The One Percent Club

sThe One Percent Club is a private and invitation only association based upon one's overall contributions to the Appalachian Trail and the long distance hiking community. A 1%'er on the Appalachian Trail is one of those extremely rare trail maintainers, long distance hikers, and service providers who have dedicated their lives to the preservation of the Appalachian Trail, and the long distance hiking experience. 1%'ers perform all of the required work in order to keep the 31 trail clubs and volunteer trail organizations functioning on a daily basis....and the One Percent Club has been formed to support and recognize these rare individuals.
As the One Percent Club moves forward in this new Pandemic Era, I will focus my time and resources on the often forgotten, but crucial elements of the long distance experience. The dedicated service provider, individual trail maintainer, and long distance hiker are the backbone of the "Appalachian Trail Experience", and the One Percent Club will dedicate it's resources in order to support and recognize these rare individuals.
This is a Members Only website, and all services provided by the One Percent Club other than the Hostel Support Program and One Percent Club Grant Programs are for members only.
Respectfully,
Jim Chambers
