Creating a Positive Future for
Off-Highway
Vehicle Recreation

The NOHVCC Adventure Trail Series

 

Enter the Adventure Trail! Read about Penny, Rascal, and AT; get activities; color the story pages!

 

One of the keys to keeping trails and riding OHV recreation areas open, as well as getting new ones developed, is to encourage all riders and drivers to be on their best behavior when recreating. Things like being courteous to other trail users, keeping our machines quiet, wearing all the proper safety gear, and staying on the trails go a long way in helping to portray off-highway vehicle recreation as a legitimate and healthy, family-oriented, and social activity.

One of the primary goals of the National Off-Highway Vehicle Conservation Council (NOHVCC) is to help ensure that there are plenty of riding opportunities available for future generations. To achieve that goal and to make education is fun, NOHVCC created the Adventure Trail series.  It consists of a set of Posters, an Activity Book, and a Computer Games that is available as a CD-rom or on-line from our website.

The Messages

The NOHVCC’s Adventure Trail addresses ten primary messages in large, colorful panels.Family in Adventure Trail  Each panel portrays a specific message in humorous drawings that feature spectacular scenery and lots of wildlife.  There is one (2x3') poster for each panel and a collage poster that shows all 10 panels.  The panels or posters can be set up in many different environments.  The NOHVCC Adventure Trail trailer has each panel hung along the walls of the trailer.  As the kids (along with their parents who may learn a thing or two as well) go through the 'Adventure Trail', they work on a fun 10-question quiz. Once they fill out the quiz, they are given the activity book, the CD game, temporary tattoos, stickers, and other fun items that are available at that location.

Adventure Trail Activity Book

The Adventure Trail activity book is a high-quality, 20-page publication that features all ten messages with an OHV storyline, puzzles, games, and coloring pages. The Adventure Trail activity books and CD-ROM are available to OHV organizations and dealers as handouts at their events and businesses for only the cost of shipping. NOHVCC also offers a Public Service Announcement (PSA) CD with each one of the ten messages featured in separate files. These can be used by both print and electronic publications.

 

 

 

 

 

Adventure Trail Poster Set

The posters can be utilized in many different ways. Some organizations have laminated the posters and attached them to a flip board for presentations. Others, such as OHV dealers and land management offices, simply hang them on the wall, either all at once or one-at-a-time on a rotating basis. Still other organizations have fabricated “mini” Adventure Trails within enclosed trailers or other outdoor exhibits. For more specific information on how to utilize the poster series, contact NOHVCC.

 

 

 

PSAs

Newsletter and magazine editors can also use the Adventure Trail Public Service Announcements creatively by publishing one-at-a-time in an on-going series for maximum effect. Banner ads featuring the Adventure Trail will soon be available for web pages.
