This Awareness Workshop is a 3-hour course that will provide attendees with an introduction to Tread Lightly! principles as decision making guidelines while enjoying the great outdoors in a safe and responsible manner. The workshop will provide you with situational awareness, the know-how on minimizing your impact while recreating, and the outdoor ethic that will help sustain our trails for generations to come.

 Would you like to be part of the team that makes TrailFest a success?
Please consider volunteering for at least one of the shifts and spots you desire.

 Both groups, and individuals are needed. From merchandise sales, and registration, to tech inspection, and trail guides. It takes a large team of volunteers to make this event happen!
To show our appreciation, each volunteer will receive a free "Volunteer Only - TrailFest 2016 Event Staff T-Shirt", along with a secret special prize to be awarded during announcements Saturday evening.

Whether you're an old school veteran with SFWDA, or this is your first event, it's all good. There's something for everyone. Whether your part of a team, a family, or an individual; everyone can help out. Each volunteer spot is broken down into specific time slots, and are explained in detail within.

Announcing the 4th Annual "4 Wheeling for a Cure" April 9, 2016 at Windrock Park


4 Wheeling for a Cure

April 9, 2016

 Windrock Park
Oliver Springs, TN

Brian Overly presenting the 2015 event proceeds check to St. Jude organization representative

 Join the Rattlerock Club for the Fourth Annual 4 Wheeling For A Cure Benefiting St. Jude Children's Research Hospital!  In honor of Brendle Sara Overly, Jim Tunnell, D.A. Young and Kenneth Spence where all proceeds are donated to St. Jude Children's Research Hospital in hopes of finding cures and saving children.

Help St. Jude Children's Research Hospital change the way the world treats childhood cancer and other deadly diseases.

Treatments invented at St. Jude have helped push the overall childhood survival rate from 20 percent when the hospital opened in 1962 to more than 80 percent today.

Because of St. Jude supporters, St. Jude creates more clinical trials for cancer than any other children's hospital and turns laboratory discoveries into lifesaving treatments that benefit patients — every day.

How your support helps kids:

Thanks to committed fundraisers and donors like you, no family ever pays St. Jude for anything.
St. Jude shares its research discoveries worldwide, so one child saved at St. Jude means thousands more saved worldwide.
