize for one voter in the "peoples choice award" voting. If possible we are looking at getting an RTI Ramp out there, and having a flex off competition also.
Food will be taken care of between Chris and Terry (which is also behind this 100 percent), so there will be plenty of food/refreshments. Also ALL VENDORS are welcome to this event. There will be plenty of room for vendors to show up and put up a canopy/table to promote their products. We will be needing prizes for the show etc. So any vendors that attend and donate a prize (gift certificate, parts, etc) its GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Other entertainment like porch side music etc is in the works also. But the biggest part of this is why we are doing it. After expenses are paid, all money made from this (from registration fees for the show, etc etc) will be donated to the Friends of Uwharrie Volunteer Program based here on NC4X4. All the money donated to the program goes directly into the trail system for upkeep/maintenance etc.
We will be promoting the workdays/volunteering at our own booth raising awareness during the event also. The whole goal here is to bring the 4x4 community together, have a great time, and help keep our trails open.
