As a club (albeit internet) working with the off-road community at-large to preserve (and expand) our recreation areas, I feel that scheduling our January event to coincide with the in-place Friends of Johnson Valley event on January 17 to be the 'right' thing to do....
So, as I communicate with the other staff members (and those familiar with the Johnson Valley area) I'll update this post with the particulars.
DETAILS!
We are camping out on Means Dry Lake on the east side. From the IE it takes roughly 1.5 hours to get there. Means Dry Lake is off Boone Road GPS Coordinates for Means Dry Lake: 34.412944° -116.510944. Look for the SoCal TTORA Banner - We'll be located after the bridge....
Driver meeting 9:00a at the dry lake
CB Channel 14
And don't forget to bring
FIREWOOD
No pallets, or wood with nails/screws in it - not my rules

I do ask everyone thinking of going to read this thread
8th fojv meeting 1/17/09 means dry lake johnson valley
Johnson Valley offers something for everyone, it's not just the Hammers, but for you rock crawlers amongst us, It doesn't get much better than this
Last years Johnson Valley run had a great turnout and I expect nothing less this year.
So get out your calendars/date books and set aside the 17th to support the efforts to save Johnson Valley - not to mention getting your junk out in the dirt.
We've seeing quite a few new members joining up and I hope to see everyone out there...
