If any one would like to join me for this, I would appreciate the company. Myself and a few others from SFWDA will be attending. This is about land use in our own back yard. As always strength and numbers speaks loudly. The verbiage "temporary closures"always worries me

Sorry, I got a new phone and had not logged in yet. All I know is there are very tight lips about what's going on as far as the purchase. The people involved do not want any information let out. But SFWDA has been in contact. Let's all keep our fingers crossed when the dust settles it's what...

Excluding Children bellow a certain age, everyone has to pay. Billstoy here's where you get your future generations in with free access. This includes board members, Presidents, Volunteers (Also Volunteers are not paid). There are many reasons for this. One is because the money all goes to fight...

SFWDA has also done a video series covering some of these topics. I personally take people out on the trails all the time. I have Friends that do the same. I have taken professors from the University of Tennessee for a recreation thesis. I took out a Forester the other week that has never been...

So One thing SFWDA is offering is tread lightly training. We have had a few clubs take advantage of this, most of them in South Carolina. SFWDA has paid for a tread lightly trainer to come in and teach a class on Tread lightly principles. There are a limited number of spots and sign ups fill up...

I will say that your idea's of trail clean ups after an event is one of the best Ideas I have heard. I am going to bring a big hammer and beat this into peoples head. I have already been doing a little brain storming with our tread lightly guy. Its always easy to hear stuff from someone that...

I am more than happy to look into this more, Can you IM me with some contact information so I can get a conversation going? I will be in Chattanooga in a few weeks and can sit down and do dinner with someone. I'm not promising I can save the world, but I hope I can get some support for the fight.

I remember this, we talked with...Kristy? The lady who managed the lease property over the railroad tracks. The told us they did not want our help. We also contacted Aetna nation with the same results. I was at the fund raiser ride and the "Final Ride" of Horse Power Hill before there was...

No that's a typo, That has been since day one over many years. Jeffrey Dozer, made a verbal correction on this. NO we don't own the land the land is owned by the county. The reason we have a major interest is that we need to set precedence in the state of Kentucky on historic roads and public...

See if this helps, Little more Friendly but not perfect.

No, good Questions! I always want to know where amounts of money are going and why. If I don't know I assume they are spending it on Hookers and Blow. We can only spend as much as we bring in, we have no credit. We use a Grant program to help manage this. The max a Grant can be done for is...

You make a great point about trail clean up after the event, In fact that never crossed my mind I am going to send a message about that right now. I have done some work before an event and I know local clubs that have pitched in a bit. I know that Adam Woodley has been to several Dixie Runs and...

There is not much there, the guy that is running it is technologically challenged. But he is retired and can focus energy on making things happen. I sat down and talked with him about the development 2 weeks ago. I asked him to please give as much notice as possible for the work days. But as we...

Here are a couple pictures from Facebook.

Yes, TDEC awarded $800,000 to develop a 1,347 acer OHV park in Coal Mount, Tennessee. (Grundy County) This was the first time any money like this has been awarded. In years past 100% of the money has gone to WMA road maintenance. This is in hopes to help economic development in the area. This...

Okay from the Dixie Run 2020 Tread I have been working on some Q&A for Southern Four Wheel Drive Association.(SFWDA) With that said it's total derailed from what it first started as and I see a need for a new tread. With that said I have been around SFWDA since about 1995. I have been in and...

Holy Crap! Missed out on all the fun the past few days! I know Pete and I know he has done plenty of work in Coppinger Cove. Also yes at one point he was involve with SFWDA and like I said I wasn't around for much of the past couple years. And he is not actively in the leadership now. Pissing...

Okay, the plot thickens. I looked up the MLS. Only the lower half of the park is for sale and it does not include the wooded sections...correct me if I'm wrong. Think this should be it's own tread. I am going to pull out my shovel and start digging. Price is $850,000. I assume that there has...

Very interesting, Thank you for the update. I eagerly await to hear our information on it. I will update on what I hear.

SFWDA is under new leadership. Positions were term limited and Ray served his term. Good or bad we are at our next phase. Jay Bird is the new President. I can't tell you what his exact vision is yet...but I will tell you he is about riding, getting people out on the trails and making this...
