The 2010 Summer Convention will be held at Uwharrie National Forest outside of Troy, NC. The convention will be hosted by the Carolina Trail Blazers 4wd Club and C.O.R.E.

There will semi primitive camping available at no charge with port-a-lets available. There is a country store with all necessary supplies including fresh cooked food and gas 1/2 mile from the convention site.

The Uwharrie OHV area offers 16 miles of Forest Service OHV trails that range from easy to moderately challenging in difficulty. Access to the OHV trail head is on FS roads so vehicles will need to be street legal and registered, or towed from the convention site, 2 miles to the trail head.

Make plans now to attend the 2010 Summer Convention and support SFWDA at it continues to be a voice for public land access in the South!

Arrowhead, the improved FS campground has hookups. Here are some links to some camping info:

Arrowhead fills up quickly so anyone wanting to stay there should move fast.

Sorry I didn't make the meeting, but I had truck problems when I was heading out Thursday morning.  How did the meeting and the trail rides go?  Any pictures?

We understand, Bob.  You were missed.
 
The meeting went well and the trail rides were great.
 
Pictures were taken, but not by me.  Check with John Craven ???
