Chapter News

ADK NJR Needs You!

We are a volunteer-led ADK Chapter and rely on the generosity and leadership of our members to make the chapter work. These people work in many ways to foster a community based on responsible recreation in the outdoors, education and conservation.

It’s important that we have new hike leaders to continue our very active hike schedule each season.

If you would like to volunteer for any of opportunity to serve, please contact Henry Barkhorn at chair@adknjr.org

Current Opportunities

Becoming a Hike Leader

Outings leaders must have knowledge of the  ADK Outing Leaders Guide (OLG) that the Board of the Adirondack Mountain Club (ADK) has approved.

The objective of this guide is  (1) to provide a common certification program for ADK trip leaders; and (2) to provide best practices for trip leaders in order to enhance the outings experience for all participants.

If interested in becoming a hike leader, and we hope you will, contact any current hike leader or send an email to Henry Barkhorn at chair@adknjr.org

For additional information, or to reach ADK directly, you can also use the Contact Us page on our website.
