Trail Report:
- DTOR Daytrip, March 2nd
We did have a good turnout, and decent weather. We knew going in that it was an event weekend at DTOR, and decided to take our chances. It's wasn't horrible, but we probably won't do that again.

The place was a zoo, and they had the whole back half of the park closed off until mid afternoon. So we stuck mainly to the southeast portion of the park, exploring all the side trials coming up off the perimeter road. There's a lot more back there than I was aware of, it was cool to try some stuff we'd driven right past a hundred times before.

Very little carnage. Tony broke a driveshaft. One of the new kids we met kept overheating. And Zach lost a trailer tire on the way home. Nothing serious, certainly nothing to ruin a real nice day wheelin...
.

Upcoming Events:
- First Aid Response Class, March 23rd
This is next weekend already. Free for paid Members. $10/head for guests. We do need a headcount, so sign up quick if you're interested, here.

- Badlands Offroad, Attica IN, April 5-7th
Some place new on our calendar, or at least some place a lot of us haven't been in a long time. Friday night to Sunday afternoon. Reserve a spot with RV hookups, or just show up n primitive camp. Signup, details and links in the thread here.

- Rush Trail Clearing, May 3-5th
A springtime tradition. We work a little, wheel a lot, and help build Rush into the park we want it to be. This year, in addition to the drawing for a year's pass, the Club has decided to buy all participants a Rush teeshirt from their souvenir shop. Should be great!
.

Other News and Happenings:
- Rush Pass Giveaway
We had our drawing at the March Meeting for the general Membership Giveaway (not to be confused with the additional pass for the Spring Trailwork participants). The lucky winner was Mr Rich Santefort, surely in cosmic karma for him welcoming us all out to his farm every year. Congratulations Rich!
