Ouray FSJ invasion 2024

Post by Grand_Wag_85 »

*****2024 Information ********

Invasion Dates: July 17th thru July 19th 2024
Potluck and Raffle: July 18th

Tent sites reserved: T12-T25
If you aren’t going to stay in a tent, please let them know you are with the FSJ group and you will get 15% off. Must be reserved BEFORE April 30th, 2024.


BIG ASK: If you find that you need to cancel your reservation and you are in one of the tent sites listed please ask the group to see if anyone is interested in the site. Otherwise they just go back into the pool for all versus just our group.
Also in between sites T30 and T31 are the horses, so keep that in mind when reserving your site.


It’s that time of year. July is fast approaching and we need to come up with a theme and a logo for 2024.

In 2023 we had several memorable instances involving water crossings for myself and Jeff Kirby.

I have a loose idea harkening back to the movie jaws. Something along the lines of “I think you need a higher intake” or “just when you thought it was safe to go back to Ouray”.

Totally open to ideas and suggestions. Towards the end of the month, I’m going to have my graphic designer who did the 2022 logo start working on a logo for 2024.

Just the other day, I thought to myself, "Oh crap Ouray is already 6 months away." Let's see if I can make it in the Jeep this year!

Right! Every year it sneaks up on me. Hoping to have my Wagoneer ready this year and possibly the honcho.

As many already know we lost Tad this year. We are working on a special shirt for him with the proceeds going towards a brick for Tad.

Thank you.

Woohoo!

We are also doing a standalone T-shirt for Tad but the graphic designer won’t have it ready until the end of the month. Stay tuned
