It would be great if every member could write down a little blurb, or a novel about there year so far with Baystate. Favorite run, event, etc. Submit them to the newsletter for the year in review newsletter of the 2019 season. BSJNewsletter@gmail.com

There’s a newsletter?
Seriously though, thank you in advance for your submissions. I appreciate everyone for offering their end-of-the-season reviews. I created a few questions so maybe if you don’t feel comfortable just writing freely, if anyone would like to answer a few of these, I’d put them in Tracks (the Baystate newsletter).

1) Favorite property to wheel (favorite obstacle, trail, moment you made it over an obstacle, and why it’s special to you)
2) something that you learned while out on the trails.
3) fixes/upgrades you’ve done this season. Include any carnage/breaks to your rig
4) next upgrades (realistic, not just Dana 60’s or super duty swaps. Thoughts on why the upgrades. Where do you plan on going with your build)
5) besides from your own jeep, some other BSJ member’s jeep that you think is pretty awesome and why.
6) future events you missed that you’d like to attend, or events you attended that were fun
7) Changes you’d like to see within the club. More non-wheeling events? Social gatherings? Bowling? Go-karts? Any thoughts on how to get more people involved? Would you yourself like to be more involved and how would you want to do that?

Just some questions. Feel free to add your own answers/questions:
Doors on or off when you wheel? AC on or off? Soft top or hard top? Favorite snack out on the trails. Something you’ll never forget every again while on a trail. (Bug spray, for me!)

Include photos!

If you are coming to the BBQ bring your blurbs on paper. A lot easier than typing them out!

Thank you, Marky. Jeez. Apparently these articles just magically appear!

Seriously, I really would appreciate some write ups and at this point, Mark is right— I’d take anything even written in crayons. I’ll take drawing, interpretive dance? Haikus.

Come on. BSJNewsletter@gmail.com

I have 1 “year in review” piece so far.

I think it would be awesome to have a bunch. It can be a sentence or a quote or anything. A picture even. Crayon drawings are still appreciated. I can turn this into a collage of sorts.

The more involvement the better. Active participation seems to be the new BSJ theme, so it would be awesome to get everyone involved in the newsletter and your voices heard. Another great way to end the season.


Thanks in advance!

Lisa - I just emailed you my final Adventures with BEV article for the season. It's a special Beach Edition, with some techniques and tips for driving on sand. And YES, I included a couple topless photos . . . just to make sure the newsletter gets lots of views. :lol:

“Topless photos” would have probably gotten more hits if this wasn't a jeep club. Haha. Thanks, I got the article!

I have a total of three. Who else wants to join in the end-of-year review fun?!! New members and BOD??
