This is an OPEN run (i.e., both existing members and prospective members/nonmembers are eligible to attend) that is designed as a benefit to support RCPFA. Money raised will go towards the onsite porta potty bill, trail maintenance tools, member’s area tools/spruce up and general club needs. Please support this club benefit by making a donation even if you cannot attend.

DATE & TIME

July 15 – 17, 2011

Start time is 9:00 AM each morning. Please plan to arrive by 8:30 AM in order to finish the registration process and get into your trail groups by the start time.

Participants who plan to camp on-site are welcome to arrive to setup camp anytime after 4pm July 15 2011

EVENT LOCATION

You'll need to go past the "End of State Maintenance" sign, over the cattle guard, through the gate -- PLEASE KEEP CLOSED -- and to the top of the hill to find the parking/camping/registration areas.

Please be advised that Crozet is privately owned land which RCPFA maintains. It is NOT open to the public at any other time unless arranged via the RCPFA Board of Directors (BOD). All persons attending must either drive their rig or have a seat in another rig to ride in. NO SPECTATORS ALLOWED at wheeling events. Please take all of your trash and/or broken parts with you. Upon your departure, the area should be left in as good a condition as when you arrived.
