So, who is attending this year? Would love to meet up with some of the guys from the forums while I am there. I am attending by myself, so I am free to talk "Jeep" 'til my heart is content!

You won't be disappointed. We went in 2011. We attended the MVPA
convention and then went to Butler from there. What a great show. I highly recommend this show.

We may try to make it again in 2017.

Take some pictures.

Yeah, it sounds like a good time - plus it is the jeep's 75th anniversary. I figured this would be the year to go. I plan on being there Friday around lunch and leave Sunday around lunch. My wife's brother lives near Pittsburgh, so I plan on spending one evening with them since I will be pretty close to them.

My brother lives near Pittsburgh, so we visited family at night and played Jeeps during the day. Didn't want to drive 2 vehicles though, so we left my son's Jeep at home. Next time, I'd love to take a jeep for trail riding, but transporting the Jeep is a lot of logistics to figure out.

It was an absolute blast!

Everybody is asking if I am taking my jeep. There's no way I am going to trailer it 525 miles for a couple of trail rides, a parade and a show. I plan on being on the move most of the weekend so that I can see most of the show.

As much fun as this was, it would have been so much better if we had the Jeep, however, we were in the same boat. Towing or driving the Jeep 805 miles wasn't feasible. Still, one great adventure. We've got to get there again.

Have a great time and report back with some pictures.

I'll be there Friday and Saturday with my A1, I was also chosen to represent 1954 in the parade! Stop by and say hi.
