When: Sunday, September 21st  2008

Where: Howard Park located in Ione, CA

Time: 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.

Come one, come all, and enjoy a day with fellow Jeepster friends. Join us for the 7th gathering at Howard Park in Ione Ca. This event is for everyone to attend regardless if your Jeepster is running or not and is FREE to everyone to attend, jeepster or not.
If anyone would like to volunteer to help out with the BBQ this year please let me know.

Also bring a few parts along to sell or trade. DO NOT bring trailers or large vans (u-haul type) full of used parts; instead bring what will fit in your vehicle. They will ask us to leave if it looks like a yard sale.



Paper plates, cups, napkins, forks and a gas bar-b-q will be supplied. Bring your chairs. We need everyone to bring their own meat, drinks, and one dish for the potluck. Might want to bring an awning for shade. Table top BBQ’s are also needed.
We will have the rest rooms open this year at the hall next to the park.
