Finally, the answer to the universal question on the Treasure Coast...Where can I ride my dirt bike or my ATV without hours of travel? Well the answer may soon be here!
Martin County officials have expressed an interest in developing an Off Highway Vehicle park to accommodate ATV's, minibikes and motocross bikes. The opportunity has been offered to the off road community, if we can organize a club that could develop, fund and manage an OHV facility, they would be willing to lease county owned property to the club giving anyone interested in off road riding a safe and well managed place to ride.
To date a small group of individuals has formed a nonprofit corporation called Martin County OHV Club, Inc. Over the past few months we have retained the services of a land planner and have produced the attached conceptual drawing, which is not meant to be a final plan. As you can see the facility will also accommodate the Trap and Skeet Shooting Club (another fun family activity). This is only the first step. The endeavor is a work in progress, but those we have spoken to so far have had a positive response.
At this point in the process the Martin County OHV Club needs get a feel for how much interest there is in the community and how much support it can count on from potential members. If you are interested in supporting off road riding in Martin County please fill out the attached pledge letter and mail it back. Be honest about the amount of money you would be willing to spend on membership and riding fees, the amount of time you would have to volunteer to assist, plus other resources you would have available to help. All this information will help us determine the level of commitment and resources we have to work with as a group.
Please do not send any money at this time, as things progress we will keep you updated through email. This is not a membership application; actual membership will come later when more details are available and finalized.
Right now the best thing you can do is to tell any one who rides or is thinking about riding about this great opportunity. Take 5 pledge forms to pass along to other potential OHV members.
Thank you for your interest in the Martin County OHV Club. RIDE SAFE
