FJR1300 Eastern Owners Meet (EOM) 2024 (RAMBLE).
The 2024 FJR1300 Eastern Owners Meet (aka "EOM") event will be a “Ramble” style event much like the “non-event” held in 2020 – aka a “show up and ride” event. Get out and enjoy the Western North Carolina Blue Ridge Mountains during the day and socialize in the evening telling tall tales and kicking tires! The Clarion property includes an onsite restaurant (Catrina’s Cantina) offering a traditional Mexican menu.
This means there will be no registration, no event shirts, no event banquet, no swag, etc. This is a Ramble - show up, ride, socialize. There were too many obstacles that I was unable to overcome with the Maggie Valley location - between the challenges with communication with hotel management, their front desk staff who still cannot find the room block caller to caller and non-responsiveness from any catering company / vendor in the area, it was not meant to be this year...
For those who do still migrate to Maggie Valley, I hope the weather if fine, we know the roads are excellent, and enjoy the comrodre that this extended family has grown into. Be safe and enjoy! -Wayne
