Rocket City Rock Crawlers 4-Wheel Drive Club is located in Huntsville, Alabama and is open to all four wheel drive vehicles (no ATVs).
RCRC meets on the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 P.M. We meet at Newk's on University Drive. (Here is a map) If you would like to join us for dinner, please arrive around 6:00 P.M. The business portion of the meeting begins at 7:00 P.M.
The club typically holds a trail ride each month and we try to alternate between easy and hard rides so everyone can have fun. This is a family oriented club, therefore, alcohol and/or drug use is strictly prohibited during all trail rides.
In addition to monthly rides, RCRC currently holds a yearly King of the Hill rock crawling competition event toward the end of August to raise money for land purchase and charity (including but not limited to Toys for Tots). We also assist other 4WD clubs during similar activities, support local “trail clean-up” efforts, and participate in the Huntsville Christmas Parade each year.
RCRC is a member of the Madison County Volunteer Organizations Active in Disasters (VOAD). As part of this membership, RCRC will respond as requested by VOAD to help the local community recover from disasters. This response includes but is not limited to transporting critical personnel and supplies during adverse weather or road conditions, emergency communications and other 4x4 related emergency responses. In addition, many club members have been Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) trained.
Interested applicants must attend two (2) monthly club meetings as well as go on two (2) trail rides before the club votes on a membership. Dues are collected after the vote.
Yearly dues are $55, collected in January of each year. A portion of the yearly dues go to Southern Four Wheel Drive Association and United Four Wheel Drive Association, so by joining RCRC, you also become members of Southern 4WDA and United 4WDA. Members of RCRC receive newsletters from Southern 4WDA and United 4WDA on a quarterly basis.
