Ok, so we have a choice between 2 campgrounds. The normal Attica family campground which is at the entrance to the park, or the Summers campground which is 8 miles away, but quiter and cleaner. Please post which you would like so we can take a vote.

I'll have to change my vote from AFC to Summers. Sounds like it might be the nicer place to camp, and worth the extra time it would take to get to and from the off road park.

I'm in. I'll be there probably before dinner on friday unless people say they want to wheel on friday. I doubt I'll wheel Sunday, I've gotta haul the jeep to WI then come back to IL. I don't really care where we camp. AFC is super convenient and the shower building they've got now isn't too bad. I can also bring plenty of firewood.
Just post up when you're arriving.

I'm really open to either campground. AFC would be easier considering we'd all have our sway bars disconnected. I plan on leaving Kenosha about noon on friday and will be taking I-294 around the city.

Actually, everyone who utilized the showers there last time complained there was no hot water. The showers were cold.

You need a Currie Anti-Rock system.
I would suggest those (tent campers) who arrive first, grab sites along the outer (fence) wall.
Oh and I will not be attending this event.

So, who's driving down when, and how? I'm leaving Rockford on Friday, don't know what time yet. I was planning on going down 39 instead of driving past Chicago.

I'll be throwing my name in the hat for this run! Only wheeled with DDO once. Need to get out at least one more time before it gets too cold out. I plan on getting there saturday morning, camping saturday night, and dipping sunday morning,… Its a 5hr drive for me, which makes for a long saturday. 4:30am start time,… urgh

I guess I can leave whenever on Friday. I plan on wheelin all day saturday and packing up Sunday and heading back. People just say when they're gonna be there friday and I'm sure I'll coordinate. I'll probably shoot down Rt41 in Indiana.

We have a few guys going as well, and we're staying at Summers, we'll be all the way in the back in the primitive section.

Almost forgot – Adam and his dad, Mike are coming too. Mike just bought a JK too. Don't know about Shaun yet… Like I said before we will be leaving the Kenosha area at Noon for sure – might move it up to 11.
