    Great American Jeep Rally, Shrewsbury, MA, 9/29

    Massachusetts based event. I went last year. Great turnout, good time, TONS of Jeeps!!

    NAME OF EVENT: The Great American Jeep Rally

    DATE OF EVENT: Sunday, September 29, 2002

    HOURS: 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM

    LOCATION: 575 Hartford Turnpike, Shrewsbury, MA (on Route 20)

    DESCRIPTIONS OF EVENT: The Baystate Jeepers, Inc. proudly presents
    its second annual Great American Jeep Rally to support the NorthEast
    Association of 4WD Clubs and to raise money for local charities!
    This event will be held again at the Hebert?s Candy Mansion on Sunday,
    September 29, 2002 in conjunction with the Spirit of Shrewsbury celebration.
    The Rally was such a success last year that the Baystate Jeepers were in demand
    to return with another one. This event is similar to the ever popular "cruise nights"
    at the Mansion, but it is limited to strictly Jeeps. Any Jeep, to include: off-highway,
    stock, military restorations, antiques, monster Jeeps, and so on, may be entered.
    The NEA4WDC is dedicated in helping the cause for outdoor recreationalists.
    This association is involved with the management of our public lands to keep them
    open to the public and clean.

    The Great American Jeep Rally 2002 is proud to help support these worthy causes!

    ADMISSION: Public is invited to view ?Free?, and a suggested donation of $5.00
    (or more) for display vehicles.

    ORGANIZATIONS: Baystate Jeepers, Inc., NorthEast Association of 4WD
    Clubs and the Hebert Candy Mansion.

        For you, it's basically the Mass Pike (I-90) East to the exit to Rt.146 South (don't know the number for that one off-hand, but it's just past Worcester), then take that to Route 20 East, and follow Rt. 20 East a few miles to Hebert's Candy's on your right-hand side.

        It's really a great show; we could put up a good FSJ showing this year. Last year it was just me and a really nice lifted Cherokee Laredo on 35's representing the full-size crowd.

            I was there briefly in my CJ last year (before I owned a GW) Future in-laws were in town and I couldn't stay, but it seemed a pretty good meet, but sorely lacking in FSJ's.

            Would be great to see a good showing this year.

            I'm in.

              I was there last year in my scrambler but it would be nice to have more FSJs, that's why I wanted to post it here. Might also be a good chance to do some parts swapping. I picked up a few things last years, some shops set up booths and there are some area clubs also. Also if you use the address above maybe you can find directions with mapquest or sometihng. I last year I just took rt9 to rt20 coming east.

                  Heh,

                  for those of you with GPS, I made a Waypoint there last year.

                  The Hebert Candy Mansion is at

                  N 42°15'39.1"
                  W 71°41'48.3"

                  So now you can just straight-line to it!

                      I didn't want this to fall off the map so back to the top.
                      Just a few more weeks for this. See you there

                            Now if I could just get the engine changed in the Cherokee and drive that instead....With three jeeps in the driveway (and someone trying to give me a free Postal Jeep) I should be able to find something to drive [img]tongue.gif[/img]
