2010 IFWDA CONVENTION

2010 Annual IFWDA Convention Feb. 26-28
Hosted by:  Monroe County 4x4 Club Inc.




Welcome to the Indiana Four Wheel Drive Association website. We are a non-profit organization which actively promotes outdoor recreation for all makes and models of 4WD vehicles through our clubs located in both Indiana and Illinois.

Owning and maintaining a four wheel drive vehicle is an integral part of your life and those of your close friends. It allows you and your family to discover a whole new outdoor world the average person will never see. It provides the ultimate adventure and brings you closer to nature. This may be through organized events involving camping/wheeling trips to weekend swap meets and competition events hosted by various clubs within the Association.

As you browse this new site, you will see a few changes have been made, as well as having our ever popular discussion forum available to our registered users. We hope these improvements will help to increase 4-wheel-drive (4WD) recreation, responsible land usage, conservation, and education within Indiana and Illinois. One of the ways this can be achieved is through the various clubs and individuals that support this great sport of ours- the sport of responsible off-highway recreation.

Feel free to stop by and see what is going on. Many events are open to all and we encourage you to come, meet, share and participate in our great sport. We hope you plan on attending an Indiana Four Wheel Drive Association event in the near future. We will be glad you did.

2009 IFWDA Club Activity Award
Four Wheels to Freedom 4 Wheel Drive Club
Four Wheels to Freedom 4 Wheel Drive Club of Central Indiana is dedicated to responsible 4 wheeling, family fun and community service. We meet on the first Sunday of the month in Shelbyville, In. Our membership is diverse as the vehicles represented in the club. For the responsible 4 wheeling we try to set a good example in front of new members and offer guidance when ever possible. It is not an accepted practice to condole members into trying an obstacle/trail they are not ready for. To help club members we offer tech nights to help upgrade member rigs.
We only have one function a year which is for adults only. All other events we encourage everyone to attend. Allot of our members do not have a problem with helping keep track of the kids and ask people to mind their manners and keep it clean.
For community service we donate money to the church we hold our meetings at, help the local fire department with financial support to buy fire awareness books for kids in the local school system, and our main event is Toys for Tots at the Badlands. 4WTF is now in its 8th year. The club has developed this into a very successful weekend in Attica, Indiana. The Attica Inn has commented this is one of their busiest weekends of the year. We collect over 300 toys per year. The meat for the meal and manpower for cooking is handled by the club. We also handle the collection of the toys and organizing the event.
We attend the IFWDA meetings, attend the convention, works days at Redbird, Wilstem, and Interlake. We also have adopted and maintain both sections of trail #4 at the BADLANDS. We have installed drainage pipe at Redbird and winch anchors in the rock garden. We donated 6 hours of an excavator at Redbird to drain mud holes and prevent erosion. We also attend two parades a year, and hold two mystery dinners.
To reduce the threat of terrorism, we work at the Indy Motor Speedway assisting Homeland Security checking bags and coolers for illegal objects coming into the speedway to help prevent a terror attack during one of the greatest spectacles on wheels.
Our club can be found on any given weekend wheeling somewhere in the United States. We produce and distribute a monthly newsletter.
One of our members while wheeling around the US for three months qualified and won a Hooters Ambassador Award and the club got a free wing party due to Jeff's adventure and the amount of dinning he did around the US.
The same member always offers a big breakfast to anybody around and out on the serves various coffee cakes and deserts at stops depending on the time of day.
Camp Riley supporters and dedicated to IFWDA, UFWDA and Tread lightly.
