CABIN WORK CREWS
Work crews help the overseer with the above mentioned duties. If you are new to cabin camping, joining a work crew is an excellent way to learn how to responsibly use a cabin, in addition to providing a valuable service to PATC. Most overseers visit their cabins 4-6 times a year resulting in about 150 cabin work trips annually, club-wide. Although many overseers have recruited an on-going "team", many others look for help by asking friends and posting notices in the Potomac Appalachian and on the on-line calendar.
