JJJ Memorial Mud Bog in Manito, IL

[JohnnyU]

Well, we're getting ready to do it again. Levi is going to put on his annual JJJ Memorial Mud Bog in Manito, IL on the weekend of July 11th. It is similar to the rest of our events held out there. We have open FREE camping on Friday and Saturday nights, and trucks run all day Saturday. Run what you brung, and hope you brung enough!!

I will update here with more information within the next two weeks, but feel free to visit www.earthresin4x4.com (http://www.earthresin4x4.com/) for more information. Also, you are more than welcome to check out pictures from a few of our previous events on our site as well.

As always, I encourage that people come out and camp with us. It definitely makes a great weekend out of it!

If there are any questions, feel free to ask!

I'm locked and loaded, ready to leave in the morning. :icon_cheers:

Hey Brad, you missed a pretty good run this weekend. In fact, as you already know, this is THE offroading spot in Central Illinois.

It seems like things are starting to catch on around here. People are starting to see what we are about, they seem to like it, and they're coming back and bringing more people. We had 76 or 78 trucks at final count Saturday evening, and I'm not sure what the count on people/spectators was.

I let Abbey do a lot of driving and she loved it. That's what I was mainly concerned with, making sure that she enjoyed herself and still has an interest in it. Now I have to find a 2-door XJ to build for her. :D

I only took a few pictures, here are the highlights:

Looks awesome John, I hope I can make it to the next one. It will have to depend on harvest again like last year.

It was definitely a great time. I had a blast anyways. I didn't take any pics, just figured Katie would take care of that as she always does. Its just killin me to have to wait for her to upload them haha.

There are like 1000 pictures on the CD. Here are a few of the ones that Josh posted to his page. I'll post a link to the gallery when one of us gets them uploaded to photobucket.
