A little about me and why I love being an AJE Board Member

What I love the most about AJE is the camaraderie. Someone is always willing to help you work on your Jeep, spot you on the trail, give you a beer by the campfire, let you borrow a tool, etc.  The club is a great way to meet new people, learn more about your Jeep, improve your wheeling skills, and have a great time outdoors in the hill country and beyond.
