Who/What Is ROR??? PDF  | Print |  E-mail

Based in the Portland Metro area with members in Oregon City, Salem, Portland, Aloha, Tillamook and more!  

Incorporated in 2003, Raven Off-Road OHV Club was started to pursue the interest of the OHV community in a new way. Since most clubs are structured around the vehicle class (Type I, II, or III), we just didn't fit that classification and decided to start anew. Raven Off-Road was based on our love of the OHV experience regardless of the type of vehicle we chose to achieve it in. We are also a large believer in giving back to the community that we live in by donating time and funds to help clean up dump sites, adopt families and community areas and just over all be available when we are needed for our special niche. We are a family driven club, always remembering that today's child is tomorrow's future, by teaching them now, we are preserving our way of life for generations to come.

    Raven Off-Road is involved in the following but definitely not limited to... 

  • Adopt-A-Family, Thanksgiving

  • Adopt-A-Family, Christmas

  • SOLV Earth Day

  • SOLV Down By The Riverside

  • SOLV Beach Clean Up

  • Adopt-A-Road, Clackamas County

  • Adopt-A-Trail, Tillamook State Forest

  • BLM Dump Site Clean Up

  • Rose Festival Float Towing

  • OHV Trail Work Parties

  • Education on Practicing Tread Lightly (c)

  • United 4 Wheel Drive Association

  • BlueRibbon Coalition

  • Oregon Off-Highway Vehicle Association
