Trail Clean-up and Maintenance
The club members were very active this year with lots to do. The club stepped up in adopting the Gooderham Trail and are now proud members of the OF4WD Adopt-A-Trail Program. We hosted both a spring and a fall trail clean up run and responded to numerous clean up and maintenance requests.

Gooderham Bridge repair and rebuild: COORJC was there along side Buckhorn Snow Machine Club, Kawartha ATV and Haliburton clubs! Building bridges in more ways than one. Members took it upon themselves to break out the BBQ and feed the bridge crew. Well done!

COORJC was also there to help with trail clearing:
Gooderham – Blow Down OF4WD put a call out to help clear a significant number of trees down from a wind storm. COORJC was there along with KATVA, HAJC and other OF4WD volunteers.

Message From the President
The COORJC was founded on April 23, 2017.
20 short months from inception and we have accomplished so very much. We started with a half dozen unknown off road enthusiasts from other Clubs around the province. The fun and the friendships grew quickly. We realized early on that there was room for yet another off road Club. Especially one with a home base only minutes from one of Ontario’s premier wheeling destinations, the 5 Points Trail System. And so the COORJC was born.
The types of people we have attracted to both our Facebook group and our Club is nothing short of amazing. The Jeeping community is unlike anything I have ever been a part of. My hat’s off to Jeepers everywhere but especially to the members of the COORJC. Without you none of this would have been possible.
To our Board, those members who have volunteered their time and efforts, I can’t possibly thank you enough.
Our efforts to give our members some of the finest wheeling experiences possible, both in and out of the Province, will continue and be improved upon for next season. As will our dedication to trail up keep and community social involvement.
Looking forward to the 2019 Season !
Thank you all.
Mark Sims
Pres. COORJC
