Joe Zumwalt
Club Founder/President
oe founded So Cal Jeep Junkies (SCJJ) in October 2022 after spending time in a few Jeep clubs that didn’t quite fit. Frustrated by cliques, unnecessary drama, and a lack of consistent trail runs, he knew something had to change. So, he decided to create SCJJ with a clear vision built on three core principles. First and foremost, it would be a no-drama zone—no backbiting, no putting others down, and no cliques. Second, the club would offer 2-3 trail runs every month, ensuring members had plenty of opportunities to hit the trails together. Lastly, SCJJ would be inclusive, welcoming Jeepers of all experience levels, from those brand-new to off-roading to seasoned rock crawlers
