There is another event going on that weekend at Canton Lake, otherwise I would attend. Hope you get a good turnout!

We will be at the Canton lake campout as well. Good luck. When your all done come out to Canton Wildlife Management Area and say hi for a few. I can pin our location once there so you can find us. I'm sure Gared would be glad to meet a few more members while we are hanging out.

My son has a hockey game at the same time, otherwise I would love to attend! I’ll keep an eye out for future events. Thanks for the invite!

I may be able to attend... keep us posted.

I’ll set a reminder and try to make it

Good evening Oklahoma!

I know everyone is dealing with the crazy weather today and hope all is well. I managed to get out and take one of my dogs to the vet for his allergy shot and it was very slick but only in certain parts around Yukon.

I appreciate everyone checking in on the event created and I apologize in advance for not seeing the camping at Canton Lake on the same weekend. As a newcomer to the group, you can imagine my excitement in discovery of like-minded adventures and wishing to meet you in person.

I would love to pop by the camping site at Canton Lake depending on what other commitments I have that afternoon (aka - wife chores).

looking forward to meeting anyone that can make it.

Welcome to Monday!
Just wanted to check in to remind everyone the “Rigs and Coffee” will go on regardless of weather. The next few days will be challenging for the state but we should be cleared up for Saturday. I’ve very excited to meet fellow members in person and look forward to learning more about adventures in Oklahoma.
Message me if you have questions or suggestions.

Neither of my rigs are up for it and I have prior responsibilities, hopefully I can attend next time.

No worries @Prerunner1982
I’m sure we will catch up in person soon.

Excited for tomorrow's Rigs & Coffee and to meet folks in person. I wanted to share the flyer I created to hand out to everyone, especially for adventure-curious attendees.

My partners in crime, also very new to this group will be there for support.

Good Afternoon Folks!
The weather was much warmer today than the last few days and near perfect to meet people in person to connect. Thanks to @Kraken30078 for coming out to share his rig, experiences, and wisdom with everyone. We also had another couple, new to Oklahoma but very experienced Jeep travelers who tackled so many trails across the USA. We hope they will join us online in the group so they can benefit from the combined information here on OB.
I gave a few flyers to curious coffee drinkers and a few of the staff at Black Rifle Coffee Company.

We are looking at the possibility of an overnight close to the OKC metro area for the upcoming Lunar Eclipse on March 13-14, 2025. I will post information soon for that event.

Thanks to @SlimJimOKC @Kenny_Boy and Mackey for coming out to support today's meetup. You guys are the best! You can follow our adventures at Red Dirt Photographers but we were missing Bryan from our CORE Team.

Mackey took some photos of all of us while visiting the rigs and chatting. I will share those later with everyone, but here is an iPhone capture for fun.
