ABOUT:

The Georgia Bounty Runners 4WD Club, a member of Southern Four Wheel Drive Association and the United Four Wheel Drive Association, is looking for people to join our family oriented club. We want responsible four wheelers interested in the promotion of 4x4 recreation, conservation of our natural resources, and community involvement.

MEMBERSHIP:

The Georgia Bounty Runners 4 WD Club (GBR) is an organization of families that participate in off-highway trail riding in 4-wheel drive vehicles.  Our spouses, children and friends do accompany us to most events. The GBR holds one business meeting and one trail ride each month.  We require you to attend at least one meeting before going on a trail ride. This requirement is enforced so that prospective members understand the clubs safety requirements both for their protection and our members protection.

The business meeting is held on the first Saturday (second Saturday if the first weekend is a holiday) of the month. The location for the meeting is the Dunwoody Library. We cover club business, initiations, driving tips, mechanical tips, planning of trail runs, and reports of previous trail runs. The monthly club trail ride consists of such organized offroad events as the Dixie Run, Smoky Mountain Venture, or a run to a nearby National Forest or ORV area. Alcoholic beverages are not allowed on any trail ride.

Any make or model 4x4 is welcome, from stock to highly modified.  We do require that the vehicle have a low range transfer-case and be street legal with up to date registration and insurance.  Most members in the club started out with a stock or near stock 4x4 and over the years have built it up to handle more difficult trails as they gained experience.  So you might be asking, should I bring my stock Ford, Chevy, Jeep, Toyota or Land Rover on a trail ride?? Answer: Sure, as there is usually a milder bypass around extreme obstacles. Also, the GBR adheres to "Tread Lightly" which promotes responsible use of our nation's public and private lands.
