And I know that many organizations have been coming forward
to support the residents in North Georgia,
specifically the city of McCaysville as well.
We've been talking a lot about that.
So let's get into this next story here about the Jeeps
who got together over the weekend to rally for aid.
Right. It was more than 50 Jeeps and I think one or two Broncos.
I'm not really sure how many Broncos. But the L.A.J. Jeepers
and Jeep Girl Mafia Club put together this benefit ride.
And it left on Sunday and then it went over to Springer Mountain
and rode around on the trails up there.
Well, everyone who went on the ride made a donation.
And actually, just before I got on here to talk to you,
one of the co-founders.
reached out to me and told me they had raised almost $3,000
on the ride on Sunday. Now they
put this ride together in like less than 48 hours.
So to have like 50 something vehicles show up and
to donate like $3,000 plus like a truckload of like supplies,
like diapers and personal hygiene
products and all that kind of stuff.
I mean, that's, that's pretty good.
She also told me, Amberlee,
she also told me that they are going to have another ride.
this weekend. And that ride was already kind of planned,
but they are going to turn it into
another benefit ride. And they will be collecting both cash
and like donations during that ride.
And they will, you know,
make a second drop to an organization up there in McKaysville
after that ride is completed.
So I'll try to stay on top of that. When I get information
about that ride, I'll put that out on our website.
But a lot of people, there's a lot
A lot of people who drive Jeeps.
Yes. Yeah, absolutely.
So like everybody has been like clicking on this story and like a lot
of people have reached out
and asked if there was going to be another ride. So yes, there's
going to be another ride. So just keep an eye on the website
or find L.A.J. Jeepers on Facebook or
Jeep Girl Mafia and they will post information there.
That's pretty nice to see this Jeep group coming together
for the residents of North Georgia.
I have a cousin who's involved in a Jeep group as well.
A lot of people across Georgia drive Jeeps
and they do similar things.
She's not in this area, but they do similar things. So good to see
this happening and just all the help in general
that's going out to those residents there.
Very nice. Yep, definitely.
