Good Morning Campers!

Relic Run 2026 - A GROOVY Time in The Swell

Dates: October 1-4 (traditional Relic Run times from Thursday to Sunday morning) Itinerary: This will be a ‘base camp’ style year

Thursday October 1st

Arrive at camp at leisure. Meet and greet, get to know each other. Maybe a run up the mountain for the view, and maybe the sunset. This will be a casual day.

Friday October 2nd

Hoping to get us an appointment at O'ville in Cleveland. I would like to start our day there. Owen has set up an amazing collection of pioneer cabins from Emery County. He has so much knowledge and passion for the area, I think everyone will truly enjoy the experience. From there, we will visit a couple of pioneer cemeteries then head to the Wedge Overlook then down Buckhorn Wash where we'll visit some cool sites. Then back to camp.

Saturday October 3rd

Head to Fuller Bottom and ford the river for an amazing loop run with stunning scenery. Then back to camp.

Sunday October 4th

leisurely morning at camp, hugs and goodbyes...time for everyone to head home.

Other notes...
We will have the Red Ryder BB gun shoot out. I would really like to do a Dutch oven potluck but, we may be under fire restrictions which will mean no camp fires or charcoal.

Fun things at camp....bring your lawn darts, horse shoes, etc. Saturday is my birthday, so, we will be having a proper party with hats and cake!

There will be homework...do your research and bring a poster board with fun facts from the year of your vehicle, i.e. price of gas, current events, TV show, best movie, etc. Once I see who's registered and the years of the vehicles, I will do a mixed tape with the top songs from those years. Also, in the homework department, research the most popular food items from your vehicle's year for Saturday night's potluck.

In sticking with pre-1989 tradition, the main form of vehicle communications will be via CB radio!! I know, I know…the quality is scratchy and the range is limited, but hey, this is Relic Run and there is enough heads up to allow folks to get one installed and tuned. We are trying to return Relic Run to its core principles and this is an easy way to start.
