Hello Jim Palmer here

just want to say hello

I have been a member of the Overland Jeepers of Maine since before it was formed (founding member). I have been on the BOD for years.

Much to my displeasure we have not been a member of the Association,That I believe will soon change.

Could someone please send me the needed info?

I will be at the raffle Saturday maybe some one can pull me aside there.

looking forward to work together with you all in the future.

Jim

HI JIMMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got all that literature crap, I'm minding it for scott, I'm probably going to miss the meeting, but I hope to be at the raffle.

Paul

edit: Scott, I need to give you back all this literature crap at some point.

Bring it Saturday

Jim if you can arrive a little early the NEA is meeting at 10am in Derry NH.

I understand that the egg is also going to be raffled and I will do my best to things on track and finish early.

If you are interested the meeting is being hels at the Marrion Gerrish Community Center in Derry NH

Directions:

From Mass:
Rte 93 North to Exit 4 Derry NH. At end of exit ramp take a RIGHT. Go
through 1 light down a hill and part way back up the hill the Marion Gerrish
Community Center will be on your left. Note: Derry News is across the
street.

From No. NH:
Rte 93 South to Exit 4 Derry NH. At end of exit ramp take a LEFT. Go through 1 light down a hill and part way back up the hill the Marion Gerrish
Community Center will be on your left. Note: Derry News is across the

I can make some copies of the lit and bring it to Jim if Scott can't get to it this week.

Hi Jim - nice coverage of you guys in Low-Range

BTW we need Mainers on board. Robin and Don met with members of the ME state senate and they weren't impressed with our numbers in ME

Scott

Welcome Jim!!!

I don't think I can get there for the meeting but will be at the raffle

He is referring to the White Mountain National Forest. As I understand it they are going through some sort of planning stage for useage but have left the 4wd community out as they did the snowmobiles. The snow guys got organized and got their local National reps involved and got their access back. We are trying to do the same thing but we dont have a large base of members and our senators or reps are having a hard time pushing for support for us for a perceived very small group.

Jim,

There are a couple more threads about this on this forum. It would be worth the read if you can get to them.

Opps that was me.

Jim - Don and I met with Reps Bass and Michaud and they are very supportive of motorized recreation in the WMNF, they believe there is enough room for everyone to recreate in the forest. They are willing to intervene with the rangers on our behalf. Numbers are very important so having OJME on board is huge! Hope to meet you at Dom's on Saturday.

Sorry, one slight correction is Allen not Bass. Yes, I agree they were very receptive to getting us trail access and not only said they would help to arrange a meeting but would help put pressure on the WMNF to get us a trail.

hello all

I brought it up at the meeting last night,I would say will will be going .

If someone could please send me some info PAUL

Lou Rumore is our new President and he should be showing up here soon

Look forward to working with you all soon

Jim

My Bad Jimmy.
I forgot for a few days, then remembered, then forgot again.
I will put you together a package and send it out tomorrow.

Club meeting today so now I'm pumped to work on wheeling stuff.

I mailed it!!!

I swear I did!!

Cool beans.

Hi Jimmie!!!

It was the Assoc brochure, some printout on "is the assoc right for you".
A leaflet on Maine Liability Laws, and NH Liability laws,

oh

and a $100 gift certificate to your local liquor supermart.


j/k

got it today

haven't opened it yet



thanks Paul

the toy is going sweet by the way

Jim

Bastard.
I knew I should have kept that truck.









did you get that clunk in 4wd fixed?
Did you do the wheel bearings and hubs yet?
I was planning on doing that.

yeah the trucks all fixed,I think he said the clunk was ball joints.

BTW we aren't incorpotated,we have discussed it and always said no.

Can you send me what ever info you have on this

Jim

Incorporation or seeking incorporation is a requirement for membership

This is a HUGE protection from any type of personal liablity for the officers and members of the club. It isn't expensive and is easy to do.

Scott

it's something we will work on

we just never saw the need

Jim

any word on us?

we sent in some $ and were wondering.

thanks

Jim

If you sent money to the PO box is is still in the PO Box. I empty it every Saturday.
