The Potomac Appalachian Trail Club...
is a volunteer-based organization, headquartered in Vienna, Virginia. The PATC was founded in 1927 by the visionaries who planned and built the Appalachian Trail. The club now manages more than 1,200 miles of hiking trails in the Mid-Atlantic region, along with cabins, shelters, and hundreds of acres of conserved land.
PATC volunteers contribute tens of thousands of hours of volunteer service every year. Volunteers maintain trails, cabins, and shelters, teach Leave No Trace principles to hikers and backpackers, publish maps and guidebooks, and help manage a busy headquarters operation. In addition to volunteer opportunities, the club offers a busy calendar of recreational events, including hikes, excursions, cross-country ski weekends, and mountaineering trips. The club is always in need of enthusiastic volunteers.
Please visit our HELP WANTED page to learn about currently available volunteer opportunities. Visit the NEWS page for updates concerning the club, our trails, and our trail partners. Register and log on to submit work reports for your volunteer efforts. Registered website users can also submit articles, links, blogs, and calendar events.
