Please join us to learn more about what the Section has been up to, what our plans are for the coming year, and to elect the new executive.

We will send you a zoom link prior to the AGM.

Call for nominations: Looking for a way to volunteer in your community? Are you passionate about the outdoors and would like to contribute to the ACC Columbia Mt Section? This is a great way to get involved and help us continue offering trips, courses, applying for grants to adopt a trail network, media (newsletter) and to bring your expertise to the section. The board positions will be of one year in duration or more if you choose. Currently our meetings have been held via zoom.

How to Apply: A short letter of intent on who you are and why you would like to be part of the Board of Directors. All members are welcome to apply.

Exciting News! Our ACC Columbia Mountains Section YOUTH Program has received a substantial grant from the Columbia Basin Trust Community Initiatives and Affected Areas Program. We would like to whole heartedly thank the CBT, the evaluation team and the City for their interest and support of this program! We will be using some of the funding to purchase youth specific climbing and hiking gear available for participants to use upon request. We will also be using some of the funding to continue offering subsidized youth courses and programs. Finally we will be using a portion of the funding to subsidize youth trip expenses such as hut fees etc. Stay tuned for upcoming trips!
