The Trails Council of the New York-New Jersey
Trail Conference is a forum for discussing trail-related projects and concerns,
and sharing information and strategies. The Council also makes decisions concerning
the adoption of new trails, blazing procedures and other matters that directly
affect the building and maintenance of hiking trails. Voting members of the
Council are the Council officers, Trails Chairs, Supervisors, Trail Crew Chiefs
and Leaders. We welcome and encourage the participation of club trail representatives
and interested visitors at these meetings, which are held in each even-numbered
month.
