ADOPT A TRAIL SECTION - VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

 

The excitement is building!

 

Chapter members adopt a section of the trail and regularly maintain it. But anyone can help out on any section you get the urge to explore.

 

We have a standing Volunteer Agreement with the Allegheny National Forest to work on the trail.

 

Please contact Keith W. Klos at: anfchapter@northcountrytrail.org or nct001@verizon.net for details on how to abide by the Volunteer Agreement and qualify for Workmen's' Compensation under this agreement with the NFS. This means that if you get hurt, the federal government covers you as long as you are practicing safe work procedures, wearing a helmet and not operating a chain saw.

 

Here are the sections that are currently under adoption by our members:
