Why Become an FMCBC Member?

Insurance

Member clubs qualify to participate in our liability insurance program which includes comprehensive Third Party Liability coverage and Directors and Officers coverage. We also provide assistance and advice regarding risk management, waivers and incident reporting.

Project funding

Member clubs qualify to apply for project funding through our annual FMCBC Member Club Grant Program, which supports club-initiated projects around the province. We’re also on hand to help with outside grant applications and to alert you to any additional funding opportunities.

Member discounts

FMCBC member clubs receive special discounts on outdoor products and equipment, including reflective trail markers and climbing equipment.

Be heard

The province is vast and we depend on our member clubs to be our eyes and ears in the backcountry. Clubs can bring forward concerns from their regions; alert us to potential access restrictions, changes in trail usage, and new or increased user conflicts; and seek support and advice for positive resolutions.

Get involved

All members have the option of getting directly involved in the future of backcountry recreation in BC by joining our regional and/or provincial committees, taking part in our events, spearheading initiatives and contributing their unique skills.

Stay informed

Members are the first to know about the latest news and issues concerning non-motorized outdoor recreation in BC, including updates from the BC government, public comment periods, educational opportunities, and so much more. Members also have the option of receiving our monthly e-newsletter as well as our semi-annual Cloudburst publication.
