2026 Bantam Jeep Heritage Festival trail cleanup day

[elwood blues]

In preparation for this year's Bantam Jeep Fest I volunteered to help with trail clean up this year. Had a blast with my group, lots of Jeeps, I had the only CJ . I followed on guy with a 2024 with the factory 35" wheel package and went everywhere he went, he was a little jealous, hahaha.

If anyone else will be at Bantam this year, I'll be at the Kildoo Quary Friday & Saturday and at the main event on Sunday.

I couldn't leave it dirty, I think there was 20lbs of mud stuck too it.

I want to. Dunno if I'll make it though. Post a link to the event

[Jeep Soup]

Thank You for volunteering.
I was out to the Bantam Jeep Fest in 2017.
Had a HOOT !
Plenty of Vendors, Trail/Test Track,.....etc

Back story;
Went with my Buddy and his Jeep, with me in the Timber Cruiser.
The Local National Guard was parking vehicles.
A Very Attractive Woman Private was first and had me wait for the next line of vehicles.
She SEES that I have a Whole Bunch of Beads hanging from my mirror and sun visor.

Jokingly she asks; "Do I have to remove any of my Uniform to GET SOME Of Those!!??"
NOW this is a "Jeep Soup" set up!
I also have a Bag of Hawaiian Lai's between the seats,....
TAG LINE.....OH, Beads.....
Do YOU Want To Get Lai'd!!??
As I pulled out some. She Loudly Laughed and Said "Yes I Want to Get Lai'd" just loud enough the Sargent at the Next Jeep heard and came Marching Over as I was handling her a couple of Lai's.....
Sargent;
"IS THERE A PROBLEM HERE !!?"
I replied; "Not until YOU Showed Up....."
He firmly said, MOVE ON, and follow the Jeep ahead of you.
He then had a discussion with the Private....as he walked away,
In my mirror looking back,
She Winked and gave a Little side wave.

Best 10-15 minutes of the Whole Day!
