Choosing a Bruce Trail Club

When you become a member with the Bruce Trail Conservancy, you are a member of the Conservancy and one local Bruce Trail Club. Most members choose to belong to a Club that is closest to their home, but the choice is yours. 

If you wish to be a member of more than one Bruce Trail Club, you can add “Additional Clubs” for a reduced price. This is a great option for cottagers or others who regularly travel between two or more favourite areas of the trail.
