Membership Benefits

There are many reasons to join the foundation and the following are just a few:

• The Cause – Your membership contributions will help raise money that we will put directly back into the wilderness areas that we so cherish. We are non-profit organization, so none of our members make a profit on this. The money goes to keep the forums running or RIGHT BACK into the wilderness. Win/Win all the way around.

• The Forums Themselves – Both Adkhighpeaks and ADKForum are owned and run by the foundation. As with any online website or service, there are costs and fees associated with hosting and running it. Your membership donations go to keep these two online educational resources operating and available to the public. This includes continued upgrades and improvements. Note - that membership and participation in the forums is free and does not necessarily require that you be a member of the Foundation. However, see point below

• Expanded Forums – Once you become a member of the Foundation, you gain access to an expanded forums area. This area serves 2 purposes: to conduct Foundation business away from the general forum and to provide a social gathering spot to discuss any numbers of topics. Moderation is slightly more relaxed in there so conversations may be a tad off-topic and livelier at times although very respectful.

• Voice and Vote on Foundation matters – Per our by-laws, any member in good standing, has voice and voting rights on how the foundation will disseminate proceeds or what projects we will support as well as other general forum activities (fundraisers, gatherings, etc..). It’s “our” collective money, so we should all have a say in how we use it. Members will also have voice, but no vote at any board of director meeting, which will allow you to become involved in shaping the future of the foundation.

As you can see, for $10 a year, you get all this. That is not too bad at all. Look for even more surprises and benefits to come in the near future.
