CREDIT FOR HIKES:

Record of all scheduled hikes taken and attendance have been kept from the inception of the group.  Individual mileage accomplishments and hikes taken continue to be calculated.  Sometime in the future, as we get organized, perhaps some form of recognition can be established, such as T-shirts or patches.

DUES:

Annual dues are five dollars ($5.00) a year. The membership year is from January 1st to December 31st.  New members joining during the months of October through December will have their dues apply to the upcoming year.  Dues are used to provide volunteer hike leaders with the required additional equipment, communication radios, and printing cost.  Dues are required when submitting membership application form.  Application forms can be obtained from a hike leader or on the web site.
