August mud and crawl a go

June 23, 2013

In spite of a number of restrictions imposed on his one-time special event that initially appeared to have made it impossible, DelRey Romero has decided to go forward and host the North Idaho Mud and Crawl August 10-11 at 3096 Highland Flats Road in Naples.

While the event can only run from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., no more than 1,500 people can be in attendance and and no alcohol is allowed, Romero believes that the course will be attractive and fun enough to attract mudbog aficionados from around the region.

There'll be a 100-foot mud pit, a half-mile 4x4 trail littered with boulders, logs and other obstacles to provide both challenge and adventure.

The event offers fun for the entire family, with an on-going barbecue, a 4x4 parts rafle, and the Dash for Cash, a footrace through the pit at the end of both days with winners pocketing $50.

Admission for the entire weekend is $20 for everyone 14 and older, kids 13 and under get in free and active military, police and teachers get a 25-percent discount with ID. Romero will donate 15-percent of the gate to Bonners Ferry High School.

There's free parking and camping and more, and you can learn more on their Facebook page, available here.
