It's A Family Affair

JAMBOREE JEEP

Let’s just start with this – when your adult children acquire trail-worthy vehicles, a whole new world of adventure opens to all. Suddenly, there’s a cluster of like-minded family members just waiting to say yes to the next off-road adventure. And that cluster includes me, my husband, three daughters, three sons-in-law and four Jeeps.

As well as three grandkids that have had minimal exposure to the Rubicon Trail, even though living in Georgetown, it’s basically in our back yard.

But when you think of two adults taking their three children camping in the wilderness in a four-seater Jeep, the math is just as confusing as Common Core, with the same sad outcome. And then the ante goes up because we all know that three is not a good number, especially with two teenaged boys and one nine-year-old girl, so factor in an additional nine-year-old girl, for a total of six, all rocking on ready for the adventure.

Now it’s a given that some will be riders, and some will be walkers, but who will be the eaters and what will they eat? Because it’s hard enough to pack the camping gear, much less the food to hold all six over for a weekend. What is a parent to do?

I have a simple suggestion for that dilemma: register for the 42nd Annual Jeep Jamboree, featuring Camp Rubicon, a three-day trip, held July 31 - Aug. 2, 2020.

Not to be confused with the much larger Jeepers Jamboree, a three or four-day, adult-oriented trip into Rubicon Springs, the Jeep Jamboree spans three days and welcomes kids age 6-17 to enjoy the adventure in a more family-friendly atmosphere with activities specifically designed for this age group to enjoy the natural surroundings as they learn how to preserve them for years to come.

But let’s start at the beginning… here’s a recap of the 2019 event:
