2016 Ouray FSJ Invasion Changes

Hi Everyone -

Krista and I are stepping down from organization of this gathering. We still plan to be there, just not in the usual "den mother" capacity. We have two other FSJN members who are stepping up to work with the KOA Dave and Debra regarding held sites and reservations at the KOA, etc. Once they feel comfy with this, an official announcement will be made regarding when the 2016 Ouray FSJ Invasion is held.

Meanwhile, the dates are July 13, 14, 15 - the trail ride days of Wednesday, Thursday, Friday. The KOA is holding Sites 43-53 for our group for July 12 through 16. Call at your convenience and get reserved. Ask for Dave or Debra and tell them you are with the FULL SIZE JEEP group. FSJ does not always work because it can be confused with FJ group. I do know 47 is already reserved by Casey Curtis as his usual site.

Thanks to all of you who have come and supported Ouray FSJ Invasions 2001 through 2015! :-bd :fsj:

Peace -

Yeah, buddy; I gotta say that you and Krista looked tired in Ouray this year. I'm sure your friends not arriving until 1am the night before had a part in that, but even over the next three days you just seemed stretched a little thin. Also I talked with Krista for a bit while earning Chiefs love and adoration and I completely see where you guys are coming from. It's a great big world and life is short! Ouray is awesome but it is not the sum of all awesomeness. There are beaches to walk, sights to see, and all manner of experiences that deserve the time and attention to get there. Thank you guys so much for all that you've done in the past and for being such great friends since before we even met in real life over a decade ago! I can't wait to see you again next year and HOPEFULLY in Grand Lake in February, but no pressure. ;)

Thank you guys for everything you do/have done! We are already making plans to be there next year hopefully on a fsj as well. Mine is not looking likely but my little bro (13) just got one and is hooked so we may be bringing his. On a side note if there is anything I can do to help with the planning/organization I would be more than happy to give any help I can.

I can't add any more except also thank you two for the years of hard work and planning. We called it unorganized but we know you still spent a lot of time on this, especially keeping track of the camp sites. It was a great tradition you started. Thank you.

Thanks for all your work over the years!

I heard some names while at camp, but who are the official folks now?

Thanks for the kind words everyone. :-bd

I am happy to say Michael Shimniok and Scott Roberts will be teaming up to cover the bases Krista and I have been covering for a while. They are both great guys that I have wheeled with over the last 14 or so years. :fsj:
