Hoping to attend this as well. New to OB and Overlanding. Additional info around how the meetups work and what I'd need to do to confirm would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dano,

there are lots of good FB groups that have meetups as well. Are you on the Overland Bound - Midwest FB group for example? I'd love to connect and we could share events, meet ups, and trail rides information. This summer is going to be touch and go for my unfortunately as my dad has just gone into hospice. I am planning on doing the "Trail Ride To Remember" event in Red River Gorge, KY in a few weeks. This will be a trail ride for all levels of experience and all types of vehicles from stock to heavily modified and use the Daniel Boone Backcountry Byway.

Regards,

James

Thanks for letting me know about the FB group, that was news to me. I've submitted a request to be added to the group. I'll definitely look at your event as well. That's an area we're targeting already as part of a partial KAT trip we'd like to do, so I'm very interested in that one. Is that listed on the OB forums, or somewhere else?
EDIT: spelling

Great! Both Kent and Corrie are admins so I am sure you'll get added in no time. As for the event, I'm not sure it's listed. I will be adding some KYTLCA events if some others don't. So many things have been cancelled this spring / summer it's hard to tell. It sounds like the event that I mentioned as well as another are a go - so I'll probably add them barring the aforementioned family issues mentioned above - that's most likely where you'll find me throughout the summer. Callie's Campground in Stanton, KY is the location. The Bowen family that runs this campground is VERY overland / off-road friendly and you'll find a lot of meets base out of that location.

I'm new as well, but I clicked the attending tab, then selected going. I'm pretty sure that's it.

If this is wrong, I'm going to be sitting in a field, all alone, feeling a bit odd...

It looks like this event is full and capped at 20 vehicles. I had not previously signed up because I am currently dealing with a hospice situation with a parent. There are quite a few events in the area I want to attend. I'll be supporting a lot of the KYTLCA events locally (unrelated to this event) directly whether I am able to participate or not.

I'm going down a day early in order to visit a couple of other distilleries.

That said, most of them are still closed including Woodford, Four Roses and Maker Mark.

Just wondering how this might affect this trip?

FYI - I was able to book Lux Row and Heavenly on Thursday...

I want to come, but I don't want to say I am and then not be ale to and keep someone who can from attending. Also, what is the cost to attend this event ?? And I am assuming I will need a text or sleep in the vehicle, correct ?? Thanks
