Hello All,
Sorry for the delay in this post. There is a jeep show on Saturday September 7th in Abingdon, IL. (see details below) This event was discussed a little at the July 13th meeting and is found to be in conflict with our regularly scheduled meeting for September. While there was some interest in participating in the jeep show at that meeting. I feel it necessary to get more feedback because it involves either moving the location of our meeting 1 hour west of the Peoria area or canceling the meeting entirely.
I personally feel that we can do both. The jeep show is a good cause and gives us an opportunity to hang out with other jeepers/drool over other rigs. Plus we can still hold our meeting at the event at 6 pm.
Please post up your thoughts on this matter!
Larry

Re: Jeep Show September 7th Or meeting or Both?
This is where it gets interesting for me; I am for holding the meeting at the event. Think. convoy over would be cool....but, that is my granddaughter's first birthday and the party planning has to wait until after my son's 30th party on Aug 3rd. So as much as I want us to be a part of this, I may not be able to attend.
How's that for confusing?!?!
