If someone wants to organize it sure
I won't be able to make it however. I will see you all Friday morning bright and early.
who is interested in getting together @ the Wild River House Brewery in GP on Thursday evening for an "unofficial" get together, please post up. If enough people are interested, I would be willing to call the Brewery for a reservation. Thanks, hope we can get a gathering. If not, meet everyone at the store.

Awesome Doug! Looking forward to seeing you there!!! 
Hey Doug. Good to hear you're going! It'll be nice to finally meet you face to face instead of over the phone or email. I'll be in my white FJ60 with the Company name on it. We'll be @ O'Brien Thursday as well.

If you still would like to partake PLEASE PM ME ASAP. We will not be able to guarantee a shirt however, but we won't turn you away.
See you on the trail!
PM'ed ya
Hoping to get my stuff together to be able to make it to my 3rd McGrew run
Yep, got it/responded. Hope you can make it. You are good to go on this end
It appears there is no interest in getting together @ the Brewery in GP, so we will see ya all @ O'Briens! Looking forward to seeing all tomorrow and Saturday.
Heading to McGrew in a couple hours! WOOOOT!

Forgot what a loooooonnnnngggg drive it is from Vallejo. 3 more hours to O'Brien.
Whoa, you got a late start! If you are coming up 101 & need to crash just short of OBrien ... like just past Patrick Creek Lodge ... I've got a bed open. Tony called me about 7 PM from OBrien and said he was just going to do the trail tonight alone. I'm leaving the house with my daughter at 7:30 tomorrow for the 20 minute drive
Seriously, if you're tired and get this, call my house as soon as you can ...

Thanks JSC for putting on another awesome event! I do have a favor to ask, if anybody got pics of me wheeling my LX470 I would love to have them. Thanks everybody for making this event what it is. I already miss being out there.

I left camp around 5 pm on Sunday, and made it about 1 miles out of Sourdough before my charging system decided to stop working... We drove out to Cave Junction and ate too much pizza with some great friends (Thanks again Lay-Away!). I headed north to Grants Pass where these great friends loaned be a spare battery. I picked up a part for my Honda from another friends house, gassed up the 4Runner and headed South. I made it to Medford before my battery gave up the ghost... It was dark by then, and the headlights really do a number on a battery... I swapped out batteries, motored over the Siskiyou summit, and rolling into Yreka around 11 pm. I have not been outside since.... Though i am dressed.... 
A huge thank you to all my club members for coming out in force, we had 18 members in attendance!!! Thank you all for your help, and great attitudes!!!
Another huge thank you to all our event sponsors, and raffle prize donors!!! You guys, along with our amazing raffle man Nick Dent, make the event a lot of fun!
A third huge thank you to all the attendees, from the old Guard to the unborn. I am always impressed with the camaraderie that transcends every other part of our lives to bring Toyota enthusiasts together. The people make the event, and without you we'd just be camping...
I really can't say enough about how proud I am of how great this event is!!! If you haven't made it out, you have 362 days to figure out how to make it happen!

This trail ride is absolutely a fantastic event! and JSC has really caused the event to excel in just about every fashion. Kudos to JSC for an event well planned and executed.
I am astounded at how well the pot luck dinner still works. The food was outstanding and I could not believe how much was there.
The addition of a Friday run in is also huge, in that you now have a full day to enjoy camp and the river. I would no other swimming hole compares to one at the old suspension bridge site. (AKA shangri la)
The raffle was lots-o-fun, not because I won, but just plain fun.
I met Chad... and more importantly, I met Brittany. I saw a lot of friends and some I had to ask their name as I had not seen them in some time. The usual cast of characters were there, but also chatted with Mark Hawley of Metal Tech, and my partners in event crime, Ross Woody and Jeff Bomke.
I arrived at the trailhead at 7 PM on Friday, and no one was at the store. I then decided 7.5 hours in my stock 86 mini was not enough and decided to wheel the trail in so I could enjoy all day Saturday at camp. I cannot express how exciting it was to navigate that trail with a stock truck, knowing full well there were a couple of spots I really might not get thru. Arrived at the saddle in 11:45, and at camp just before 1. The JSC folks where still having fun but I was done for the day. Left for home on Sunday at 8 AM, pulled into Auburn around 5:30. Another full day of driving, but well worth the good time we had.
Thanks Jerod and Garrett and Arik and that Umpqua bank guy... and all my friends in JSC for allowing me to attend. I am so proud of the fantastic job you folks have done with this event. We'll see you guys at Rubithon next year!

So glad you and Jeff made it Tony, just doesn't feel quite right when you guys aren't there!
What a blast! ... my friends at JSC rocked. My 15 year old daughter really enjoyed the run and the fun
I'm still smiling because when we lined up at the trailhead on Saturday morning to get the usual USFS scan, the JSC lead, in a white 80 (never did get names) was ejected by the Ranger for a re-wash. Sudenly found myself in the lead with Woooody on my tail ... the two different days in option is working great to break up the load and our group moved really well.
I'm with Tony; JSC stepped up to this event and have made it better in every way!
