WINDROCK SUMMER 2025
We are headed back to one of our favorite venues with 300+ miles of off-road trails on 72,000 acres in the beautiful Tennessee Mountains. The park has plenty of different trails for all types of vehicles and adrenaline levels, plus beautiful mountain scenery around every corner. Learn More If you select Learn More and go to the Park’s website you can register prior to the event. We recommend registering prior to the event because the General Store can get very busy most mornings and just delay our heading to the trails.
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 not have a block of rooms reserved so you need to make your reservation as soon as you can. Cost is $ 134.00 per night per room with 1 King bed or 2 Queen beds. Reservations must be received by our Cut off deadline of 6/26/2025.
Guests can still call the hotel directly at 865-481-2468 and refer to the group name.

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.
