    March 29th UPDATE:

    We are seeking sponsors for the event. If interested, shoot me a message and I'll get you to the person in charge of sponsors. We are also looking for vendors that would like to set up at the event.

    There will be live music, food and a Jeep Pull competition!! T-shirts are being printed for the event.
    I can't release the band info, yet.

    May 9th-Note change-Team sizes changed to 4 member teams####The Jeep Pull competition will feature 4 member teams physically pulling a Jeep!!! You will be competing against other teams. Cost per team is $100. All proceeds benefit TARC.

    **Workdays for 4xFest are scheduled for Saturday and Sunday June 9th & 10th and June 16th & 17th. Starting times are 7:30am. Bring plenty of drinks to stay hydrated. Lots of places to eat nearby if you don't want to pack a lunch.
    Workdays may pop up on weekday afternoons. This depends on materials coming available. We will try to get the word out as soon as we know.
    We plan to bring logs to the property this week. We also may be getting some cinder blocks to haul to the property this week.
    We need tractors or equipment for moving dirt, logs and digging holes. Bring hammers, shovels, a generator with large drills, something to lash logs together for log pile and anything you have to help build the obstacle course.
    **The kids play area will have an area for them to ride their power wheels, if parents choose to bring them(power wheels). We cannot supply those. We will provide jumpers for the kids in that area.

    Looks like this could turn into a great yearly event to support TARC. For those who don't know, TARC is the group which provides services for children with special needs. Wonderful thing that they do, so lets do our part, show our support, and make this event really show them what we are made of.

    Thanks. We will be looking for lots of help in coming weeks to build the course.

    If anyone has a Bobcat or equipment that can be used to move dirt piles and logs, please let me know. Or, if anyone has access to equipment.

    Getting lots of good feedback. Excitement is building!!

    I'll be updating the thread as info comes available. We have permission to setup next to North Cypress for the event. We're still rounding up resources and putting together ideas from several folks from around the region.

    Sounds great to me! I was fine with an RDI ramp, but a course will do;)
