I have been planning since Oct. 2001 a clean-up Wellsville trail ride with my current off-road club (RRORC.com). Here are some details and all are welcome to help!

Well so far here is the plan:

On May 11th we will meet at the Wal-Mart in Calcutta, Ohio. This Wal-Mart is off of State Route 11 at the Route 170 exit. This is a Super Wal-Mart that has food and all other needs if people have to grab something. The meeting time will be at 9 a.m. We will depart from Wal-Mart at 9:30 a.m. for the trails in Wellsville. The trails are roughly a 10-min. drive from Wal-Mart. So have your member’s meet us there and they should have no problem picking us out.
I plan on spending the most part of the morning cleaning. The Creek bed area from chicken hill down steam is my main focus point. This area is about 3/4 to a mile long, so it may take some time. There are in this area a couple of burned vehicles. I am not sure if we can do anything with these vehicles or not? Maybe with a couple sets of torches we could chunk them up, but not sure??? There is a ton of cans, trash & junk. I would like to make a noticeable difference.
I have even thought about making up some fliers that would state what was done and which clubs where responsible for this clean up. With the fliers made and laminated, I thought they could be stapled to trees every so often? I’m kind of unsure able that part.

Do you have any contact names of the Wellsville area landowners? I would like to throw an e-mail at a couple of them to advise what is being planned!

Thanks,
Pottsy

I'll be there for sure. What do you drive?? I met someone from your club before at my work I think. There is a post about this in the gen discussion board awhile back. Take a look there. Mel from heritage 4x4 has some local clubs wanting to do the same thing, and she also knows how to contact one of the owners. Might want to send her an e-mail. Make sure you re-post again, or send me an e-mail to remind me. I've got a terrible memory, and I'll forget the date.

Jason,

Do you have a e-mail contact at heritage 4x4 that I could get a hold of?

Thanks,
Pottsy

I'll see if I can dig it up. If so I'll pm you the address. If I cannot find it look through old searches on the gen. 4x4 discussion board. I see you posted this there as well. It was just brought up 1-2weeks ago.

What kind of willys??? I own a 59 willys pickup, I'll begin restoring this spring.
