Virginia Tech Memorial Trail Ride at Big Dogs Offroad

[mtntoys]

The First Annual Virginia Tech Memorial Trail Ride will be held on July 26th and 27th, 2008 and will be hosted by the Sinking Creek 4-Wheel Drive Association (SC4WDA).

Big Dogs Offroad, located in Winchester, Virginia, has graciously offered to house this year’s event. Registration for the VTMTR is $65 per rig. This registration includes one ticket for a raffle. A portion of this fee is a donation to the following benefactors: Virginia Tech Rescue Squad; Blacksburg Volunteer Rescue Squad; Blacksburg Volunteer Fire Department. These rescue organizations were first responders to the tragedy that occurred on April 16, 2007 at the Virginia Tech campus. All profits from this event, in addition to a portion of the registration fee, will be donated to the aforementioned benefactors. Neither SC4WDA nor Big Dogs will make any profit from this event.

The following events will be held throughout the course of the weekend; Raffle, Mud Bog, Show and Shine. The vendor list for the raffle will be updated via Sinking Creek’s public VTMTR Forum.

SC4WDA is a technically oriented off-highway driving club, located in Blacksburg, Virginia, which prides itself in community involvement. Our member base includes, but is not limited to, students of Virginia Tech and surrounding colleges and schools, and non-students. All club members have close ties to not only the Virginia Tech community, but also the Blacksburg and 4-Wheel drive communities.

Great trails at Gore! Does the $65 include camping?

 

[mtntoys]

Agreed, the trails at Big Dogs are awesome. The park is only open for a few select weekends out of the year. This is another opportunity to enjoy them for a great cause.

The Cove Camp ground handles the camping and land use fees. From Big Dogs sight…
“there is a $25.00 per person, land use/camping fee for this event. Kids less than three feet tall, independent of age, are $10 per weekend. Includes trail access, campsite, hot showers, rifle range, hiking, fishing, use of grounds. Paid on site. Hotel Accommodation information can be found HERE[.”

The initial post mentions a mud bog and show and shine but don't think there aren't plenty of tight and rocky trails. You can have as much or as little carnage as you like at Gore.

I am glad to see this club is still active ,SC4WDA. I was one of the founding members back in 1996? or 97? If I recall correctly, we had two FJ 40's, our FJ 60, a Tacoma, Defender 90 and a few others for the first meeting. We hope to make it up for this great event!

If I can get my rig going I'll try and make it up. I haven't wheeled in ages, and I need to go somewhere other than GWNF.
