The Trekkers are blessed to have 110 active members. Approximately 1/3 are from St Albert, 1/3 from Edmonton and 1/3 from other communities surrounding Edmonton. To become a member simply print a copy of our  membership application and mail it to our club address on the form. |
In addition to walking the club holds potlucks, brunches, BBQ's and picnics which adds to the friendship aspect of the activity.
Many of the club members attend the annual Alberta Conference (Camrose in 2009 and St Albert in 2010) and the annual Canadian Conference (North Bay ON in 2009 and Sydney NS in 2010). |
|
The Club organizes Volkswalks, event walks, guided walks and year-round
events in Edmonton AB and adjacent municipalities. The Club cooperates with the
other Volkssport clubs in Alberta to develop a schedule of walks for the whole
the year.
|
Most members participate in the IVV "Awards" program which entails recording,
in an IVV booklet, the events and distances walked. Certificates, pins and
patches are awarded following completion of progress levels of achievement.
Participants walk for fun, fitness and friendship at their own pace in a
non-competitive environment. |
