Benefit Run 2006

Route File .ANR Route File .SAF

Vital Information:

When: Jan 6-8, 2006
Where: NJ->PA->NY->CT
Who: Anyone who loves to drive
What: 1000+ miles of roads, touring the entire Tri-state area.  This is a fun and friendly drive and bonding with other Subaru Enthusiasts throughout the Tri-state Area.  We've been doing this Annual run for 5 years straight and this year should prove to be no different.  Bring your friends, bring your relatives, bring your enthusiasm, and most importantly, BRING YOUR SENSE OF HUMOR!  Over the 3 days the group will cover backroads, traffic, and no doubt have some trying circumstances, but as a group we'll get through it all! 

This year we are going back to the original format!  It will truly be 48hrs.  Starting Friday night in NJ and ending at the Palisades Mall in Nyack, NY Sunday night!  The pace will be hectic as we will be covering a lot of ground in a short time.

Fund Raising:
We are going to be doing a Drive-a-Thon for Charity.  You get people to sponsor you $X per mile that will be donated to American Cancer Society. This year we will be donating the money in the name of a nasioc.com member who recently passed on at an early 27 years old, his name is Ed Helbling. Sponsor Forms
HERE. So this not only will be a fun drive, but it will also raise money for a good cause.  Please try to get as many sponsors as you can.

MY CELL PHONE NUMBER IS 917-596-3354 call us anytime during the trip to verify info etc. etc.

Items to Bring with you!
  Spare tire, properly inflated (check PSI)
  CB, even "borrow" a hand held one from Radio Shack for the weekend. This is essential, without it the trip will have less of a meaning for yah.
    Co-driver/Co-pilot  It's going to be a long drive, if you can bring a co-pilot or a co-driver that would be great.
    Sleeping Bag.  May need it @ Motels if we pack in a bunch of people.  Also it's a good idea whenever doing winter driving to have one in case you are stuck on the side of the road overnight.
  EZ PASS-  This is essential, last year we got fouled up a few times going through toll booths.

Other Info:

This year's trip will be a blast as always.  We've shortened it slightly to give us a more leisurely pace and able to spend more time in each city we visit.  Other years due to snow and other items that pop up we were constantly battling the clock, this schedule allows for more sleep and more fun!
