FMCBC - Volunteer Trail Work Survey for Member Clubs

  • The purpose of the Volunteer Trail Work Survey is to collect data about the nature and extent of the volunteer trail work undertaken by FMCBC clubs. While many clubs engage in volunteer trail work, which benefits the public at large, the FMCBC has no data to demonstrate the nature and extent of the trail work undertaken by member clubs. Such data would support the FMCBC’s advocacy for:

    • non-motorized wilderness recreation, such as the need for improved access to the backcountry, trail-head parking, non-motorized recreation areas and more trails
    • our trail work volunteers, such as improvements to volunteer partnership agreements and the Section 56 application process, and,
    • funding for trail work, trail markers and expenses.
    The survey will also help the FMCBC identify issues of concern to member clubs and volunteers (i.e., the need to improve volunteer partnership agreements and the Section 56 application process).

    The Volunteer Trail Work Survey will be conducted annually. By running the survey annually, the FMCBC will build a volunteer trail work data base for historical and comparative purposes. The survey should be completed by the Club trail co-ordinator or club member most knowledgeable about the club’s volunteer trail work over the current year. The club’s volunteer trail work data will be available to the club and collated data (regional and province wide) will be available to the FMCBC and member clubs for advocacy purposes.

    Answers must be submitted online, but if you'd rather prepare your answers offline, you can download a copy of the survey here.
