| Q. | Why should I join NAXJA? What are the benefits? | |
| A. | This is a relatively common
question from perspective members of NAXJA and while many people say
that the forums and the information provided is reason enough for
joining, we do our best to provide many other benefits of membership.
NAXJA is a club first and fore-most and an online discussion site
second. NAXJA chapters host approximately 10 events every year which all
members are welcome to attend. These events are at the largest and best
known OHV areas in the US and are typically multi-day events which
include a BBQ and raffle. With the effort established of local
chapters of NAXJA we are providing the members a way to meet with local
XJers and participate in their own events outside of the forums. NAXJA
hosts a national event every 5 years to celebrate the anniversary of the
introduction of the XJ in 1983. We have had events in 2003, 2008, and
2013. The next one will be in 2018. The event is held in Moab, UT,
usually the first week of October. In 2014 we are celebrating the 15th
anniversary of NAXJA as a club. NAJXA is hosting a national event in
Harlan, KY, July 4th weekend. When joining you are granted access to the members only forum, the membership news forum, the technical articles area, the forum archives area and you are granted several discounts with vendors. Many of our supporting vendors offer temporary or permanent discounts to our club Members. You will also receive your membership card and club sticker. The club also actively supports BRC and several other groups promoting the safe and fair sharing of public lands with the interests of OHV use. NAXJA as a whole, including the chapters have donated over $10,000 a year to land use each year for the past several years. |
