Although I have spent nearly 40 years as a successful risk
taker and entrepreneur in Western Pennsylvania, I probably still surprised many
local developers when I decided to invest nearly $2 million of my own money into
development of an ATV riding resort like Mines & Meadows. I
have felt driven to do this project by some basic beliefs: a love
for the sport, its great camaraderie, and an intense desire to pass
along some of the joy I've found to others that might not
otherwise have the opportunity. My goal is ultimately to provide
ATV riders with the "Country Club" atmosphere they deserve. Cynics might say that at 68 years of age,
I will never recoup my investment; they may be right. I prefer to think
that providing a state of the art resort where friends and families can
congregate and enjoy this wonderful sport is my way of giving
something back.
Pennsylvania ranks second only to Texas in the number of
registered ATVs and holds a similar position in new sales. Even more
interesting is the fact that 37 percent of all those registered ATV owners live
right here in Western PA. As an avid ATV rider, I am all too aware of the
crackdown in recent years on (illegal) riding on both private and public
lands. Until now the only alternative for local riders was to drive 3-4 hours, spend a
fortune in gas hauling your ATVs, wait in long lines just to get on a trail,
probably pay again to stay overnight and finally repeat the process to come back
home.
Mines & Meadows thankfully offers area residents a
completely different ATV experience and will eventually have all the amenities one might expect at a
first-class ski resort. Our annual rates may seem somewhat higher than other
riding parks until one considers the
average annual costs being paid by ATV riders in PA. Our
membership fee allows us to control access while
providing our
members and their families
with more enjoyable riding time, less waiting and far less travel. It also
permits us to sponsor special Members Only events, competitions
and social gatherings. Storage and ATV rental services are even available for those
who want to avoid the hassles of towing their vehicles to our site. We offer
groomed trails for all skill levels and feature the only underground mine riding
in the tri-state area. So checkout the rest of our website, then come join us
at Mines & Meadows for the thrill of your life. Please help support our
vision for ATV riding by becoming a Gold Club Member
today.
For those interested in investing directly in
Mines & Meadows, we offer extremely competitive rates of return and
even have plans that let you ride for free while you earn.
