Help John Leckrone Support Trails

 Trails bring me together with my friends and family, and form the basis for my essential connection to nature.

I’ve been a mountain biker and a hiker essentially all of my life.

John Leckrone

Many years ago, I discovered an amazing all-volunteer organization dedicated to building trails and I was drawn to the people making this happen. As I began my own personal journey from just a trail user into an active steward of our trails, I became a Trail Crew Leader for SCMTS and then joined the Board of Directors as the organization’s President. 

Eleven years later, SCMTS has become an enormous force for positive change. We are now roughly 40 full-time employees, supported by thousands of passionate volunteers, out there every single day designing, building, and maintaining truly world-class trails for, and with, our community. 

Our aspirations continue to grow and we need your support. You can dig, you can advocate, you can give…or you can do them all! Today, I’m asking you to give to help us secure the funding we need to continue to grow into 2026. Every gift helps move the needle, and your gift will be matched dollar-for-dollar until the end of the year. Thank you for considering supporting us!

Thank you for your gift to trails!

I really appreciate the support.

Power On

Building and maintaining trails happens all year long. And there are lots of ways you can connect with other riders and hikers to dig in the dirt, learn techniques for building world-class trails, and much more.
