On Sept. 27, the Trail Conference placed the final stone step on the Appalachian Trail at Bear Mountain, completing a reconstruction project that had been 14 years in the works.

Ten days later, we marked the 95th anniversary of the birth of the Appalachian Trail, which was built and blazed by Trail Conference volunteers through Bear Mountain and Harriman state parks. That original section of Trail was opened on Oct. 7, 1923.

This Oct. 18, we invite you to join us in celebrating the people who are part of this legacy of stewardship at our Annual Gala.

We will be honoring:

Karen Lutz, Appalachian Trail Conservancy
Public Partner of the Year

Campmor
Corporate Partner of the Year

The evening will include live music and a silent auction. Enjoy a taste of local fare and an open bar featuring Platform Brewery.

Limited tickets are available: RSVP today!
