October 14, 2006

Convoy leaves at 1:00 pm.



"Paradise Excursion 3" will be a benefit run for the American Caner Society. The Paradise Excursion will be a two day event. Registration will consist of signing a waiver and a $15.00 per vehicle donation.



All money raised will benefit A.C.S., a non-profit organization that raises money to help in cancer research education and to fin a cure for cancer.

The trails will be riden once early in the afternoon and then agian in the early evening, after the sun has gone down. The night ride has been singled out as the most luring part of the Paradise Excursion's. After the Night ride, everyone can gather around the bonfires in one of the two different areas of the property. One site at the Beach and the other in the Campsite area.

Dinner will be provided by AWOL, at a $5.00 per bowl donation to the fundraiser. We will also be selling breakfast in the morning for $3.00 donations. Again, this is all for a good cause.

If you chose to stay the night, you should bring enough supplies to camp in a tent or sleep in your vehicle warmly.

If you only wish to participate on Saturday day, you will be allowed to ride both the trail runs on the property on Saturday, including the night ride. If you wish to ride Sunday only, registration will be at 8:00am at Burger King on the I-55 University Exit 32 in Hammond. The Sunday crew will be lead to the property by trail guides who will collect signed waivers and $15.00 donations.

Remember, this is for a good cause. We appreciate your participation and donation.

The event will start with registration at Buffalo Wild Wings in Hammond at 12:00pm.

It is recommended that everyone have lunch before 1:00.

The convoy will leave for the Paradise Property at 1:15 pm.

Upon arrival at Paradise, everyone will have sufficent time to untrailer, drop off extra supplies and air down if necessary.

When all trail preparations are ready, we will embark on the trails.

When we make it back to the pavillion area we will setup camp. Those who wish to not participate in the night ride, should leave the property at that time. Everyone will be given time to eat dinner and prepare their 4x4's.

The Night Ride will begin at 7:00 pm. The property will be ridden in its entirety.

When the Night Off-roading is complete, the 2 Bonfires will be lit and everyone can retire to the campsite at their own discretion.

If you wish to only ride on the Sunday Morning Run you should meet the trail staff at the Burger King on the Univeristy Exit of I-55 in Hammond at 8:00am Sunday Morning. You can give the Trail Staff your $15.00 donation and fill out your waiver. The waivers will be collected at the Trialhead.

The Morning Run will start after breakfast is served, around 9:30am.
