**Jeep Talk Show Interview with Dottie from Jeep Babes Enthusiast Club Michigan – 2026 Show & Shine Charity Event** hi-de-ho boys and girls, it's time for another Jeep Talk Show! We're joined again by Dottie, dedicated community leader and outdoor enthusiast from Michigan, where she helps drive the Jeep Babes Enthusiast Club. With a passion for the off-road lifestyle and a heart for service, she turns trail rides and a love of Jeeps into powerful movements for good—coordinating large-scale charity fundraisers while enjoying the trails. Dottie was last on the show August 22, 2025. Catch that earlier interview for more background. This time we dig into the upcoming 2026 Show & Shine, the club's growth (around 4,700 members in the Michigan chapter with a wider network), inclusivity for all Jeeps (and beyond), raffles, vendors, family-friendly vibes, and plenty of laughs—including Dottie's unique last name (Drips), death wobble jokes, skid plate talk, ArmorLite floors, and real talk about asking for help and community. Chris from the Jeep Talk Show is MCing the event again. Look for his gray Gladiator (on 35s with a 2" lift) and give him a hard time about those Jeep Talk Show stickers! **Event Details** 2026 Show & Shine – Charity Event for HAVEN Saturday, September 26, 2026 Birch Run Speedway, 10945 Dixie Hwy, Birch Run, MI (right off I-75) Starts ~11 AM Vehicle Show & Shine entry: $25 donation (includes passengers) General admission: $5 (kids 12 & under free) 100% of proceeds go to HAVEN (supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence) Expect vendors, raffles (including nice prizes and a vacation package), show & shine awards, food/drinks, family-friendly activities, and good facilities.
