no $$$ no trying...

Stuipid iPhone, this is all I get from the site,

Announcement for Jeep Jamboree 2007

Jeep Jamboree Canada events are cancelled for 2007.

Due to a change in operational funding we will not be able to offer Jeep Jamboree events in 2007.

We are continuing to work towards having Jamboree events in 2008.

We are seeking new sponsorship that would support the program in future years.

Thank you for your patronage. You are welcome to browse the site, look at pictures from past years in the Scrapbook or talk to other Jeep owners through our Message Board.

We look forward to seeing all of you again next year.

Keep wheelin’!

---------------------------

now at home pc, I see they have 2 events for 2010, but yeah, far away.

Well hold on. If they are back and have a good year this year they might be looking to expand.
As well ACE is expanding every year  so we might see it become a Jamboree.  Cory any comments?

The ACE event is successful as it is. Why mess with it?

I sure hope they can make this work this time.  The jamborees were awesome before and hopefully it will come back to Alberta.

Locations for 2010 New for 2010... Jamborees now run Saturday  & Sunday!

Jeep® Jamboree Canada has planned two events for this year.

Our July weekend event will be held in and around beautiful scenic Port Alberni on Vancouver Island, in British Columbia.  This event will  combine Canada Day and the US 4th of July celebrations.

In September, we will once again venture to the Kawarthas region of Ontario. 
We offer a new Base Camp and new trails.
With our late September dates, we will be able to enjoy the fall colours plus the beautiful scenery of the area.
