Volunteer
Volunteers built the Appalachian Trail, and volunteers keep it alive and flourishing today. More than 6,028 men and women contributed more than 196,000 hours of their time last year to the trail. Volunteer programs are designed to appeal to people with diverse talents, interests and experience levels.
Based from an old farmstead in Carlisle, Pennsylvania, the Mid-Atlantic crew covers the Appalachian Trail from Virginia's Rockfish Gap to the New York-Connecticut state line. Sponsored by the National Park Service, Appalachian Trail Conservancy, and the clubs of the Mid-Atlantic region, our eight week program runs from September through October.
