hey y'all!

Hey everyone! My name is Mandi and I love jeeps. It started when my dad got a 1990 Wrangler Sport (which i later took over) followed by my 88' Cherokee, 11' Silver JK sport and now my 13' Orange Crush JK sport...

I am 20 years old and live in Abingdon, MD. I am heavily involved in the children's ministry at a small church in Bel Air, MD that my dad Pastors. I nanny on the side but for the most part I work full time in the family business in Aberdeen. My dad encouraged me to check out some local Jeep groups knowing my love for Jeeps and meeting new people. I would like to learn the ropes of off-roading in a group that will be a spiritual influence to me and where I can meet new Christian friends. I am really outgoing! I have always wanted to go off-roading but sadly have not..(just back roads, puddles, etc. but not mud, rocks and trails.) If you'd like to know anything else about me, please ask lol ... i don't really know what else about me to say... Have a great day everyone! :)

Welcome to the club! we're always happy to have new members regardless of experience, we've got a club run coming up on the 17th of November to Rausch creek if you are interested in attending. I'm sure the other members will be along shortly to welcome you to the group

Thank you! :) Yes, I saw about the 17th. I really would like to go! :) I still need to check my schedule, but i'd also like to maybe be a "tag-along" (passenger) since I have NO idea what I'd be doing haha

Welcome!!! We are glad you found us. Our club is focused on faith, family and community service so I think you found the right place. My husband and I also live in Abingdon and attend Mt. Christian Church. We hold a bible study twice a month during the week so let me know if you want more information.

We have people from very diverse backgrounds, ages and wheeling experience. So you will find this club a good place to learn the ropes (and maybe equally as important- what not to do ). We understand that most people use their jeeps as daily drivers and that they are quite expensive. We want you to enjoy your jeeps capability and be able to use it everyday. You only do what you are comfortable with on the trails and if you are not comfortable take the bypass.

I think your first time out to Rausch it would be great to ride along to see what it is all about. You are welcome to ride with my husband and me!

Also, check out our facebook page (Alpha Omega Offroad)- you can see our photos from past events.

Can't wait to meet you!

Thank you so much for the warm welcome! That is super cool that we live so close! I'd love to ride up with y'all to RC if you don't mind Thank you for the invite to the Bible Study also! It sounds like a lot of fun! Of course, I would LOVE more information on that when you have some time I am so excited to meet y'all hopefully soon! I did get a chance to look at your Facebook page and WOW y'all look like you're having a blast! Does everyone here go to Mountain? I cannot wait to meet you also!!!!

Glad you are here! I am Dennis (Orangecrush's aka Samantha) husband. No, not everyone here attends Mountain- many attend different churches. We actually have visited different churches as a club-it is something we enjoy doing.

Looking forward to having you on the 17th and you are more than welcome to ride up with my wife and me. We are also having a club meeting/Thanksgiving/Christmas party on November 3rd around 2 p.m. at one of our members' home in Abingdon. You and your dad or whomever are more than welcome to come out and meet everyone. No need to bring anything. Also, before the meeting we are attending the Luna's House car show in Edgewood (near the Home Depot). Luna's house is a shelter for homeless animals and does great work. The show is help them raise donations. If you can come out great!

Samantha will send you details on the bible study and her cell phone. If you have any questions, just give her a call.

See you soon

Hi there jeepgirl! Nice to have you! I am also JeepGurl (but with a "u", ) I also live in Abingdon just over the train tracks from Sam and Dennis. Can't wait to meet you and join us on the trails!

Welcome to A/O. My family and I are fairly new to the club and we have had a blast doing things with them. There are great people here and we were welcomed with open arms. Can't wait to meet you - hopefully at RC!!

Mudslinger, Hi! Thank you! All of that sounds exciting and I definitely cannot wait! Thank you for the invite! ahhh! exciting!

Jeepgurl, Hello!!! I'm thinking I live WAY closer than I thought to y'all haha I'm quite close to a train tracks as well (when the train goes by, the house shakes lol) I cannot wait to meet you either! I cannot wait to learn all the fun jeep stuff i've been missing out on all these years! Thanks in advance!

ih8pepl73 (btw, the username makes me lol), Hi! thank you for the invite and I can't wait to meet your family! I can already see that I choose a great group!

Wow it does sound like your close, we are off of Bush Rd. (past Cokesbury development), I've probably seen you around. My husband has a forrest green 98 TJ and a 99 XJ. and I have a bright red mazda 3 w/tinted windows and black rims, only one around, so if you've seen it, thats me. I love that car, but I am going to get a wrangler when the purple ones come out on the market (I've already emailed Chrysler about it)

Yes! I live right off Sewell Road! Whoah y'all are close! I just traded in my 11' JK for the 13' JK ... Orange Crush is definitely a color i'm getting use to (but it's my favorite) so you may have seen me... I have seen you around! That is so cool! and yes, purple would be an awesome color!

Welcome to the madness from the West Coast team. We miss seeing everyone there and you have definitely found the right group. You just have to realize that jeep is a addiction and should be dealt with accordingly. Treat it with high doses of friends and trails and it should stay under control.

I have family in AZ and went out there my first time last year. I'll be out there again this June!!! If I could move there, I WOULD!!! :) All I could do while there was just die inside imagining the incredible off-roading. Thanks for the Welcome!

Hi Mandi!!! Welcome! And when you come out to AZ, we'll definitely have to hook up!!! It IS amazing out here!
Like Chris said, we miss everyone back home, but it is heavenly here....weather, wheeling, etc.

You did find the right group! These guys are not only caring, amazing, loving....but fun too! Hope you can make it to an event!

See you in June! heheheeeeee

Thank you so much! I will definitely hook up with you! I need to tell my family out there about y'all also! My cousin has a Rubicon and My Uncle has a Scout... i don't know too much about either, but i know they would LOVE to go out with y'all sometime especially when I'm out there! I'm going to try to make it out to the Bible Study in Nov. since it'll be the only one I can since I teach Discovery with the kids the nights you usually study. Also, I will be at the Luna House event:)

Thanks again for the welcome! :)
