NEA4WDC Trails Maintenance Fund !!!

The Northeast Association of 4WD Clubs is in its 7th year of solid growth. We've gone from an idea in a guys garage to 22 some-odd clubs, thousands of members and access to thousands of acres of land to wheel on. This is a local Association, this is you and me and a ton of other folks you see here hanging out donating their time to the sport. This isn't some high-brow national organization with tons of money and a marketing department.

Recently we've taken on two major projects that have sucked up literally all the money in the trails fund. We cleaned up a landowners land in Central Mass who graciously lets us wheel on their properties, the dumpster rentals costed a chunk of change. Secondly we're building a 4x4 bridge (or bridges) on some newly acquired acres in Southern New Hampshire. Some of you signed up for the Fall Crawl will have the chance to wheel this land for the first time.

Anyways, wheeling isn't cheap, we all know that, but if you could find it in yourself to make even a small donation, a couple $5-$10 even, that would help out. If we had everyone just donate $5 we'd be in great shape. Please consider a donation to the trails fund if you got a few extra dollars in your paycheck in the coming weeks.

Below is a link to the site, paypal button, and the snail mail address:
Please make a note on your check or paypal that it is for the Trails Fund.

DWE will be presenting the NEA with our donation from our Truck Show at the Fall Crawl. I was going to suggest to our club that we ask that half of it go to the Trails Fund but after mentioning it to Roy, we are going to ask that ALL of it go to the Trails Fund.

off topic slightly. A member donated, and is trying to also donate to the OFR fund, but the paypal page has an error.

Balance $353.05

It would be easier for me if he just donated to the trail fund. If he still wants OFR then he can do so.
A check for OFR can always me mailed to me.
NEA4WDC
45 Congress Street Apt 10
Nashua, NH 03062

I say this because OFR has its own bank account.
Thanks for donating.

the trails fund can be used on any trail, including OFR.

I sent the info out to PatriotJeepers and the Patriot BOD will be voting on this issue soon.

Let's not discourage someone from donating to whatever they want. If he wants to do both that is fine, all we have to do is fix the link or he can mail a check. :)

I wasn't discouraging, just clarifying. :D

I know. I was just saying in general. Not directed at anyone in particular.

The reason I asked for a check for OFR is it has a separate bank account.

Balance is $816.41
As some of you will see on the spreadsheet JonFund sent the fund $250 through Paypal. JonFund also sent $250 for LMFT. When the money is transferred from Paypal to our bank account I will mail Todd a check.
