We want to know what you like, dislike, and what you'd like to see in future issues of the PA. Thank you in advance for your contributions!
PATC's Newsletter - The
Potomac Appalachian, or the "PA", as it is known inside the club, is
assembled every month by a staff of club volunteers. The newsletter
staff has a Chief Editor, Features Editor, and Forecast Editor
(responsible for assembling the club's monthly list of activities), as
well as a host of writers, proofreaders, and photographers. The
newsletter is mailed to the PATC membership and other trail clubs across
the country every month, and is distributed in retail stores and other
public venues. If you would like to help out in any of these roles,
please email the editor.
The newsletter includes club business, current activities, scheduled
activities, and feature articles (both current and historical). If
there's something of note going on in the club, you'll find it in the
PA.
PATC encourages our members to help us save on printing and postage
costs by opting to read the newsletter online. To choose online
delivery and discontinue delivery of the paper copy of your newsletter, please email us
to let us know your preference. If you change your mind, you can
always email us to go back to getting the paper copy.
Past issues of the newsletter can be viewed on-line. Click Here for the list. Or Click Here for annual indexes.
