The National Off-Highway Vehicle Conservation Council is proud to announce and warmly welcome Brittany Sides as our newest Alabama State Partner. Brittany brings strong leadership, service-driven values, and a deep commitment to responsible OHV recreation across the state of Alabama. We recently had the opportunity to learn more about her background, accomplishments, and vision for the future of the OHV community. 

If you rewind the clock all the way back to the 1970s, Jason was already moving dirt. You probably wouldn’t line up to ride what he was building back then—but that’s where it all began: a BMX bike, a Honda Mini Trail 50, a shovel, a pile of scrap lumber, and a few adventurous buddies in Port Angeles, Washington. Six-year-old Jason had no idea that what felt like backyard fun would one day grow into a deeply fulfilling career shaping trails—and communities—around the world.

In 2025, the NOHVCC Network Development Team proudly approved Ty Brown as a new State Partner representing South Dakota. Ty came to NOHVCC highly recommended and brings with him a strong passion for OHV recreation, stewardship, and community involvement. His motivation and hands-on experience make him an outstanding addition to the NOHVCC family.

 

We began the year with a strong partnership between National Off-Highway Vehicle Conservation Council (NOHVCC) and Chinook Associates to promote and host a series of webinars designed for volunteer trail crew leaders and professional trail crews. Over two weeks, participants attended five focused sessions. NOHVCC continues to collaborate with this organization to have them deliver NOHVCC Great Trails Workshops.

With Thanksgiving only a day away, the NOHVCC Board would like to wish all of you a wonderful holiday and a joyful start to the festive season. We are truly thankful for your ongoing support and encouragement throughout the past year, and we look forward to continuing our work together in the months ahead.
