Juneteenth

While for many June 14 is an extra day off and a chance to catch up on sleep or yard work, we feel it's a great opportunity to remind everyone of the goal of the AMC. "AMC is inspired by the untold diversity of our members and friends. We aim to be an inclusive, equitable, and kind community. At AMC we are united in our adventures by mutual trust, collective safety, respect for the natural world, and appreciation for our time together outdoors. We pledge that AMC will always provide a welcoming and respectful environment." If you are looking for ways to celebrate Juneteenth, simply search online for Juneteeth celebrations near you.
