AMA
Fighting for Open Trails in California
PICKERINGTON, Ohio -- The American Motorcyclist Association
(AMA) has presented a check for $54,795.28 to AMA District 37
in southern California for use in the fight to keep motorized
trails open, the AMA reports.
The money
comes from the Save Our Trails Fund, created in April to
accept donations for District 37 legal battles and other
efforts to protect riding areas for off-highway motorcycle and
ATV riders. Right now, District 37 is in a fight to keep large
areas of the California desert open to motorized recreation.
District 37
has incurred substantial legal bills fighting closures in
California. The Save Our Trails Fund is matching contributions
made to the fund for District 37 dollar for dollar, up to
$50,000.
Supporters
can donate to help protect trails by sending contributions to:
Save Our Trails, AMA, 13515 Yarmouth Dr., Pickerington, OH
43147, or can donate online by going to the AMA website at
www.AMADirectlink.com and clicking on "Protecting Your
