Jeep Beach 2022 brought over 225,000 people to Daytona Beach with over 25,000 Jeeps. Over 10,000 Jeeps were at the main event in the Daytona International Speedway with over 60,000 spectators coming through during the weekend. Always true to its roots, Jeep Beach says if it doesn't say Jeep, it doesn't come in!
Some of the things that make Jeep Beach so special are that it is run entirely by a team of volunteers and all the proceeds go to local charities in Volusia and Flagler counties. The 350 participating volunteers logged over 6,500 hours in 2022. The 2022 Jeep Beach event raised an astonishing $650,000, taking the total raised since inception in 2012 to a whopping $3,400,000! All funds raised benefit amazing charities such as The Boys and Girls Clubs of Volusia and Flagler Counties, Childhood Cancer Foundation, The Race To Stop Suicide, Oceans of Hope Foundation, Food Brings Hope, Mission 22, and more.
There are so many activities available to visitors and participants it is almost impossible to knock them all out in one week and that's part of the reason Jeep Beach sees so many returning visitors annually. There's a scavenger hunt that will take you through the backroads and scenic byways to hidden gems in the community, official parties, and numerous vendor parties during the week at various venues across the city and, of course, just hanging out with thousands of other Jeepers on the World's Most Famous Beach.

This fourdoor Ford foreshadowed late-model Broncos
Ddecades ahead of the '20 four-door Bronco, and even preceding the Ford Explorer and Excursion, came an SUV that could have passed for OEM and was built to answer the call for a three-row people-haulin' off-roader.
JEEP OR BLAZER BUILDING
I was hoping to pick your brain as to a couple of different builds. I have a '19 Jeep Wrangler JL and a '74 Chevy Blazer. I'm a little baffled as to what to focus on. The '74 full convertible Blazer is my dream vehicle. She's been a long build and now I am thinking of focusing my energy on my wife's '19 Jeep JL. I recently joined a Jeep club and have been going off-road with a few guys. I'm shopping around for lift kits. Would you suggest that my time be spent and focused on the Blazer or enjoy the Jeep? I really can't do both.
