Marc Moeys, President Verona District ATV club | Nov 11, 2020


I was disappointed to read in the Central Frontenac Council report in the November 5 edition of the Frontenac News that Councillor Tom Dewey said that "The Verona club is an island unto itself” in reference to the Verona District ATV club.

Verona District ATV club is a member of the Ontario Federation ATV. OFATV includes 20 clubs, 6,500 kilometers of trails, and has sold over 12,000 trail permits this year. The clubs are located province-wide, have reciprocal agreements with 3 other provinces, and carry out safety training.

As a first-year club we have received tremendous support from the OFATV and all of the member clubs. 

Our current use agreement allows us to connect with the Ottawa Valley trails to the north of Sharbot Lake.

I take exception to the word "island", used by Tom Dewey, to describe the Verona club.
