Some of our outings and activities are described with the words “new members especially welcome” or “new member hikes”. The Berkshire chapter is reaching out to all of you who have just recently joined the AMC or those who may have been members for a while but never quite made it into the woods, out on the water or up that mountain. Whether you are a member of five months or five years, have never been on an AMC hike or join in all the time, these activities are for you.
New member hikes are designed to be an introduction to the Appalachian Mountain Club outings. They’re an opportunity for everyone to join in and experience the comraderie that develops on an AMC trip. Spend time with folks who have belonged for a while and who can share their stories about adventures with the AMC.
These links provide information about taking part in our various activities. They are for anyone who wants to get involved: prospective members, new members, and old-timers who want to try new things.
