BIG EVENT November 14th, 2009

All i can say is WOW. This weekend went great. I dont even know where to start... 5 dumpsters overflowing with trash, 1 dumpster overflowing with scrap metal, and 3 trailer loads, 2 stake bed truck loads of tires to Americans tire company throughout victorville was insane. And over 300 Volunteers out in full force.

A Big thanks to all the sponsors. Without such great companies in our sport there is no way we could have put on such a great event. With such great prizes. We had boxes full of shirts, DVDs, and gear to raffle off, and some of the best parts in the industry as well. links, bump stops, full floater housings, LED light bars. Man i wish i could of had all those parts. So thanks to all of our sponsors: Below

I have to say a big special Thanks to all my friends who helped out all day long and didnt even get to enter the raffle. Thanks to, AJ, Christina, Pahl, Kamber, Gary, Allison, Trevor, Josb ,Kevin, Steve, April, Ray, John with BLM and my GF Lisa, amber for the flyers and shirt designs, and Elliot for hooking up the americas tire for the disposal of all the tires.

And then least but not last everyone from DR who are known as the younger generation "1450" racers and punk kids who showed up in full force and ready to do work. Really i cant thank you guys enough. Without your support there would be no Clean-Dezert, no bitchen raffles, no clean-ups and doing positive things for our sport.and pics that were taken. These should be up on our site shortly.http://www.flickr.com/photos/clean-dezert

4/18/09 Earth Day Clean-up OCOTILLO WELLS

Clean-dezert just got back from attending this event. What a great time we had out there. They had breakfast waiting for us when we showed up to sign in. We got our stuff and headed out. We were able to fill 2 truck beds full of trash... and by trash i mean cans, bottles, wrapers, and paper towels. This is nothing like barstow where you can grab washing machines... This is down and dirty with trash bags. I feel like we made a pretty good dent in the park. At noon they provided a wonderful lunch with burgers, hot dogs, chips and nice cold refereshments. The raffle was another highlight of the day, with tons of great prizes to be won by all. Cant ask for a better weekend in the desert, Friends, cleaning, food and a feeling of accomplishment.

I want to Thank my friends Jeff, Amber, Mikey, Kevin and JosB for taking the time to come out and help. Without you guys clean-dezert could not go on. So thank you.

And also a huge thanks goes out to Doug from http://www.drive-racing.com/ for taking time out of his busy schedule and doing his part. This really shows his dedication to the offroad industry, his love for the desert, and how great of a person he is. If you are not familiar with DRIVE RACING please go out and support his series.

I hope to see everyone at the Meeting tonight. This is very important to us at Clean-Dezert to keep johnson valley open. Please let your presents be known there.

Also Clean-Dezert will be at the Plaster City race for new years. Please stop by pick up some shirts and stickers and support keeping the deserts open and clean.

Johnon Valley Meetings

Due to the low turn outs during the mini clean-ups. Clean dezert has decided to focus our energy in a new direction. We would like to ask everyone to schedule their time to try and make one of the following meetings regarding the Johnson Valley land closures. We all need to show our support for the land. Many of us being racers would be devistated if they closed all of Johnson Valley. This is exactly what they are proposing to do. We would no longer have camp rock road, or bessimer mine race courses open. The same courses that we use for our beloved MDR night race. So please find a meeting you can attend and be there to do your part.

We will also be trying to set up carpools from OC, IE and possibly SD for anyone who is interested.

The Meetings will be as folllows:
1. Wed. December 3, 2009, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Twentynine Palms, CA;
Location: Twentynine Palms Junior High School, Hay's Gym,
5798 Utah Trail, Twentynine Palms, CA;

2. Thurs. December 4, 2009, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Victorville, CA;
Location: Hilton Garden Inn Victorville,
12603 Mariposa Road, Victorville, CA;

3. Fri. December 5, 2009, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m., Ontario, CA.
Location: Convention Center, 2000 E. Convention Center Way, Ontario, CA.

Sorry if this is an inconvience for anyone. However this is something we strongly believe in trying to keep open. While cleaning the desert is a great way to do our part. We feel this is something that NEEDS to be done. Please show up and speak your mind.

Hope everyone had a Happy Halloween. I just wanted to thank Safari Gard with this picture of our Troops in Iraq supporting our Clean-Dezert and having some fun for Halloween. Keep up the good work.
