Default Any Rover Clubs In Massachusetts??????

Just curious to see if there are any clubs up here in MA or a small group of people with Rovers. Recently moved up here from New York and It's a but boring.

Where in Mass are you? My club will be heading up to Maine in June and of course participating in the Overland Trophy in Vermont later this year.

I'm in Massachusetts also, but there's no Rover club that I know of. There are off road clubs in New Hampshire and a defunct New England Rover club, but that's it. Check the Rovers North site for info on regional clubs.

Thanks for all the feedback guys, maybe I'll have to grab a few people and start my own up. I've looked at Rovers North before and most of their info is out of date. I did see the NH club but the forum posts were out dated and not too many new ones.

@ hilltoppersx, whats going on in Maine, I've heard of the Overland Trophy but I never looked into it. I've also registered to join NELRC but haven't gotten an invite yet.

While not Rover clubs, there's a couple groups to check out if you want to wheel. I'm a member of both.

Northeast Toyota Crawlers // Welcome
and
Eastern4Wheelers

Eastern 4 Wheelers is a very old club, they are primarily hardcore offroad at this point. Toyota Crawlers is another very good club - Obviously biased a bit by Toyota stuff, however the VP of the club drives a Jeep. They have many "Shiny truck" capable trails & runs, but don't be fooled, there's guys with full on competition buggy with rear steering, etc in these runs too.

Since you're in Newton you'd probably like to know that NTC have runs in RI, which should be within an hour of you, give or take.
