Not sure how many of you already know about this event. Held June 9-11 at coopers lake campground. Near butler pa. Where the first bantam concept for the army was produced. Which led to the willys and ford jeeps. I will have the cj5 there in the show.

Great looking event! I like the trail ride for sure. Some good looking Jeeps there.

I was following the Bantam Jeep fest because it was the launching/ending point for the Epic Willys Adventure.

Someday I would like to take the Heep on one of their trips, because it falls into their criteria for participate.

It was really cool to see them there and watch them leave. Would definitely like to do it in my jeep as well. Looks like fun.
