invite them to your homes for dinner and socials.

i can see issues with graffiti and entering restricted areas but what is the big deal with riding dirtbikes and atvs

btw this is bonn

It's not the riding of ATVs that's the issue, it's how and where they are ridden.

Anyway, you have to figure out what said young adults are interested in. Try and get them together, talk to them, see what motivates them and base community activities off of that interest.

If you live close and/or know a particular kid, sure, dinner might in the form of an informal BBQ probably isn't a bad idea at all. Maybe some movies and games would add to it as well; little community events/tournaments in fishing, sports, or something of that nature may be viable as well.

Michelle has the right idea. Adults must home in on their interests and work from there. I've found that a neighborhood project is a good social-building tool.Years ago, I bought a few park benches from Kohls for the neighborhood and had most of the teenagers over to help put them together after playing basketball. Oh yeah, you have to feed them to close the deal. Basketball has always been the lure I use to meet,greet, and teach young men in my community.Ofcourse it helps that I still play and coach. True coaches teach more than sports but, becoming a lifelong productive member of society.

ill give you one thing we like to do......ride atvs and dirtbikes

Good for you, then go do it at a location where it is legal before you end up with a fine and a record.
