ATRA is subsidizing the courses up to 100% on a preapproved basis in order to update the list of members who are able and willing to assist with trail clearing on ATRA sanctioned projects on public land, such as, but not limited to Blackfoot, Ministik, Hummingbird, Panther, etc.

Chainsaw certification is required by the AB Government because of OH &S Protocol requirements and Liability issues on public lands. Participants are agreeing to assist on a volunteer basis with trail maintenance when asked.
