Hi guys, I know money is tight these days, but I was wondering if the Ohio chapter of LOST would like to become a member of the United Four Wheel Drive Association. This organization is always fighting to keep our trails open, they've assisted with Camp Jeep, they organize members and inform them of actions impacting trail access, and if our group joins United then every time an Ohio LOST member becomes a paid United member our group would get $3 of the membership fee.
As a member organization we would get more visibility for our group, voting rights in UFWDA, and any member of our group that becomes a member of United would get $5 off their membership dues. Individual membership is nice because there are a large number of companies that support United and some, like Quadratec, give discounts to UFWDA members.
I strongly believe in United's mission to defend our right to trails and I'm willing to pony up the first year's organizational membership fee if you all want to do this. You can find out more information about United at

So, should we become a member org in United or should we pass for now?
