We are planning a trip to Land Between the Lakes (LBL or Turkey Bay) in Northwest Tennessee / Southwestern Kentucky on TRS ( www.therangerstation.com ). I figured I would post this here as well in case some people from G-E wanted to attend as well.

Date:
May 8-10, 2009

Here is the website address to the facility:
http://www.lbl.org/OHVTrails.html

Here is a map of the ORV trails:

Here is the website address to the camping:
http://www.lbl.org/CAMPTurkeyBay.html


Food:
- Each attendant will be responsible for their own food and drinks.
- There is ice available to purchase at the lodge where you buy your ORV pass.


Camping:
- Each attendant will be responsible for their own camping. A 3 day camping permit is required and cost $5 per person.
- You can rent camping equipment here:
http://www.lbl.org/RatesAndHours.html


ORV Permit:
- Each vehicle MUST have a 1-3 day ORV sticker to be on the ORV park. To get the permit you must have THIS waiver with you at the time of registration.


ORV rules and regulations:
- http://www.lbl.org/08OHVRules-Regs.pdf
- Please print them, read them, and sign a copy to bring with you. I want people to know the rules when they come on the ORV park (mjonesjr's request).

Vehicle Requirements:
- Front and Rear tow points
- Tow strap
- CB radio (not required, but EXTREMELY helpful if you are stuck since cell service probably isn't good there)

2. railman

Members who are probable:
1. wisekise

For those who would like to go but your rig is not trail ready, feel free to bring your 4 wheelers. If you don't have a 4 wheeler and still want to attend, get with a member who is going as he/she may have an open seat or two.

Members who have an empty seat:
1. mjonesjr = 2 passenger seats available

Have a good time.

Are you joining the military? Just wondering cause it says your army bound.

Yea, I am trying to get approved for the WOFT program right now. I took the MEPS physical last Saturday. I took the AFAST test last month and scored a 128 on it.
 






I see well i am at Ft. Campbell which is about 45 min from lbl and if you need anything why you are here dont be afraid to holler.
 






What is your MOS?
 






21E20/Construction Equipment operator. I have been in the army for 7 going on 8 years and have been at Campbell for 6 of it.
 






That is what my recruiters MOS is/was before he started recruiting.

I would love to be stationed at Ft. Campbell or Ft. Knox. I know if I get accepted to the WOFT, I will spend about 2 years at Ft. Rucker.
 






Yeah then it will be a walk in the park to get Campbell. Home of the helicopter.
 






Yea, if I get to fly what I want (UH-60) it will be.
