About Us
The St. Joe Cycle Club was founded in April of 1965 by a few St. Maries residents who had a vision to maintain and preserve a riding & recreation area that could be used by all. In the process, some pretty great local races began to happen at Christmas Hills; and they continue to this day.
The St. Joe Cycle Club is a non-profit group run completely by volunteers ensuring Christmas Hills Recreation Area continues to be available for camping, motorcycle and ATV riding, and of course home to great race events.
If you are using The Christmas Hills area, please do your part to ensure that it continues to be available for us all to enjoy.....pack it in, pack it out.
Follow our Facebook page for the latest news and event details.
