Chapter Youth Program Re-Launches

The New York-North Jersey Chapter is gearing up to re-launch its chapter youth program, AMC Outings for Urban Kids (AOK), which will link urban youth groups with AMC leaders interested in sharing the wonder and adventure of the outdoors. The program will be targeted to children and teens who may not have had any previous opportunities to explore the natural environment.

If you are interested in becoming a youth activity leader, please contact Richard Barcia at 212-303-8889 (w), (212) 832-0232 (h) or for further information. Please note that all leaders must undergo a background check as well as training, which will be provided by the AMC.

We are also presently looking for at least two chapter youth program coordinators to help supervise the program and serve as liaisons to participating agencies.

We hope that you will consider becoming part of this exciting and rewarding endeavor.

          We invite you to post Trip Reports of your AMC trips. Most people like to read Trip Reports about others' adventures, and wouldn't you like to see your latest adventure on the Internet. Now you have an opportunity.

          If you've just returned from your greatest adventure, or maybe your worst, and you'd like to spread the joy, or the disappointment, submit a trip report.   If you have photos of your trip we can also include them with your report. The trip report submission form should explain all about it.
