ABOUT:

GLJT is a very diverse club. We have members from all walks of life, and all age ranges. The only requirement is you must be at least 18, and of course own a jeep. GLJT adheres guidelines set by organizations like the Blue Ribbon Coalition and Tread Lightly. The "gas pedal," or "tear it up" crowd need not apply. When it all comes down to it, this is a club that loves to have fun, and will always go the extra mile to help out a fellow member.

MEMBERSHIP:

New members will need to find a current member to "sponsor" them into the club. What that means is, before you actually join and pay dues we would like a chance to get to know you, and vice versa. Sponsorship period is for 3 months. Perspective members would need to attend all meetings in that time if at all possible. Attend at least one trail ride with your sponsor, and participate on the forums and website. On the meeting after the sponsorship period, the potential member leaves the room while his/her sponsor gives their opinion. Usually a decision is reached fairly quickly and a vote is taken by the general membership. Either in....or out. On occasion we do have sponsored members that already have a lot of time around the club. Sometimes the sponsorship period can be abit shorter than 3 months.
