2nd Annual Jeepers Rally For Life a Big Success

Last Saturday, a large number of Jeepers gathered at Erwin's Chrysler Jeep in Troy, Ohio and paraded to the Miami County Fairgrounds to participate in the Relay for Life Jeep Rally. Participants drove their Jeeps through the "playground" in front of the grandstand. We had rocks to climb, obstacles, hills, mud and other fun Jeep things to conquer. After the Rally at the fairgrounds, the Jeeps returned to Erwin's for lunch, a presentation by the American Cancer Society on services available locally, Jeep games, a DJ and raffle items. This year many more Jeepers showed up in part due to the support of Erwin's, Miami County Fairgrounds, three Jeep Clubs (Sidney's Buckeye Jeepers, Dayton's Muddy Buddy's and Indiana's Fat Boys) and many other sponsors and vendors . One of the Jeep club members said, "Jeepers get to help and to learn from people who are fighting the battle against cancer and to remember those that have lost the battle. When relayers watch a Jeep do something seemingly impossible, in some small way it could help them face some of their seemingly impossible obstacles."
