On behalf of Adirondack Foothills Trails Alliance (AFTA), we would like to thank you for your membership in 2020. Your support helps us continue our mission of expanding and improving mountain bike access across Central New York and the Adirondacks. The generous support of individuals like you makes it possible for AFTA to exist and to make the mountain biking experience better for everyone. We have some exciting projects planned for 2021 and would greatly appreciate your continued support.

  1. 2021 Projects: 
    1. Old Forge – A new single track parallel to Road Trip and a new flow trail down McCauley are planned.
    2. Caroga Lake – About $60,000 was spent in 2020 and approximately $55,000 is planned for this season for brand new machine built and hand built trails.
    3. Waterville – More work is being completed with machine work and hand work to expand this system and meet up with Tassle Hill.
    4. Tassle Hill / Janis Road– The crew have been busy building and improving this trail system also. This will continue in 2021. Look for new areas on Trailforks.  They have also begun grooming this area for fat biking in the winter.
    5. Hinckley – New Trails were added in the spring last year and more will be developed and improved in 2021.
  2. Volunteer Days – We have few tentative volunteer days planned for 2021:
    1. Caroga Lake- June, July and August
    2. Old Forge- September
    3. Janis Road/Waterville- June and July
  3. Fundraising – Due to what’s happening right now, the funding from Towns, Counties and Grants are very limited.  We have raised some money through donations.  AFTA is a 501c3 organization so donations etc. can be tax write offs.  If you know of any organization or individual that would like to make donations, please do so through the website, www.adkfta.org, or mail in to our PO Box.  AFTA will earmark donations to specific projects if requested. This year we will be doing membership levels. Below are the details. Membership cards will be provided to each member this year.
