Operation Desert Fun, Oct 17-19

Don't know if anyone's heard of this, but it sure seems to be a great cause and looks to be a fun event.

Here's the press release:

OPERATION DESERT FUN 2003
October 17-19
Ocotillo Wells SVRA

San Diego, CA ? The California Association of 4 Wheel Drive Clubs, Inc. is pleased to announce Operation Desert Fun, a desert adventure to benefit the Cal-Diego Paralyzed Veterans Association and Cal 4 Wheel. Like the charity event previously held every February, Operation Desert Fun will be held at the Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area, Ocotillo Wells, CA (35 miles east of Julian) and will include runs for all SUV?s, 4x4?s, Buggies, Baja?s, Motorcycles and ATV?s (sorry, no ATC?s).

Come out Friday night to try your luck on the Moonlight Poker Run. All vehicles are welcome to try for the best poker hand and vote on their favorite poker stop. Or use your GPS to guide you to a series of clues that lead you back to camp. Several other games are in the works, so stay tuned!

On Saturday, you will have many runs to choose from ranging from SUV novice to body-damage-likely! Duel Sport motorcycles can take a journey while another run takes all vehicle types on a run with games and lots of fun. No matter what toy you bring, we have a run for you! Then Saturday night, we will hold not only a raffle for the adults, but one for the kids too!

All proceeds from both raffles go directly to the Cal-Diego PVA.
Registration for multi-seat vehicles is $40 (if pre-registered by October 1st), single seat vehicles $20, single-seat vehicles for kids 17 and under (accompanied by a parent or legal guardian) $5, and the Duel Sport Motorcycle Run $35. Cal 4 Wheel will be receiving the proceeds from registration to cover the cost of the event, and to help in the fight to keep public land open and accessible to all of us.
