OK guys, I’m sending out this blurb as in past years to anyone for whom I have an email address and think might be interested in joining us for the 2007 pig run. This is the sixth year for the “event”, such as it is. This year is as informal as ever but surely will be as enjoyable as any of the past events. Seeing a lineup of FJ55’s in the heart of the country’s rust belt is an inspiring sight for most land cruiser enthusiasts. We’re hoping to have more than a dozen pigs in attendance this year, so do your part and get your oinker to Rausch Creek next month!!!!
We’ll be running Rausch Creek Friday August 3 and Saturday August 4. I for one am probably camping at Camp-A-While, right off exit 112 of interstate 81. Rausch Creek is off exit 107 of I-81. We’ll be meeting in the staging area at Rausch Creek around 7:30AM on Thursday, and getting the pigs together for a group shot by about 8AM if all goes well. Anyone who knows me will appreciate that I intend to have my group ready to head out onto the trails by about 8:30AM. Saturday will just be everyone meeting in the staging area at 8Am to get groups together for the day’s trail ride.
Chris Bashore is possibly gonna have some pig run T shirts available- no promises here- but I must say he did a helluva job on the last bunch he did in 2005. let’s all keep our fingers crossed on this one!!!!
Feel free to forward this message to any of the club forums- Gotham City, my own Appalachian Land Cruiser guys, and any of the clubs from Virginia or wherever, whose members might be able to attend. Any four wheel drive Toyota is welcome to attend and participate, and as usual we’ll form groups for trucks with similar capabilities and expectations. By this time a lot of us are getting quite familiar with Rausch Creek and there is sure to be enough group leaders as required. The pig run is a fun event- no pressures, just a few days on the trail with other folks who enjoy their Toyotas and appreciate the rarity of the iron pig. Send any comments or questions to me directly or else to Jeff Dozier. The Appalachian Group is running this year’s event and Jeff is the president of the group.
I look forward to hearing from anyone planning to attend- let’s make this a fun weekend next month!!!!!! Yours in the interest of the iron pig……………..Gary S
