Looking for another great way to help fund your OHV club? Check out the Polaris T.R.A.I.L.S. grant program.  This program allows ATV clubs and associations to apply for a generous grant of up to $10,000.  Any 501c3, 501c7 or non-profit organization involved in trail development, maintenance, safety, education, or land access can apply for the grant.  The T.R.A.I.L.S. program started in January of 2006 and has already given out over $700,000 in grants to various organizations.

Clubs and organizations can submit their applications two times per year to be reviewed by the T.R.A.I.L.S. committee.  Applications are reviewed three times per year, and the deadlines for submissions are March 1, July 1 and October 1. If your club or organization is approved, you could potentially get up to $10,000 to help your cause!

T.R.A.I.L.S. stands for:

  T = Trail Development
  R = Responsible Riding
  A = Access
  I = Initiatives
  L = Lobbying
  S = Safety
