WINDROCK 2020!!!! Part II

We are headed back this year to one of our favorite venues with 300+ miles of off-road trails on 72,000 acres in the beautiful Tennessee Mountains for June.  The park has plenty of different trails for all types of vehicles and adrenaline levels, plus beautiful mountain scenery around every corner. Learn More

This event is all about the trails, off-roading, and Camaraderie.  We will be kicking up mud and crawling over rocks.

The event hotel will be the Double Tree in Oak Ridge located at 215 S. Illinois Ave.  We do have a block of rooms set aside for the event and you need to give the Code HR2 so you need to make your reservation as soon as you can.  Call the hotel at 1-865-481-2468 to make your reservation.

Club members are always allowed to bring guests that are not club members as passengers in their Hummer. For this event, club members will also be allowed to sponsor one guest that is not a club member that can drive a Hummer or non-Hummer 4x4 vehicle.  This driver and vehicle must remain in the same group as the sponsoring club member who will be responsible for their conduct.  This guest and vehicle must follow the same rules as club members.  Fee's for the sponsored guest and vehicle are the same as club members and can be paid at registration on Thursday evening at the hotel.  Please note, that members can sponsor only one extra driver and vehicle.

Important Notes:

• Drivers meeting each morning in the rear parking lot of the hotel. 
• All trucks should be fueled and prepared to leave for the trails without having to make any extra stops.
• Be sure to pack lunch and bring plenty of water to stay hydrated. Some extra snacks and a lawn chair for sitting when we lunch on the trail would be a plus.
• A CB for communication is required – and makes the event more fun and easier.  Inform your trail leader if you do not have CB communication.
• Be certain that your truck is well maintained and that it is in good operational condition. Bring likely spare parts and tools if you have them.
• Be prepared for long trail days (food, water, fuel, clothing), you never know what might happen.

Mechanical Support is provided at all major Club events

At Major events, the event coordinator and other club members will support any needed repairs to the best of their ability so everyone can fully participate and get home afterwards. Your truck must be in excellent mechanical condition due to the nature of these events. We suggest you carry basic hand tools and keep spare parts on-hand and/or parts that wear when off-roading (idler, pitman, tie-rods, ball-joints). Contact the event coordinator if you have questions about mechanical support and/or what to bring.
