🚙 Hey Chicagoland Jeepers! 🚙
We’ve got an exciting gravel drive planned through our beautiful home state, and we’d love for you to join us!
📍 Route Overview:
We’ll be cruising about 60 miles, so expect a few hours of driving. This isn’t a race—it’s an adventure! Let’s enjoy the scenery, the company, and the open (gravel) road together.
🌽 What to Expect:
A scenic drive through Illinois cornfields
Plenty of chances to connect with fellow Jeepers
Some light off-road fun—nothing too crazy
We'll be using walkie-talkies for comms (channel will be announced at the meetup)
🕘 Schedule:
Meet-up Time: 9:00 AM
Departure: Between 9:30 and 9:45 AM
Start Location: White Oak Campground, 1398 N River Rd, Oregon, IL 61061
End Location: White Pines Forest State Park
🏕️ Camping Option:
Want to camp the night before? Lowden State Park offers year-round camping and is right nearby! If you’re camping out, let us know so we can all set up together—maybe even enjoy a pre-drive hangout.
🛑 Important Guidelines:
Let’s keep this fun and safe for everyone:
🚫 No speeding
🔇 No loud music
🔥 No burning rubber
🙌 Be respectful of locals and each other
🌊 Don’t blast through water crossings
🚗 Keep a safe following distance—no cracked windshields from flying rocks!
💨 Minimize dust and noise near homes
Thanks to @Maurice for sharing this awesome route with the group!
We’ll share more details as the date gets closer. Until then—mark your calendars and get those Jeeps ready! Can’t wait to hit the gravel with you all!
