CLUB PROFILE:
The Great Lakes ATV Club (GLATV) is a member club of the OFATV and is
working to promote ATV’ing and develop trails in Ontario. The club
holds charity rides several times per year including a Poker Ride in August
and a Toy Drive Ride at Christmas. The club has donated over $4500 to
the Woodstock Hospital Foundation. The club recently hosted a charity
ride at Camp Borden for the Holmes Foundation and raised and donated over
$2100. The clubs mission statement states that it will create, enhance
and designate a trail network to give ATV riders a place to enjoy the
recreation. By providing sanctioned trails, we can educate riders to respect
the environment and other trail users.
PROJECT DESCRIPTION:
This project will concentrate on 8 riding areas used by the GLATV club.
The project will concentrate on trail rehabilitation, new trail development,
culvert replacement sufficient to carry ATV’s, the rebuilding of

to sign the trail with OFATV signage. The project has the support of the

OFSC club partner on a portion of this project (areas 3 & 4). The
club proposal is supported with pictures and a description of the work.
