There has been some behind the scenes talk for late October or the first week of November for GWNF in VA, but nothing has been firmed up yet...

I don't want to speak for anybody, but it's likely that Kyle and I will both be going, but taking 1 vehicle... My buddy in the TJ Rubicon may also be going...

I am a solid maybe for this right now. I should know for sure how things look as I get towards the end of September.

I think they usually meet near Harrisonburg VA but not sure if that is still the same but it's about a 5 hr drive for me so I'll just drive up friday morning. Should be able to get a good time figure with just the town until details are worked out.
