Adirondack 46ers Trail Crew Sign-Up 2023 (google.com)
One of the necessities of doing business or volunteering in New York State is the requirement to have sexual harassment policies and training in place. Use the link in the Form to access the training. Hit the “Take the Online Training” link on the left-hand side of the screen to begin the training and make sure to send the certificate of completion back to: shtraining46@gmail.com and CC in adk46ertrailwork@gmail.com
You will receive an hour of training credit for doing this (though it generally takes less than 45 minutes).
Again and most importantly, THANK YOU once again for so generously giving of your time to do the work of the 46ers. You are the backbone of this organization, the heart and soul of this mighty group of hikers! The time you give back to the mountains is truly appreciated.
The base forms that need to be filled out are also attached to this email.
Thank you!
