Trollhaugen Hare Scrambles
September 25, 2016
Due to a scheduling conflict at our venue Trollhaugen Outdoor Recreation Area, we are forced to move this event up a week.
The next Norsemen Hare Scrambles is held at Trollhaugen Recreation Area in Dresser, WI.
You've never seen anything like it before, on Sunday September 25th, in Dresser Wisconsin, District 23 off road riders take on the Troll. Trollhaugen Memorial Race Track in Dresser, WI will be rocked for this legendary, once a year spectacle! The infamous Area 51 will give riders thrills and chills as they try to conquer the hills at the Troll. Four races for riders of every age, size and ability. And just like every Norsemen event this season, 50cc riders race for FREE. Gate fee is just 10 bucks to see the legends of off road tame the Troll. Make your plans to attend NOW!

Support Legislation to Quantify the Economic Impact of Recreation
Send an Email in Support of S. 2219 and H.R. 4665
Companion bills, S. 2219 and H.R. 4665, known as the Outdoor REC (Recreation's Economic Contributions) Act have been introduced in the U.S. Congress and are starting to move. The bills would require the Secretary of Commerce in conjunction with the U.S. Department of Labor and in consultation with federal land management agencies to assess and analyze the outdoor recreation economy of the United States and the effects attributable to it on the overall U.S. economy. The assessment may consider employment, sales, contributions to travel and tourism, and other appropriate contributing components of the outdoor recreation economy.
TAKE ACTION NOW
A private 2012 study found that outdoor recreation generates $646 billion in consumer spending each year and supports 6.1 million jobs. This study was conducted by the Outdoor Industry Association in cooperation with several partners. The motorized recreation industry funded the motorized portion of the study which found that approximately $257 billion or nearly 40% of the total $646 billion in economic impact is derived from motorized recreation.This is important information for policy makers and agency personnel as they make important land use decisions about how to best provide for responsible multiple uses that meet the needs of their local communities.
It is important that key decision makers hear from OHV enthusiasts the importance of the impact of motorized recreation. Take action and send a letter to your Members of Congress in support of the legislation and highlight the importance of motorized recreation. The TAKE ACTION NOW link will take you to the ARRA web site and a suggested email already written for you and ready to add your own thoughts.
