Ssssshhhhhhhh. It's a secret.

If they pick another Pope without consulting me, I'm not going to any more conclaves.

Does the pope sh*t in the woods?

[Stormer]

Maybe at this conclave he would....

[ukoffroad]

I have a feeling I know. Sounds like a proxy.

This better not be code for a John Cougar Mellencamp concert or I'm going to be pissed. Or is it just John Mellencamp now?

Yes. How do you get a diner in a campsite?

When it is organized properly, everything is possible :-)

As we are sure many of you have heard there is a new event coming to the East Coast this fall. Well, we are ready to put aside all speculations and bury the rumors with nothing but the cold hard truth. Everything you’ve heard is true.
Getting nothing but rave reviews, The Cove offers a wide variety of amenities that we found would be fitting for our first annual event. With plenty of room for camping, the Cove also has on-site Bathhouses with hot showers. They also offer electric sites for those who tow their own campsite behind them. If trailers or tents aren’t your style, then one of their cabins sounds like it would be a good fit you, but call well in advance as they are limited.

With miles of charted trails, the Cove offers a variety of options ranging from greenlaning your stock truck to the most difficult of terrain meant for the experienced driver with an equally capable truck.

Location:

980 Cove Rd
Gore, VA 22637

From Washington DC: 1hr 20min
From NYC: 5hr 14min
From Boston: 9hr 14min
From Chicago: 10hr 37min
From Los Angeles: 39hr 11min
From Fairbanks, Alaska: 72hr 1min
From Solihull, West Midlands, UK: 88hr 29min

Dates:
September 20 – 23 2012

I've been to the Cove before, it has some awesome trails!

[rijosho]

Remember when people would complain that ROAV was not transparent enough? I could only imagine the complaints they'd get if they started releasing information on events in this manner! haha

Based on the way Conclave has done this so far, I'd assume the "map" for this event will just be words like, "To the brook you shall go. When you come to the T in the road, turn ... wanna know more?"

[Rugbier]

Your map Josh will read exactly like this

"To the brook you shall go. When you come to the T in the road, turn ... wanna know more? check your oil first so you make it " LMAO

finally the East Coast is getting an Awesome event desired by many for years

[MC22958]

What is this super fantastic event going to cost us? I would expect thousands of dollars but I am sure you will give the D90 crowd a special discount. Will we have the smoke thing? Who do we get to vote for? OH and the Pope has a bucket carrier for when he goes in the woods..

[1971Series88]

How much money do you want Dan Chapman to make? = how much it will cost.

[Conclave]

We know you have many questions about the Conclave and today you will finally get those answers.
First it is time to let the pontifical smoke clear, remove the cloak of secrecy and reveal the people that have been working hard to make the Conclave one of the best Land Rover only events in America.
In alphabetical order
Dan Chapman Conclave
Mark Garrenton ROAV
Rick Newman ROAV
Justin Monnin Conclave
Gustavo Pagni Conclave
Dan Rao ROAV
Ben Saunders ROAV
David Short ROAV
Ed Tatton NELRC
Erik Torno Conclave
Mike VanCuren ROAV

Now to answer the next question on everybody's mind
Price
The 4-day event will be $170
Breakdown
Event Registration $80.00
The Cove Campground will collect a $45.00 flat fee for each trail vehicle plus $15.00 per night for camping per person.
An example of total cost.
A single person arriving on Thursday and departing on Sunday will pay a total of $80.00 + $45.00 + ($15x3) which totals $170.00.
You will only be charged the camping fee for the nights you stay so those arriving later will pay less for camping. This will be a 4-day, 3 night event, starting on Thursday September 20th
Children under 2 are free.
Kid’s 2-11 $7

With ROAV combining the Mid Atlantic Rover Rally “MAR” to the Conclave and NELRC Convoy for heroes finishing at the Cove this will surely be the do not miss event of the year.

Will you be there?

[ron]

Interesting this is penciled in

[1971Series88]

So Chapman is running MAR this year?????

Wonder what the heck is going on??

[slorocco]

Guess you'll have to show up and find out. :)

[rijosho]

I just looked up the dates on my calendar and I have to attend a friend's wedding that Saturday up here, so sadly I will not be able to make it to ConMAR or ConclaMAR or MARclave or whatever this year. :(

[130Tdi]

Good group putting it together and a great venue. Looking forward to it.

[1971Series88]
