The 3rd annual Eureka Springs Jeep Jam, sponsored by McLarty Daniel, was nothing short of phenomenal. From September 14th to 17th, the Jeep community gathered in Northwest Arkansas for food, fun, and off-road adventures. Read on for a quick recap of this unforgettable weekend!
This year’s event kicked off with trail rides through the picturesque Eureka Springs. On Thursday, Justin’s Exhausted Auto & Off-Road Repair led the way through gravel backroads and beautiful wooded scenery. Friday’s excursion, led by Backroads Mafia Merch, culminated in a mouthwatering reception at The Rockin’ Pig restaurant. Seeing so many unique and capable Jeeps in action was an absolute delight.

The weekend reached its peak on Saturday and Sunday, with more than 650 Jeeps converging for a massive celebration. The event grounds were buzzing with food trucks, sponsor tents, games, and prizes — collectible Eureka Springs Jeep Jam rubber ducks were even distributed to attendees! There was also a two-hour-long parade that celebrated the shared history, creativity, camaraderie, and enthusiasm of Jeep owners.
As if that wasn’t enough, awards were distributed in a wide variety of categories, including Best Modern Jeep, Largest Jeep Group, Best Extreme Modified Jeep, Best Vintage Jeep, Best Interior, Most Patriotic, Best Gladiator, Most Ducks, and more. Choosing these winners was not an easy decision, as there were a plethora of next-level themes and modifications.
What makes this event even more special is that it’s not just about celebrating Jeep culture; it’s about giving back. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the event were dedicated to supporting Peterson Outdoors Ministries, a non-profit based in Joplin, Missouri. This organization provides outdoor recreational therapy for injured and recovering veterans, as well as youth and adults with disabilities or serious illnesses.
The 2023 Eureka Springs Jeep Jam managed to raise over $51,000 for Peterson Outdoors Ministries, a testament to the generosity and support of the Jeep community. A heartfelt thank you goes out to the sponsors, volunteers, committee members, and Jeepers who came together to make this event such a resounding success.
