Jim Fetig

President

I have learned an incredible amount about this club and its members over the past 18 months. I want to continue the work we have been doing across the board to strengthen the club and its operations. We are transitioning to the next generation of leadership, nine of the 12 elected officers will be new. We should continue building the PATC brand, activities and our communications efforts to attract members and leaders from all generations and backgrounds. There is also more we can do to add rigor to our management processes and budgeting process. Our biggest challenge is finding qualified people for our senior leadership positions.

Relevant Experience

I have been president since the previous election. I can serve one more term. Prior to that, more than a decade as an activity leader, AT thru hiker, trail maintainer, ridgerunner and ridgerunner coordinator, service on various ATC and club committees, chainsaw and trail maintenance instructor. I received the Myron Avery award in 2019.
