September 2016 CSC Meet
Author: Rich @Otter
INTRODUCTION OF FIRST TIME GUESTS / NEW MEMBERS
New member Abigail @Abigail (and Oreo!) made it to her first meeting with her 2004 100 series.
First time guest John brought his 2011 4Runner Trail Edition.
ROTM
Run Of The Month series is for everyone to get out with their trucks, regardless of skill level, so everyone can learn how to wheel safely. No one wants to see someone damage their truck. Don't be shy about volunteering to lead a monthly run. You get to pick the date and the location (you can get plenty of ideas for trail rides from other members). There are several members with lots of knowledge about local trails and can offer assistance on leading the group on the day of the run.
August ROTM - Adam @floggerdogger organized a trip to Riggs Flat lake. Here's the thread for further details August ROTM - Riggs Flat Lake.
September ROTM - Alvis @Cruddz organized a run on the Pyeatt Draw Trail with overnight camping and even a potluck on this run. Here's the thread for further details September ROTM - Pyeatt Draw.
October ROTM - Brice @brices123 is leading a Casner Trail run with camping October 14-16. This is a limited run for the main trail (10 trucks max), but there will be additional activities and camping for those who can't make the main run. Check the thread for details October ROTM - Casner Trail & Camping.
November ROTM - Steve @Saddletramp is going to co-lead a Log Corral run to 393. Log Corral is a more difficult run, but a "yet to be named" co-leader will bring a group in on 393. The groups will camp near the lake and leave out on 393 the next morning. Keep an eye on the forum for the November ROTM thread.
December ROTM/Meeting - Last year Don @oilbrnr held the CSC Xmas party at his house. In his absence at this meeting, it was determined that he would do the same thing this year . Someone please let Don know.
January ROTM - Brent @coldbeerbrent volunteered to lead this run.
Keep an eye on the forum for dates and threads for these runs.
If you lead a ROTM, here's a good template for your trip reports - CSC Trip Report template.
ADDITIONAL BUSINESS
Phil @LandCruiserPhil discussed a possible Colorado run in August 2017.
Last year, Camelback Toyota sponsored a CSC show and shine event last November - Camelback Toyota November 2015 Meeting. It was a huge success. There has been some discussion of another one this year. Stay tuned for details.
Alvis @Cruddz volunteered to handle the production of some CSC business cards. They will have the club logo, web address, Mud forum address, etc. These will be great to hand out to prospective Land Cruiser owners. (So you don't have to wait around like a stalker in the grocery store parking lot for the owner to come out to the vehicle.)
Thanks to Jackson @medtro for taking pics.
