Texas Rovers SCARR 2008 - The 5th Annual South Central Area Rover Rally
April 17th - 20th, 2008, Barnwell mountain Recreational Area, Gilmer, TX
Celebrating 60 years of Land Rover
This year, Texas Rovers has reserved Barnwell for 4 days (April 17th-20) exclusively for SCARR 2008, and the park will be closed to the General Public. In doing this we have been able to extend the rally from 3 days to 4 days. Also, we have rolled ALL of the fees - SCARR + Barnwell Mountain Daily Use and Camping Fees into one fee. You will NOT have to pay any other fees when you reach the rally!
For the Vehicle & Driver: ($80 Texas Rover’s Member/$95 Non-Members) this fee covers the park rental, t-shirts, and three meals.
Passenger fee: ($25) covers the three meals and t-shirt for the vehicle passenger.
Children under 12 are free and their meals are covered by donated funds, but T-shirts are $15 extra for the under 12 crowd.
Early registration ends March 14th. All registrations after March 15th incur a $35 Late Registration Fee.

5. If you are planning on bringing an RV or towing a trailer and plan on camping at Camp Mabey, please clearly indicate this when registering. You will be contacted and offered an alternative route to the camp. Since all the campsites will be available to attendees this will NOT apply if you plan to use the site near the pavilion with electrical hookups or another campsite. If you plan on using another campsite on the property, please be respectful of the site and try to leave it cleaner than you found it.
6. Guided trail runs (with trail leaders and spotter) of groups ranging from novice to advanced experience, will be offered for those that would like to join them. If you already are with a group of friends, you're welcome to explore the park at your own pace.
7. Unregistered attendees will be charged $50 per day + passenger fee and cannot be guaranteed meals or an event T-Shirt.
