Rally for Rangers connects motorcycle enthusiasts passionate about discovering and protecting the world’s special places with park rangers dedicated to preserving natural and cultural heritage. With the support of a $10,000 grant from the Overland Expo Foundation, RfR hosted an adventure motorcycle rally based in Custer, SD, to support indigenous conservation efforts of the Northern Cheyenne and Oglala-Sioux tribal parks as well as the Black Hills National Forest Motorized Trails Program. In addition to the grant provided by the OXF, participants were able to raise more than $20,000 to purchase and donate a new motorcycle, night vision optics, tactical binoculars, and sturdy flashlights. Participants also spent a half-day volunteering for the USDA National Forest Service to install new fencing which blocks access to illegal riding areas, and conducted a clean up of the same area removing tires, trash, shooting range brass, and more. Rally for Rangers’ travel to tribal areas and donation of gear to tribal rangers helps protect critical species like bison, elk, pronghorn, deer and more for the benefit and enjoyment of overland travelers in the greater Black Hills region.

Overlanding is about appreciating and protecting the natural world. Lowering your vehicle’s tire pressure not only improves traction and ride quality, it also helps reduce the environmental impact by evenly distributing the vehicle’s weight, minimizing trail erosion and preserving the terrain. This practice helps ensure that our trails remain beautiful and accessible for future generations of adventurers. #overlandexpo #overlandexpofoundation #aev #jeep #offroad #airdown #overlandresponsibly

Fox Bravo Overland is an off-road/overland adventure team consisting of U.S. military and law enforcement veterans who aggressively tackle long distance off-road challenges in their four-wheel drive vehicles. A $5,000 grant provided by the Overland Expo Foundation helped enable 26 veterans and first responders to participate in team based overland travel and adventure while re-engaging with other veterans, experiencing camaraderie, teamwork, mission focus, mental and physical challenges. Operation Southwestern Spirit, a 10-day overland adventure in New Mexico and Colorado, consisted of military veterans/first responders from the US Army, Navy and Marine Corps, federal law enforcement, the fire service, the New Zealand Army, the British Army and British law enforcement. Many suffer from Post Traumatic Stress (PTS); many have physical disabilities due to their service. After leaving service, either voluntarily or due to injury or illness, many do not reconnect with their community. FBO reaches out and encourages teammates to participate in their trips to help re-establish community and hope. For more information about Heroes Night Out and Fox Bravo Overland and their programs that aim to promote post-traumatic growth and healing for military veterans and former first responders, visit their website: https://lnkd.in/gTYFqkeZ #foxbravooverland #veterans #firstresponders #stewardship #overland #healing #outdoors
