ive been there and a couple of other ATV parks, and have never even heard about them checking VINs.

Sounds like someone may have a guilty conscience... jk

I live 4 miles from shiloh ridge and ride my atv down the back roads/hwy to get there. At one time I heard something about the parks and wildlife department making people register atv's. But as far as park staff or police checking vin's then they must have been looking for one that was reported stolen.
