🐾🧰 HAPPY FATHER'S DAY FROM VASA! 🧰🐾

To all the OHV dads out there...

Dad: "We're just going for a quick ride."

Also Dad:
✅ Stops to check every trail sign
✅ Talks to every rider he meets
✅ Tells the same story about that one ride from 15 years ago
✅ Inspects every bridge like he's a state engineer
✅ Somehow turns a 1-hour ride into a 5-hour adventure

And let's be honest...

🚜 Dad packed the tools.
🗺️ Dad planned the route.
🔧 Dad fixed the machine.
📸 Dad took zero pictures because he was too busy making sure everyone else had fun.

This Father's Day, treat Dad to what he really wants:
✔️ A full tank of gas
✔️ A day on the trails
✔️ And maybe a new Trail Access Decal if he hasn't renewed yet! 😉(vtvasa.org/join)

From all of us at VASA, thank you to the dads, grandfathers, stepdads, and father figures who pass down a love of the outdoors and responsible riding to the next generation.

Happy Father's Day and we'll see you on the trails! 🏔️🏁
