I volunteered too, though I don’t have any cool skills (like med) other than a strong back and a sharp mind. I’ll be camping as well. Still trying to decide if I’m bringing the trailer or just a ground tent.

As the date gets closer, let’s find a place to meet up.
I also volunteered in early June since I have recently retired and have the time. Has anyone heard back from the event about their volunteer status? Nothing urgent here but I do need to start nailing down plans, etc.

I haven’t heard back yet, either.

We are heading up that way and plan to attend and camp on site. Have our tickets already. Leaving from SF area in California and will meander our way over. No solid route yet, but we are thinking it's a good time to explore Colorado a bit. Looking forward to getting out there.

Most likely one of my dogs will be joining me at expo west. I live closeby so I won't be camping, that said who is interested in a trail run on Friday sat or Sunday? If so how far out from the expo are you willing to travel for trail runs/meetups?

Good but still not going
No one cares man about your politics, depart this thread, thanks.

For the rest, im departing Reno/Tahoe on the 23rd or 24th to take it slow to the event. Then post event we've got a small group headed into the mountains for some camping and exploring some new spots.

I will be driving in from Las Vegas and camping at the Expo. Is there going to be an OB meet up at some point during the weekend?
There hasnt been anything planned officially , i know alot of the local guys are going to be at Overland Expo on Saturday so we could coordinate meeting up there, I'll also be at expo on Friday to hit up a few vendors early. Would y'all like to do a meet up somewhere at Expo or maybe at a local bar or something? we could even go for an OB Rigs and Coffee style thing

I like this idea, Sunday morning rigs and coffee somewhere? Dark Heart Coffee Bar looks good

It'll be good to see you, Sean!

I'm waiting for the official posting, but there's a Saturday morning coffee meet planned at the Zargus booth (9AM) with OB founders. Also, a potential informal meet at camp Friday evening.
