The CDJW Family
CDJW's leadership is packed with people that enjoy other people! Now that you're a member, we want you to get to know the team that helps make CDJW run. Below are a list of the board, leadership team, and our founders. Next time you're at a meeting and see one of us - please stop and say hi so we can get you introduced to other members of the club. At CDJW there is only one "CLIQUE" and you're in it.
THE
BOARD
President : Michael Calimari
I started as a general member (and first time Jeep owner,) in 2016. It did not take long to fall in love with off roading and being around the people of CDJW and the off roading community. I became an active member in the off-road side of the organization by working with the Off-Road Team Leader (TLO) to organize events and foster other club relations. After 2 years of being a part of the off-road team, my interest grew to take on another challenge. I stepped up to Vice President in 2019 and really enjoyed the challenge. Within one year of being Vice President an opportunity arose to be the President. Becoming the first President, since a founder held the position, was a heavy decision. My goal is to continue to grow the club within the off-road community while remaining true to our core goals of being family oriented and all skill and interest level inclusive.
Vice President : Andrew "Droni" Holland
He first started Jeeping in 2012 and found CDJW on Google. He went to his first off-road event with CDJW and was hooked. He met some great people and admired the way the club was handled. Through the years he took on more and more interest to be a part of the leadership team and took on some minor safety roles. He then became a Deputy Sergeant in Arms in 2019 and learned a lot. Then the opportunity to become Vice President came along
at just the right time this year and he took on the challenge.
President : Jay Anderson
Jason Anderson is one of the original founders of CDJW. Starting the club in 2012 with Keith, Jason helped shape the club into what it is today. A fun and vibrant community of Jeep enthusiasts with a drive for wheeling and giving back to the community. It was important to Jason that the clubs one and only qualifier for membership be that you owned a Jeep Wrangler. This would allow the club to foster strong relationships surrounding the hobby of "Jeeping". Mall crawlers to buggies, he wanted all to feel welcomed in to form the tight and friendly group we have today. Later during the club’s growth, Jason worked diligently to obtain 501c3 (nonprofit) status for the club, opening opportunities to give back to the local community more effectively and join other nonprofit centric Jeep organizations.
Vice President : Ryan V
As a long time CDJW member and off-road enthusiast, Ryan has been an awesome member of the club. Starting out as TLO Ryan helped increase the amount of events the club was having yearly and add a friendly smile to any event he attended. As VP Ryan is continuing to do so. Welcome to the team Ryan!
Sergeant at Arms : Adam Radlowski
As a 10+ year member of the club, Adam brings a great understanding of the quality and family nature of our events and nature of the club. Adam helps keep the ship afloat, handle any issues that might arise, and fine tune our bylaws each year. Thanks Adam!
Secretary Treasurer : Christina Agans
Christina has been our rockstar social deputy for a few years and is now the Secretary Treasurer. She loves being involved and jumping in when ever possible. She’s always up for a great social event, and is now keeping an eye on the books for us.
THE
Leadership Team
Deputy TLS : Michah Davis
Michah has always had a love of Jeeps, dogs, and the outdoors. The first vehicle she ever bought was a ’97 TJ back in 2005. Her Dad taught her how to drive stick shift on it in the back woods of her family’s property. It’s her favorite of all the Jeeps she’s owned and she still has it. Michah found CDJW at a benefit event for dogs. Since joining she’s made new friendships while off-roading, camping, playing board games, and learning more and more about Jeeps with other club members.

Founder : Keith Weber
Keith and Jay were co-workers, and both had Jeeps. They both came to the realization that they should start a club. Before they knew it, they had a website and their first meet up planned. From then on Keith went through many Jeeps until finally landing on a JL Rubicon that loves mud holes. Keith is always a ball of laughs but knows when to be serious. He can be seen leading groups and showing us new guys how it’s done. If you can think it up, there is a good chance Keith has already tried it, made it then blew it up.

Always jumping in, leading groups, and showing us the ‘right’ way to do things. He has been a steady force in making the club a better organization.
