Southeastern Massachusetts
Chapter of the AMC

The Southeastern Massachusetts Chapter of the AMC (SEM), founded in 1976, draws its members from a geographical area south of Boston including Cape Cod and the islands. You will find a thorough description of our activities in the SEM Chapter brochures.

The chapter publishes a quarterly newsletter, The Southeast Breeze, which lists many activities such as hiking, biking, canoeing, kayaking, cross-country skiing, trail work, and other special programs. Also, SEM-AMC Chapter members may freely participate in activities associated with other AMC Chapters.

For membership information, please refer to our membership page.

Activity Participation Policy

"AMC encourages involvement in its mission and activities, through its membership, programs, policies and procedures. Our goal is to be a community that is comfortable, inviting and accessible for people of any age, gender, race, religion, ethnicity, ability, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status.

Some AMC programs are designed for a certain age range of members or for a special activity or topic. However, any person who meets the minimum qualifications (skills, experience, fitness) established by the trip leader(s) for an activity is eligible to attend, if space is available."
