Tip of the Week
The Appalachian Trail Conservancy is a volunteer-based, private nonprofit organization dedicated to the conservation of the 2,175-mile Appalachian National Scenic Trail. This is a 250,000-acre greenway extending from Maine to Georgia. Founded 80 years ago, the ATC was formerly known as the Appalachian Trail Conference. Benton MacKaye organized the very first Appalachian Trail conference in 1925. Today, the ATC maintains clubs that serve to engage the public in conserving this essential American resource.
