The Alpine Club of Canada is seeking nominations for three positions on our Board of Directors for the upcoming election. Each year, three of the nine positions on the Board are elected for three-year terms.
Following the results of the 2024 election announced at the club’s Annual General Meeting in May, we are now preparing for the 2025 election. Positions available for election in 2025:
The incumbent President elected in 2022 will be seeking re-election. The incumbent VP Activities was appointed to the position in October 2023 to fill a vacancy and will also be seeking re-election.
This is a great opportunity to deepen your involvement with the ACC and contribute to the club’s strategic direction. We are looking for qualified individuals who are passionate about the ACC’s mission and eager to make a difference.
Interested members should review the Board Member Role Descriptions and complete the online application process by October 31, 2024. Get involved, make a difference, and help shape the future of The Alpine Club of Canada!
During week 4 of the 2024 ACC General Mountaineering Camp, longtime GMC participant and camp lover Thierry Levenq reached a significant milestone—his 100th GMC summit—on an outing to climb the stunning Serendipity Spire in the Selkirk Mountains.
In 25 local sections across Canada, all year round, members of the ACC climb, ski, hike, go to the gym, clean up crags, build trails, and gather for social events. From St. John’s to Vancouver Island to the Yukon, thousand of club outings are run by volunteers each year.
Pulling from the 2024 ACC Gazette, these stories are from our club members, in their own words, about an aspect of their section that is special to them.
In the late summer of 2023, Isobel Phoebus, Sasha Yasinksi and Sara Lilley established a new route on the southwest face of Gladsheim Peak in the Valhalla Mountain Range, supported by the Jen Higgins Grant for Young Women.
We appreciate that the lands known today as Canada are home to the enduring presence of all First Nations and Métis people, and the Inuit and we acknowledge the past, present, and future generations of these Nations who continue to lead us in stewarding this land, as well as honour their knowledge and cultural ties to this place. The Alpine Club of Canada’s head office is located in the traditional lands of Treaty 7, which is comprised of the Stoney Nakoda Nations of Wesley, Chiniki, and Bearspaw; three Nations of the Blackfoot Confederacy: the Piikani, Kainai, and Siksika; the Mountain Cree; and the Tsuu T’ina of the Dene people. This territory is also shared with the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. Before the signing of Treaty 7, and prior to the establishment of provincial boundaries, this region was also used by the Ktunaxa and the Maskwacis people.
