I'm in the same boat, Orion is about to head off to OIT for engineering. It's going to be a big change not having him around all the time.

It would be fun to get out there again, I last wheeled Kingsley in 2015. I was driving a sweet F350 crew cab dually with a trailer, it was interesting. https://www.naxja.org/forum/showthread.php?t=1119588 Hopefully I can get the MJ buttoned up and a few miles on it before the next run, wherever...

You dodged a bullet there.

Either way is fine, as long as everyone on the same page. Growing the chapter is good for the club, but a get together with our core group is always more fun.

Personally my favorite part of NW fest is the Wed-Fri before the actual event, so a small members only would be fine if that's what we want to do.

I don't think I will be able to bring the MJ this weekend, but I could probably buzz up to TSF in the Subaru if we want to have a meeting.

Keep in mind that my assumptions are coming from an ex chapter president. At this point we would need to really discuss the future direction of this chapter and work our way to NW fest, currently we are a very small group and have little presence in the local offroad community. As for NW fest...

We definitely aren't what we were, I would be surprised if we could get a half dozen rigs to make the drive, especially with somewhat short notice. NW fest needs to generate enough income to cover its own costs and put something in the treasury, Naches is awesome but may not be able to generate...

I think a Naches trip would be doable, but not a Naches NWfest. There isn't enough time to properly set it up and get enough interest for it to work as the big event. Personally I think Nwfest needs be held somewhere that we can bring in larger numbers.

Got the fuel cell and 255lph fuel pump set up and running. https://youtu.be/E2JXADjjG2g

Renewed last night.

If I get the next round of mods done in time, I might bring the MJ out.

Should be qualifying today around 10am,we should be able to see them on the live feed.

I've been out here about 5 years now, we bought a house about 3 miles east of Shorty's.
