Great Lakes Jeep Thing Annual Summer Bash!
Date(s): August 18-20
www.gljt.org
Summer is here again and once more It's time for GLJT's yearly wheelin event, Summerbash. The 'Bash is a favorite among the GLJT faithful, and many things have turned into tradition.
It's the place where The Bear feeds the masses, the place where you "earn" your nickname (whether it appeals to you or not), where new friends are made, old ones meet again, the trail rigs and tow rigs always break, tempers can flair, but once It's over, everyone wants to do it all over again.
