Another excellent Willys Picnic!! There were 73 registered vehicles plus a bunch of For Sale Jeeps too. In the modern Jeep show field were 20 or more vehicles. There had to be at least a hundred show vehicles total during the day. We had a lot of vendors in the swap meet area this year. The weather was great, sunny with a slight breeze! Thanks to everyone for bringing vehicles and swap meet items. Also for supporting the WK&S Railroad https://kemptontrain.com/ by riding the train and purchasing food at the concession stand. The event would not be possible without their support. Please support our other sponsors, Walck's 4WD, The Jeepsterman, JB Garage, Storks Plows, Off Road Consulting, Quadratec, eWillys, Kaiser Willys Auto Supply and the Windyhill Family and crew. See ya next year at the largest North East Willys event.

Great picnic! Big thanks to the King family, W, K&S RR all of the other organizers and sponsors. I won the " slowest in show" and received a nice gift certificate for KW presented by Seth Hensler. A fitting send off for Carl Walck and family who have supported our hobby all these years. He generously donated a pile of shirts. They are collectibles now!
