Hello, I recently joined NAXJA and I am also a member of the Fat Boys Jeepers. I would like to invite all of you to the 3rd Annual GHD at Haspin. We are hosting this trailride for everyone's enjoyment. We will be having a raffle that day with the proceeds helping out a fellow member of FBJ. This person has had a LOT of sickness and surgeries lately and him and his family can sure use the help.
I know a lot people have bad ideas about Haspin, but it is a completely different place in January. There are very few people on atv's and buggies there at this time of year. (We usually have the place to ourselves.) I don't believe we have ever had anyone go away without having a good time at our Ground Hog's Day Trailride. If nothing else you will get a free meal out of the deal. Look me up, I will be there (in my CJ).
See ya at GHD,
Kelly Stewart
Feel free to contact me for more info.

THIS JUST IN FROM OUR HEAD COOK:

As you know, it's about time for the Ground Hog to rear his head, and that means I get to cook!! My main difficulty is to guess for how many! Please, if you are planning on attending, please let me know! I have never had to tell anyone, "there isn't any food left", and I don't want to do that this year! But I do need a probable count! Please let me know! [email protected] and if you know of someone that's planning to come or would enjoy it, that doesn't have a computer, let them know about the run.
For those of you that have never attended the Ground Hog Day Run before, we serve great HOT chili, hot dogs and other odds 'n ends. This year we are adding a small amount of spicy hot chili and we are going to try and have a bon fire this year as well, so I'm going to try and remember to bring marshmallows as well. We've been there when the temperature was rated the coldest morning of the year in 2004 ( -13 without windchill), and it was the best time I have ever had!!

Plan on coming and let me know! It's an unbelievably GREAT TIME!!!
 
Is there a web site or link to Haspin Acres?
 
Hey Kelly I was at Haspin this past weekend with 4WTF and had a blast. It was a MUDDY mess but we all enjoyed it. I think if I start washin now and give a good two hours a day i should be clean by that week end :laugh3:. I know there is at least 10 vehicles coming from 4WTF and that is just who talked about it on Saturday while we there.
 
There is nothing like that good ol' Haspin mud. Hopefully, the weather will turn colder and the ground will freeze. It will make things much better for GHD. Hope to see you there.
