The Creep
Jeep Creep Portion of Full Day Tickets
Every year as part of our Jeep Fest we have a Jeep Creep. This comes with the Full Day Tickets Only. The purpose of the Creep is to see the Frederick County, MD countryside and this year we have a great route! We will be taking you through and over several Historic Bridges and stopping at some pretty cool places along the way. Below are the various stops (not in this order). Join us for the Creep by purchasing one of the Full Day passes!
Thurmont Community Park
The Thurmont Community Park is the site of many large events throughout the year including Colorfest, Halloween in the Park, movie nights, and summer park programs.
Happy Cow Creamery
At Happy Cow Creamery they offer delicious Soft Served Ice Cream Treats produced from their very own Dairy Cattle. The Creamery offers a Walk-Up Window and Outdoor Seating as well. There are outdoor activities for the children and great views of livestock can be enjoyed at the outdoor seating area!
Rosie Cheeks Distillery
A family owned distillery located in Walkersville, MD serving premium moonshine!

COOLERS, CHAIRS, and POP UP TENTS
We encourage you to bring a cooler with snacks, sodas, water, for the Creep only.
Once you arrive at Fest, a variety of food trucks will be provided, so bringing in outside food, while not prohibited, is highly discouraged.
Due to the number of patrons for the event, BYO portable chairs is encouraged.
Due to space limitations, pop up tents are NOT allowed.
PETS
Pets are fine, but they must be leashed at all times and you must clean up after your animal. It’s just gross if you don’t.
ATTIRE
At a few of the stops we encourage you to get out and explore, so be sure to wear appropriate footwear.
CASH
There will be opportunity to purchase raffle tickets, 50/50 tickets, other food, t-shirts, etc. so we encourage you to bring cash as there isn’t an ATM on site.
That being said, we do have the ability to take credit cards, Paypal or Venmo at some of the sites. But cash is always nice.
THE MISSION
Laura Johnson and Heather Wilhelm have been working together for over 10 years to raise money for St. Jude Children's Hospital. We both started our journey with St. Jude through Team WFRE - a group of people raising money for St Jude through the local radio station - WFRE.
Many people have asked us over the years - WHY? Why St. Jude? For Laura it was simple - she has three beautiful and healthy children. She feels blessed, and she believes that she has a responsibility to help those who are not as fortunate. The idea of having a child battling a debilitating disease and fighting for their life is unbearable.
Heather's story is similar - she also has two beautiful and healthy children. As a middle school science teacher, though, Heather had a student (Meghan) that battled leukemia for a year. Unfortunately, Meghan lost her battle, but not without a fight.
The mission of St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital is to advance cures, and means of prevention, for pediatric catastrophic diseases through research and treatment.
Founder and entertainer Danny Thomas opened the doors to St. Jude in 1962 with the dream that “no child should die in the dawn of life." Unlike any other hospital, the majority of their funding comes from individual contributions. And thanks to generous donors, families never receive a bill from St. Jude.
