ADK 46r Trail Crew – Women Only Weekend 2021 July 17-18
Trail Crew Volunteers
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 Sexual Harassment Policy link to access the training. Hit the “Sexual Harassment Training” link on that page 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.
Thank you!
— The Adirondack 46er Trail Masters: Mark Simpson, Doug Varney, Mary Lamb, Curt Snyder, Brian Hoody, Michele McCall, Victoria Challingsworth
