If you’ve ever thought about leading your own off-road organization—one that promotes safety, ethics, education, and real community impact—there has never been a better time. USOffRoad is expanding nationwide, and we are actively seeking dedicated leaders to launch and operate their own state chapters.

To understand what your chapter can become, look no further than our flagship program: Virginia Off-Road (VAOR). In just its first 150 days, VAOR proved—beyond any doubt—that a well-run statewide off-road nonprofit can thrive. It became the model used to build the national chapter structure, membership systems, digital tools, and community programs now offered to every future chapter director.

This is your chance to take that proven foundation and build something meaningful in your own state.


Virginia Off-Road: A Success Story Future Directors Can Replicate

VAOR is the reason the USOffRoad chapter system exists today. The results speak for themselves:

🚀 400 Members in the First 150 Days

This explosive early growth demonstrated that people want structured off-road leadership—training, maps, community events, and a trusted statewide nonprofit they can support.

💰 Fully Funded Within That Same Period

Virginia Off-Road reached full operating funding from memberships, donations, corporate sponsors, and fundraising programs—quickly proving the financial viability of a statewide chapter.

📢 3,000+ Facebook Followers & Thousands of Monthly Interactions

The community engagement surrounding VAOR showed us exactly how to structure social media, marketing strategies, content posting schedules, and natural membership funnels for every future chapter.

As a prospective chapter director, these numbers aren’t just impressive—they’re encouraging. They show what’s possible when you follow the same blueprint.


The Programs Your Future Chapter Will Be Able to Offer

Virginia Off-Road didn’t become the flagship chapter by accident. It built a comprehensive network of programs—systems that USOffRoad will replicate for every state that joins the network.

As a chapter director, you’ll receive the tools and structure to run the same initiatives in your own state.


1. A Complete Educational Program Ready to Launch

USOffRoad provides training modules based on the proven VAOR system:

  • Off-Road 101 and 201 safety classes
  • Recovery & winching training
  • Trail etiquette (Tread Lightly® aligned)
  • Seasonal terrain awareness
  • Youth safety materials

These courses attract members, build your authority, and differentiate your chapter from typical off-road clubs.


2. Fully Integrated Digital Trail Maps Built for Your State

One of the most powerful benefits of starting a chapter is the access to USOffRoad’s national unified_trails system.

Your chapter will receive:

  • A professional statewide trail map
  • Popups with ratings, trail conditions, and detailed info
  • A public-facing map page on your website
  • Backend tools to update and add trails
  • Real-time condition indicators (open, closed, muddy, blocked)

These are the same interactive engines that helped VAOR explode in popularity.


3. Adopt-a-Trail and Stewardship Programs

Every chapter will have access to the structure pioneered by Virginia:

  • Adopt-a-Trail volunteer teams
  • Trail cleanup events
  • Partnerships with land managers
  • Reporting tools for downed trees, erosion, obstacles, water crossings, etc.

These programs position your chapter as a responsible steward—not just a riding group.


4. Veteran Outreach (Trail to Recovery) & Family Programs

Your chapter can also implement:

  • Trail to Recovery, VAOR’s veteran and first responder support program
  • Off-Road Explorers, our youth education and engagement platform

These community-based initiatives add depth and mission alignment to your chapter’s identity.


5. Branding, Badges & Gamification Tools

VAOR invented the signature style of USOffRoad:

  • 100+ digital badges
  • Bigfoot “Find Me” games
  • Trail Honors Awards
  • Holiday drives (Off-Road Angels)
  • Event-based achievements
  • Scratch-off donation games

Your chapter gets access to these national assets and can customize them with approval.


Why Become a USOffRoad Chapter Director?

Running a statewide chapter isn’t just a role—it’s an opportunity to build something impactful, respected, and sustainable.

When you become a chapter director, you are:

  • Leading your own nonprofit
  • Serving your off-road community
  • Building a legacy program
  • Managing events, training, and outreach
  • Establishing yourself as a statewide authority in responsible off-roading

But you aren’t doing it alone. USOffRoad provides the infrastructure so you can focus on growth, community, and leadership.


What You Get as a Chapter Director

Every chapter receives a robust suite of tools and support, modeled after what made VAOR successful:

✔ Your state’s domain (ex: NCOFFROAD.org, TXOFFROAD.org)

USOffRoad purchases and configures your domain.

✔ A complete website

Branded, formatted, and integrated with your map, events, blog content, donation forms, and membership features.

✔ A unified statewide trail map

Already functional—just add more trails over time.

✔ 100 vinyl badges + 100 rubber frogs

Part of your launch kit for membership and event incentives.

✔ Access to national branding, graphics, and badge designs

No need to start from scratch.

✔ Full support on setup, marketing, and onboarding

Including training on how to run your programs.

✔ A structured financial model

  • $1,000 annual fee
  • 10% of donations go to the national program
  • The rest stays in your state

This ensures every chapter can sustain itself while contributing to the national ecosystem.


Why This Works: The Virginia Off-Road Formula

VAOR proved that the USOffRoad model can work anywhere—urban or rural, mountainous or flat, desert or coastline.

The formula is simple:

1. A strong brand

People trust professionalism.

2. A structured nonprofit

Transparency matters.

3. Community-first programs

People want to be part of something meaningful.

4. High-quality digital tools

Modern riders expect modern resources.

5. Volunteer-driven energy

Good leadership attracts good people.

Chapter directors who follow this model can expect growth similar to what Virginia achieved—because the system was built to replicate success.


Your State Is Waiting. Will You Lead It?
