What exactly is a Jeep club and why should I join one?
Idaho is a big state and there are a lot of people who call it home that love to drive Jeeps and go off-roading! People who are part of Jeep clubs love to trade off-roading stories and repair tips, hang out, trail-ride together, and even make new friends. If you just joined the Jeep family purchasing a new Jeep model, a Jeep club can be a great place to learn more about your Jeep and how to safely off-road while having fun. If you are new to Idaho or moved to another part of the state, a Jeep club can be a great place to find new friends who have similar interests. Did you know that Jeep clubs also have access to certain trails that you wouldn't be able to access on your own? Jeep clubs are also big supporters of their communities, hosting fundraisers, trail clean-ups, and even collecting donations for local organizations and charities!
