Hello and welcome to the forum. For me the appeal of a jeep/offroad club is that all there sharing a hobby..benefits to the person; new friends, technical help with your jeep, people to others in need..for instance one of my club members was out driving around and found an fj stuck in the mud, he did a facebook post for help and two club members just happend to be close had a winch pulled out the fj. Benefits to the community, Our club helps out the community by holding fundraisers by hosting show and shines. Trail riding even for an older wheeler like me does not wheel alone even though I have a winch due to one may get hurt and need a friend. Group trail rides are fun because its just fun watching jeeps negociate obstacles no matter what the obstacle is. Somebody always has more experience that somebody else and we all learn from each other. A club should welcome you with open arms...if they don't find or start another club. I hope you find this helpful and find a club.
