I just read a wonderful article by Pat Malin, Tramp & Trail Club member, about the Club and its involvement in outdoor recreation and conservation activities. Take a look at the article at the following link: http://www.dec.ny.gov/pubs/83865.html or http://www.dec.ny.gov/docs/administration_pdf/0812trampsutica.pdf . Don Fellows, another T&T member, contributed the pictures of club activities.
Pat did a great job explaining the conception of the club and as she stated anyone can join us - just go to www.trampntrail.org for a schedule of events!
PS- The Conservationist is a publication of New York State Department of Environmental Conservation and at $12.00 for 7 issues is a bargain and full of interesting information about issues that affect NYS (and all of us) as well as many beautiful pictures!
Lu Blanchard is semi-retired and spends free time with family, reading, dancing, singing and enjoying outdoor activities.
Dianna Morris lives in Marcy and fell in love with the woods as a young girl. She is currently attempting to climb all the 46 ADK High Peaks - only 28 more to go.
Harold Pier taught chemistry at Utica College for 40 years and was an avid biker, hiker and skiier after retiring in 2000. He contributed to this blog from its inception in March 2012 until his death in October 2012.
