    I know that this is cutting it a littleshort, but you know me I like doing charity events and giving back to those in need. So post up if you want to come help the kids. And no not any of my 12. ;)

    What: Toys For Tots Charity Mountain Run and BBQ

    Where: Vogel State park/ N. Ga Mountains
    Meet at Wal-mart at 9 am. 270 Wal-Mart Way ยท Dahlonega, GA 30533

    Why: Charity and fun duh!

    Details: 4touge would like to invite you on a mountain tour to enjoy a scenic drive and BBQ at Vogel State Park on Blood Mountain. Your toy is your meal ticket and we ask that attendees bring an unwrapped $15-$20 gift that will be delivered to the Atlanta Children's Hospital in time for Christmas. A toy is required by passengers as well and admission to the park is $3-$5.

    Due to the nature of this event we ask that participants be mature and leave ego's at the base of the mountain. This is not a race, we don't like dealing with accidents or Johnny Law. Also be sure that your vehicle is in running condition with good tires/ brakes and most important, oil.
    THIS IS NOT A RACE, BUT AN OPPORTUNITY TO HAVE FUN, LEARN SOME NEW THINGS ABOUT YOUR DRIVING ABILITY, AND SEE SOME GREAT SIGHTS.

    Happy Holidays and Hope to see you there!

    I just met Alex (Face) at CFA and was telling me about this. I'll def. try to make this as long as everyone behaves themselves during the run. I just don't wanna deal with someone riding my ass the entire trip.

    Don't worry Steve the runs are usually broken down into skill and comfort level.

    No tires, otherwise I'd be up there. May I send/give you toys sometime before you make the trip to ACH though?

    Definitely, maybe we can arrange to meet at the following Tuesday night meet? I'm sure either Sean or myself can make it out, and anyone else can meet up there if they want to donate.

    Damn. I'll see if I can donate. I was trying to maybe get someone to cover for me on Sunday, but we have this STUPID GODDAMN MEETING AT 1PM WHICH IS MANDITORY.
    And I'm working Sunday mornings now... So fuck.

    Quote of the trip, from the nice older bearded mountain guy behind the cash register at Neals Gap:
    "Look at all those little airplane cars out there in the parking lot. The're like little go-karts."
