Good news all.
The equipment that SFWDA has donated to the Friends of Uwharrie is enroute either this week or at the latest next week. SFWDA is paying to actually get the pieces of equipment here. Yes that is correct. Not just one item but right now we are looking at 2 items and maybe a total of 4 items if we can talk them into it.
The 2 pieces that have been confirmed are the Backhoe, and a 5 ton old school Military dump truck. The other 2 items we are talking to them about are 2 trailers to be able to haul things on the trails behind Cruisers / or trucks / or whatever you drive that is capable of towing .
This stuff is being donated to Friends of Uwharrie to keep up in Uwharrie. The items of equipment do drive right now but we know there are some issues with a few things . With that i would ask your help to donate to Friends of Uwharrie to get these items in a operable on the trails condition.
These items will help our club be able to maintain our trail that we have signed up for. You will not even have to put fuel in them to be able to use them. Of course the operators will have to be qualified on the item to use it.
Right now as it stands we do not need people to donate time to work on these, but we would like people to donate a few dollars to be able to get the items we need.
The place where you can make a donation is http://friendsofuwharrie.org/index.html
In closing this long post out i would encourage you to take a little time out of your day to go over to the SFWDA http://sfwda.org/ and to think about joining them either as an individual or our club joining them, cause without their help / kindness we would not be able to get these items of equipment. And take some time to also thank Scott Fields, as because of him they are being donated to Uwharrie. He has been a charter member of SFWDA for a "few" years now.
Pictures of the equipment will be posted here soon so you can get a better idea of what we are receiving.
I warned you all about me going buck wild on this Uwharrie stuff up there and you would be asked for a few things if i got voted in.
So, who will be the first to step up to the plate ? And can we maybe talk the club into helping ?
