What is a Jeep Jamboree?
For over 50 years, Jeep owners and their guests have participated in unforgettable weekend outings called
Jeep Jamborees. With gear piled high and anticipation running even
higher, Jeep 4x4 enthusiasts have trekked down long-abandoned logging
roads, chased rocky trails through canyons, and explored forgotten
mines and ghost towns. Rarely have they driven on paved roads. Rarely
have they wanted to.
These trips that wind through every
spectacular corner of the country - trips that match every skill
level and budget. Take a leisurely drive to see spring blooms or autumn
colors. Or join those intrepid souls who challenge the Rubicon Trail in
California - the most demanding 22 miles of off-highway driving in
America and the place where Jamborees began.
Fun-filled Jeep Jamborees provide unprecedented opportunities to discover stunning backcountry, challenge
your vehicle, and meet friendly people who are as genuine as the
Jeep vehicle itself. In over 50 years, some things never change.
The Annual Catskill Mountains
Jeep Jamboree is a fun filled event for all skill levels of Jeep
owner from showroom stock to modified. The wide variety of trails
offers participants challenges at all levels with a fun filled weekend
you'll be sure never to forget. Ford a stream, climb over rocks,
splash through deep mud and see some of the best unspoiled scenery the
Catskills has to offer, some of which may only be seen by four wheel
drive.

A breakfast buffet is served
to participants early Friday morning
as groups break off to their perspective trails for a day of
off-roading adventure. A prepared lunch is provided for a break
on the trail to enjoy with your fellow Jeepers. After an
afternoon of trails, return to Mr.
Willys for dinner and nightly activities & entertainment.
Try your luck balancing your jeep on logs or climb over a crushed
car. You'll be amazed what your Jeep vehicle and you can
do! After dinner watch videos of the day's activities on one of
the provided TV's at Mr.Willy's or join others outside by the nightly
bon-fire.
Saturday is much of the same,
but with your choice of different trails. After a gourmet dinner,
winners are drawn for a wide
variety of prizes which include a Ramsey Winch, a set of Good Year
Tires and many other items. Join us around the fire and listen to
the sounds of the scheduled nightly entertainment.
Sunday morning there is a
continental breakfast at Mr.Willy's before your trip home with plenty
fond memories, lots of good pictures and just a little more mud on that
Jeep than when you arrived!
