This is going to be an epic trip! we will be leaving Thursday May 7th at 9am From Rockford Meijer and heading North to Saint Ignace where we will be camping for the first night in an awesome campsite. The next Morning is the day for the Bridge Crossing across the Mighty Mac! We will be packing up and heading to the staging area for check in, where there will be venders and Jeeps to look at! The Parade starts to roll out at 10am. After the parade we will be Heading to Drummond Island for the rest of the trip to run the Badge of Honor trail and anything else we can get ourselves in trouble with! Sunday Morning will be the day Most people will be heading home and back to the dreaded work week. If you haven't checked out an overlanding event with the club before this is a perfect one to be a part of. You don't need some fancy set up or anything to have a good time and see new places! There are people that overland out of their vehicle all the way up to setting up a Rooftop tent with all the amenities.
We do ask as a club that you are self-sufficient. You would need to have a way of making your own food staying warm at night and somewhere to sleep. Long as its not raining there will be a fire every night to hangout around and enjoy each other's company. With us going to Drummond Island you will have the option to air down your tires for a better ride quality throughout the bumpy trails! If you don't have a way to air up, please ask other members, we are always willing to help out. If you need any help whatsoever in making sure you have what you need, please reach out to your Trail Capton and Trail Assistant.
