Welcome to the AMC - Delaware Valley Chapter Meetup site.   The AMC is  the Northeast's oldest outdoors club and one of its most respected.  The AMC is built on the pillars of conservation, outdoors education and in getting people out on the trails.  Our "About" page provides more information about the AMC and our Chapter.  We ask that when you join you submit a photo and tell us a little about yourself.  It's not mandatory that you provide this information but it's useful to many members who want to meet people with similar interests. 

Our activity leaders are experienced outdoors people who volunteer their time and expertise.  All leaders receive training in activity and risk management prior to leading Chapter activities.  Safety is always our number one concern.  We recognize that hiking and our other activities involve elements of risk that cannot be avoided.  Participants must accept the risk and  take responsibility for their own safety.

We also are happy to introduce you to our Young Members group.  Young Members is an effort to reach out to our members in their 20's and 30's by scheduling activities that are of interest to people in that age bracket.  Activities will include social gatherings along with our outdoor activities. 

Participation in Young Members is open to all.  The only requirement is to be young "in spirit."  Our initial Young Members activities appear on the February calendar.  Check it out.

If you are not participating in an event and have not previously indicated that you are attending there's no need to indicate you are not coming.  For our type of group that information is not essential.
