Hi All,
With the Jeep 101 coming up fast, I thought it would be good for me to put this out on the Site. As one of the TREAD reps for the club, I wanted to post up about the classes. There is a TREAD Trainer class (8-hour class), for people that want to be able to teach others about TREAD Lightly, I've already signed up and paid the $25 for the November class being held in Cabela's in Hudson MA on November 17th.

Here is a quick guide for what the TREAD LIGHTLY acronym stands for. The 'T' in TREAD refers to 'traveling responsibly', The 'R' refers to 'respecting the rights of others', 'E' is a reminder to 'educate yourself', 'A' is for 'avoiding sensitive areas' and 'D' means 'do your part' to maintain trail cleanliness. Be sure to follow these guidelines for a great trail riding experience for you and other riders using the trail. All things we should strive to do here in Baystate Jeepers.

The Second class is a Free (As in just your time is spent) On-Line self-guided class that should take about 20-30 minutes of time, and I think all the members of the club should take at one point. the online class is free and you can print a Certification after passing it.

There is also an online class for Kids. At the same link as the Online course.

Here is the Cert you get to print when you complete the Online Course:

The TREAD Lightly premise is something that all club members should be aware of and strive to follow.
