In addition to the vendors and Jeeps and more Jeeps, enjoy the Show and Shine competition Saturday, June 11.

WNC Jeepers, a community of Jeepers encompassing Western North Carolina, is the is host club for JeepFest.

“With the creation of WNC JeepFest, we’ve been able to expand the network between Jeepers and local businesses/resources, while allowing our club to grow and help raise funds for community needs,” said Megan Johnson, president of WNC Jeepers.
