Trail Club
MATC volunteers install a new trail sign on the AT.
MATC brings together people from all aspects of life, uniting common interests in the outdoors and a profound love of the Appalachian Trail. Lasting friendships and new-found skills abound amongst MATC members.
MATC worktrips usually take place on weekends and may involve overnight camping at or near the worksite. Worktrips can include lean-to, privy and site construction; footpath recovery (bog bridges, erosion-control techniques, waterbars); trail relocations; brush and blowdowns removal; paint blazing, and assisting the club's Maine Trail Crew with rockwork and footpath hardening.
MATC Overseers of the Trail (Districts: Baldpate, Bigelow, Kennebec, Whitecap and Katahdin) advertise for new maintainers of trail sections and/or lean-to/tent sites in the club newsletter, The MAINEtainer.
Volunteer opportunities abound in the club. Whether it be trail or site maintenance, committee work or clerical work, come out and enjoy Maine's spectacular scenery and make a positive, lasting contribution to the Appalachian Trail.
Donations are tax-deductible.
