2015 Jeep 101 - Sat. June 6
« on: April 06, 2015, 08:29:48 AM »
The Calgary Jeep Association is pleased to announce the 8th annual Off-Road 101 Course

This is a one day, family friendly course that is open to anyone that will introduce participants to the basic skills that are necessary during an Off-Road adventure, as well as safe and environmentally friendly practices while on the trail.

Rough outline of the day:
The course will take place at the Mclean Creek off highway land use area.  We will be meeting at the Mclean Creek store from 7:30 am to 8:30 am. At 9am we'll start with introduction to off-roading instruction, along with various beginner obstacles to get you acquainted with your jeeps capabilities. Around noon we'll have a short lunch break (you’re responsible to bring your own lunch as well as addition food and drinks the rest of the day).  Then we'll head out for a trail ride with CJA members providing instruction and support throughout the way.  Please note that this is an off-roading activity and there is always the possibility that damage and scratches can occur to any vehicle.  The trail guides will do their best to prevent / minimize any potential damage to the vehicles, but the potential is always there.


The number of registrants will be limited to 20

Date: Saturday, June 6, 2015

Registration is on a first come, first serve basis.  Please send a PM to:  specialk

Entry fee: Donation to the Calgary Jeep Association Trail Fund.

In Google....go from your location to mclean creek campers centre.  That should navigate you to the right spot.
