If you're headed to the Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival on August 10th, join us at Adventure Chrysler Jeep Dodge from 8am to 10am. Meet your fellow Jeepers and we'll make our own Jeep Parade from Willoughby, Ohio to Butler, Pennsylvania for the Festival. Coffee and donuts will be provided. Please RSVP or post here so we can get an accurate count for the morning. See you then!

1) why now and why here? just signed up for LOST. finding places where jeep peeps and info live and breath. trying to spend more time on the forums, meet fellow jeepers, see whats going on in jeep world. just got the KJ in january, mods done in april and may to wheel it. worked for dealerships since '86, chrysler dealers since '90 (with a short time away in the middle). never wrenched at dealers, wrote service / svc mgr / warranty ... doing more social, advertising, website stuff now.
2) a few of us from the local area near adventure in willoughby are meeting there, thought i'd throw out the invite. haven't had time to look through the forum to see what else is going on. would be happy to join a group effort somewhere close by. i'll have my kj, a few other jeeps with me, and probably towing a JK8 with a Ram too. where do i find that info on local plans?
3) i work at adventure cjd, and adventure is sponsoring bantam this year. helping bantam with my participation, our dealership sponsorship, judging the show & shine, and a bit of social media also.
4) tah dah!

Thats cool
Ted15 with a KK from the Akron area and me from west of Toledo are going down along with Teds Father In Law .
I'll more than likely spend most of my time at JeepinByAls tent helping him
didn't sign up for much due to that
We'll see when everyone can get off work and see what we can do to maybe meet up with ya somewhere along the line

OH and Welcome to LOST
have a pretty good group in Ohio
seems most M&Gs end up here at my place
last weekend went to Bundy Hill in Michigan

gotcha. i'll have something in my tent if we sell the JK8 before next weekend. a few newbie salespeople might make the trek to handle the tent. i signed up for a bunch of stuff, whatever free time i have is going to support the social media effort for the festival. i'll want to see whats going on in the vendor area, will stop by the JBA tent.
i think we're going to southington this weekend, but it might be wellsville. for sure going to southington for 8/31-9/2, we're sponsoring an event there with them and neo4x4.com, jkfreaks, and 4WP. havent been to MI yet, though many members of lake county off road have. sometime we'll do that.
dont know a lot of the jeepers yet, but the community has been great with those i've met so far and really appreciate it. i'm a member of LCOR, know jeepers from neo4x4, HOF and xjor, maybe some others. we all started somewhere i guess.
