PLEDGES
The Kettle Moraine ATV Association and Antigo Area ATV/UTV Club will again host the 11th Annual ATV/UTV Charity Ride on October 13th, 2018 at NorthStar Lanes in Antigo. In 2018 we welcome the Wisconsin ATV Association as our third partner! Again, this year we will be raising money for "Make-A-Wish Wisconsin." Last year we raised an amazing $27,500, an all time record! Thank you to everyone who participated, sponsored, donated and/or contributed in any way. The funds raised helped five (5) wish kids.
Start getting your pledges now for a better chance to win one or all Three (3) of the really great pledge prizes. All you need to do is print a Pledge Form from the tab on the left and round up all the donations you can from family, friends, coworkers, school or church people, or even other club members. If people donate only $5 at a time, that amount will add up quickly. For every $100 you get donated as pledges you receive a ticket for Three (3) prizes only those obtaining pledges are eligible for. Yes, it's possible to take home all three. For example, if you can obtain $500 in pledges, you will get 5 tickets to place into a container for a chance to win. Lots of incentive to obtain pledges and its for a great cause! Don't worry, if you have a hard time asking for money, you can simply pay the $25 (individual) or $50 (Immediate family) at registration.

Currently Antigo Area ATV/UTV Club is working with the City of Antigo and Langlade County to obtain a "much" shorter road route to the trails via Police and Sheriff escort!

Food is included with your admission AND there is a cash bar for refreshment.
NOT ON AN ATV, NO PROBLEM
For those who do not partake in the ride itself, but just want to hang out, check out the raffles, maybe bid on a silent auction item or two, and just share in the experience, we would love to have you. Everyone's welcome, you just won't get to go through the food line however. Come around 6 pm and enjoy the fun!
