FJ Cruisers of Northern California
51st Annual CA4WDC Convention
When- February 19-21, 2010
Where- Doubletree Inn / Sacramento, CA
I am not sure how many of you know about Cal4WD. They have been arounbd for a long time and do a bunch to keep trails open here in the state. They also run severl events during the year. Thsi is a great event to go and spend some time st. They have classes, a trade show with venders and sponsers.
I am planning on going to this.
Here is the web site for more info:

1-5 pm. The Hospitality Room will open at 6:30 pm on Friday. In the Hospitality
Room, besides the usual “hospitality” we will have three projectors showing
CA4WDC event pictures (if you have any to share please contact me ASAP). The
Hospitality Room will go until 12pm or until interest wanes.
Saturday will start with the Life Member Breakfast from 8am-10am. Also on Saturday morning there will be a variety of seminars. We believe there is something to
interest everyone with seminars on Dutch oven cooking and geocaching, a
Pampered Chef demo and more. Check out your registration packet for a complete
list and times. The Vehicle Show will open Saturday morning as well. It starts
at 10am and goes until 2pm. There will be Military Vehicles, 4X4’s, as well as
Classics. The show is open to any and all vehicle “toys” – see this link
for an application.
Saturday afternoon the first session of the General Assembly will be from 1 to 5 pm. Then to start Saturday evening the No-Host bar will open at 6 pm. At 6:30 pm,
in keeping with the convention theme, the call to dinner will be an incredible
parade including a Color Guard, Bag Pipes and the playing of Taps and the
honoring of four-wheelers who have served our country. During and following
dinner there will be several guest speakers/presentations including the
presentation of CA4WDC’s annual awards. All this leads up to the drawing for
the Sweepstakes Vehicle.
On Sunday morning the General Assembly’s second session will deal with the remaining items on the agenda. This session and the Trade Show will end around
noon. In the afternoon from 1pm-5pm a New-Old BOD meeting will close out the
convention.

BUMP
cuz its getting close.
Cal4WD is a great organization thats has been around for 50 years helping to keep our trail open as well has host several event in the state during the year. Only "problem" (not really a problem, more like an issue, well not even an issue, more like its just how things are) is that there are many many more Jeep people than there are Toyota folks. Now, I am not saying anything bad about Jeeps or anything like that but It would be great to have a mass amount of Toyotas there to show that there is a large amount of toyota owners out there who support Cal4WD..
So bottom line here, if you can attend this event PLEASE try Its close being up in SAC. There is also a dinner on Saturday. Its not cheap ($60 a plate) but remember this is how they raise money for the year so its not about the food. I simply cannot say how important it is to help support this organization which does so much to give ALL a place to wheel........
