I signed that last week or so. But from talking to freinds in PA, it seems that it's too late. Again from what I was told, the owner has a week or two to leave and is already looking for a new place to build a park. Sad too, I never got a chance to go there.

Thanks guys, every little bit helps...it really sucks that they are closing... Where I live on LI there isnt ANY legal place to ride ATVs and about the only off roading in a truck you can do is on the beach during the summer...if there even is a beach other wise we gotta wheel at night, in and on not so legal places which is always a huge risk... Paragon is an awesome place and is only a 3 hour ride,tops, for us so its a real shame.

thanks again
-Mike

The operators plan to fight on, but even they believe that it was a longshot. However, the
show of support by the 4x4 community was amazing. There were hundreds of rigs. Several
sponsors donated prizes for a raffle. They must have raised tens of thousands for the defense
fund.
Here are just a few photos taken in the staging area. The park was very crowded, so the
wheeling wasn't too great, lot's of rush hour traffic. But I am still glad that I attended.



Here is a shot of the trail. Good tires were a must. Many of the FJCs (especially the automatics)
were having trouble staying on the trails when downhill on the packed snow and ice.

thanks to everyone that signed. i was out there last summer and me and my buddies were making plans to go out there a lot more this summer but so i hope things turn out for the best. chasing each other around at my friends farm gets old and can only be done in the winter.

Raush Creek is Still active, not as big, but still a good park...

Rausch Creek Off Road Park is devoted to providing a fun legal place for 4x4 off road clubs and organizations to go "wheeling." The park consists of 1,700 acres of easy, intermediate, and hard trails. Rocks, bowls, hills, the glacial "Rock Creek", club friendly trails, and free on site camping combine to make Rausch Creek a unique 4x4 destination. We are not open to quads or bikes. For information about the MX/ATV park, go to rauschcreekracing.com.

The minimum group size is 2 vehicles. Visit our forum to find people to wheel with.
