Eastern 4-Wheelers is centered in Connecticut but we have members hailing from all over the Northeast. We are an environmentally conscious and family oriented club who seek to enjoy and promote the sport of driving 4-wheel drive vehicles over challenging terrain consisting mainly of open, unmaintained town roads and private land.

We actively participate in land issues by being politically active and environmentally conscious by doing regular trail clean ups/maintanence and Adopt-A-Road programs. Our community service projects include food drives, toys for tots events and inclement weather transportation for Drs and nurses.

The purposes of this club as organized are:

  • To provide social, recreational, and educational events and activities for its membership.
  • Work to maintain existing trails and find new land to be used for recreational 4 wheeling.
  • Promote the responsible and safe use of 4 wheel drive vehicles.
  • To be readily available, when called upon, to help in emergencies where our 4 wheel drive vehicles and personnel are needed.
  • Become involved with the legislative process in an effort to effect a positive outcome on land use issues as it relates to our sport.

  • Who's Busy? Raise Your Hand!
    Maybe should be "Who Isn't Busy?" All I guess I can say is "I warned you". The last Land Use Blog was back in late July. Of course.. LOTS has happened since and is still happening. I have a lot of EC4WDA "national" info.. from OH and PA and SEMA. There is Regional stuff too. Go grab a soda or other beverage, recline the office chair back a little and get ready for a lengthy read. Enlarge the

  • Silence isn't as silent as you think.
    The Region newsletter hit a snag recently. Mainly, it hasn't been too much of a priority, so it may or may not be published in time for distribution at the Region meeting. I'm no longer asking for anyone to step up to be the editor because I think it may all be falling on deaf ears anyway. It'll be published so long as I find the time or someone offers, but I don't see that in the future. Gas is
  • Reform, Re-org, and Renew
    In an effort to keep every member of EC4WDA Northeast Region (D) informed and up-to-date on the activity of your Association, we started this blog back in the spring. Well, it got away from me and instead of keeping the updates coming; I lost the focus of it. While I’ve heard from clubs outside of our Region express the blog was informative and motivational to them, the primary goal for you, the
  • PUSH THROUGH IT!!!
    If we all did the things we are capable of doing we would literally astound ourselves. Thomas Alva EdisonEverybody knows what the focus of 4x4 clubs is; wheeling. But what happens when the wheeling just isn’t enough? Should we fight the tide of membership loss and start pushing ways to retain the numbers or should we accept the change and work with the numbers we end up with? Man, those are some
