My Jeep will probably be at our booth, so no sense in registering for the show.

[Edit : I may be towing our RTI ramp out to York, so I may not take my JK, will have the Commander instead.]

York in July can be very, very hot
Nothing like jumping in a nice cool pool after being in those dusty fairgrounds all day

The York All Breeds Jeep Show started about 11 years ago, and get bigger and better every yaer with more and more venders showing up. They have some good events and raffle of some nice components. The first year I went back in 97 there were about 40 Jeeps, split between CJ's, Wranglers, and XJ. Now it gets pretty crowded with hundreds of entries, and that's not counting the Jeeps parked outside the fence right by the Fairgrounds. Last year I met a few guys from Canada. If you want to enter, I would suggest you do it online rather than at the gate. Last year there were some entries turned away because it was just too full inside the gate. I got there a bit late on Saturday and had a hard time finding parking near the gate. Alot of campers both in RV's and tents right outside the fence. Great time for anyone showing up.
Here's a few pics from last year.

Im registering, easy no-queue entrance & parking, presuming we'll have a JK area.

I cannot stay for the awards ceremony & Sunday afternoon HUGE parts raffle. Ticketholders must be present to win, so buy me a beer and you may win a winch....
