Bringing People Together to Conserve Vermont's Natural
Resources
___________ Hazen's Notch Camp ___________
The Hazen's Notch Camp has since 1994 provided week-long sessions of day and overnight camp for children ages 6 to 14. Located in the Hazen's Notch area of Montgomery, Vermont - the Hazen's Notch Camp is a program of the Hazen's Notch Association, a non-profit organization founded in 1994 to promote and engage in conservation of open lands, environmental education, outdoor recreation, scientific research, and stewardship of natural resources. The Hazen's Notch Camp has been one of the organization's most important programs throughout these years.
Hazen's Notch Campership Fund
The Hazen's Notch Camp is of enormous benefit to a great many
children in our area. We had come to realize, however, that for some
families the cost of Summer Camp is not affordable. In order to make this
quality experience available to these children, the HNA established the
Hazen's Notch Campership Fund. In 2011 the Hazen’s Notch Association raised $3,270 for
the Hazen's Notch Campership Fund from members, individuals, families, businesses,
organizations and area towns. This year our goal is to raise $4,000.
Please consider making a contribution to the 2012 Campership Fund which supports the Hazen's Notch Camp. Your gift
will help make it possible for many children to attend camp who might otherwise not be able to have this opportunity.
Hazen's Notch Landowners
Over 30 private landowners in the Hazen's Notch Area make their land available to
the Hazen's Notch Association for recreational trails and environmental education programs. We are very grateful to our cooperating landowners who make their land available to winter trail users who enjoy cross country skiing + snowshoeing. Many of our cooperating landowners also allow the Hazen's Notch Camp to use the trails which traverse these private properties. Thank you to all of our cooperating landowners for their generous support of the Hazen's Notch Camp.
Hazen's Notch Trails Fund
The HNA maintains a network of 40 miles of trails on 2,500 acres of
private land for cross-country skiing, snowshoeing and hiking.
Contributions to the HNA Trails Fund support the costs of maintaining trails,
trail markers and signs, of expanding the trail network, and improving
trail surfaces to prevent damage to soils, water quality and plants. We
are proud of the network of trails that we have developed in partnership
with our neighbors in Montgomery. Show your support for the HNA Trails by
making a contribution to the Trails Fund. People who contribute to the
Trails Fund at the following levels will receive a Winter Trail Pass as a
"thank you": Family $75, Individual $50, Student $40.
