The Orlando Jeep Club Mandate

Volunteering for the Jeepin' with Sherriff Judd (JWJ) event is an exclusive privilege only offered to current members of The Orlando Jeep Club (TOJC).

If you are not yet a member, CLICK HERE or the button below to register, we would love to have you.

Being a member of TOJC offers so much more than just the opportunity to volunteer for the JWJ event. We have weekly socials, monthly trail rides, an annual Luau in the Fall, and an awesome year-end party. There are also several opportunities to ride the trails and make JWJ event preparations throughout the year. Lastly, you will have access to a brain-trust of experienced Jeepers with decades of experience and skills they are willing to share. Regardless of where you are in your Jeepin' journey, there are no shortage of TOJC members that will have something valuable to share with you. Dues are only $50 per year, hope to see you on the roster!
