Members live in Prescott, Prescott Valley, Chino Valley, and other Central Yavapai County areas. Dues are $5 per person, annually. Membership is open to anyone interested.

Planning Meeting Results

1) At the January Planning Meeting, we had great difficulty in completing the Moderate & Strenuous Hike Schedule. Lois Eckman did a great job of following up after the meeting and getting commitments for additional hike leaders.

Please support the club by coming to the meetings and volunteering to lead hikes! It is the only way we will continue to have a successful hiking club!

2) The Prescott Valley 69 & Robert meeting place can no longer be used. The new meeting place is the Kmart parking lot, 7550 East Hwy 69, Prescott Valley

3) We decided to donate another $500 to the Backcountry Search and Rescue, a volunteer group for the Sheriff’s Department.

Greta Carriger did an excellent job of researching who would best benefit from our donation.
