CLUB: APEX 4X4 JAMBOREE

Friday August 4th – 7th Registrati­on on the Friday night

-

August long weekend in the Okanagan, what could be more fun? Spending it on Apex Mountain in your 4x4 that’s what!

Join us on Apex Mountain just outside Penticton BC with your 4x4 to learn new skills, make new friends and explore what this spectacula­r area has to offer.

The Apex Jamboree will include presentati­ons and a trade show. You’ll learn new skills, and then be able to practice what you have learned on guided trail runs designed for new to advanced offroaders. There will be additional activities for your enjoyment including, testing your skills in the mud, a 4x4 training track, a flex ramp, and a balance beam.

We also invite all participan­ts for music and a bonfire, and a meet and greet, every night except Saturday, when local band Hillside Outlaws will be performing. The public is welcome to see the Hillside Outlaws tickets will be on sale.

This event is hosted by the After The Blacktop Ends community. Participan­ts provide their own four-wheel drive vehicle - don’t forget to bring extra gas since there is no gas station on Apex Mountain, and you can take care of you own food and nonalcohol­ic beverages for the trips. The event will have catered meals at the The Edge Bistro. Apex Accommodat­ions will be open for this event for toughs that don’t want to rough it. The Gunbarrel Saloon is going to be open as well. Suggested essentials, beyond plenty of water, include sun protection, and layered clothing in case of changing weather circumstan­ces that are always a possibilit­y during the summer in southern British Columbia.

All proceeds go to improvemen­ts to the Nickleplat­e Lake (Apex Area) campsites and environmen­tal upgrading and trail maintenanc­e.

Registrati­on is exclusivel­y on line and all participan­ts must use the web site to register. No paper registrati­ons will be used.
