Non-members are welcome to join our public hikes. However, the Club does ask that you become a member ($10/year fee) after a 2nd hike to help support both our costs and our stated objectives (such as donations to trail maintenance).
Membership is inexpensive and easy. $10 annual membership is used to fund the PTC website, for club’s membership in the Keystone Trails Association, and to support Club Operations costs (PO Box, in-person Annual Meeting expenses and other incidentals).
You can become a member by filling and submitting the application , the Waiver and Release, and making a payment online or download and mail in a New Membership Application and Waiver and Release and mail completed documents with a check for dues payment to : Philadelphia Trail Club, P. O. Box 27, Narberth, PA 19072.
In addition to the blanket Waiver and Release agreed to at time of application, a sign-in sheet at each hike is an agreement to the Waiver and Release for that hike.
