Our recent Annual Dinner in Boston was a resounding success, raising over $150,000 in support of Club programs. We're already planning for the 2013 Annual Dinner in San Francisco, CA. We hope you'll be joining us!

Boston, MA 2012: As salt water lapped at the cold mouth of Boston Harbor, hundreds of members and friends gathered in a cozy ballroom, drinks in hand, to celebrate the state of the American Alpine Club. This year’s Annual Benefit Dinner Weekend, held March 2 and 3 in Boston, was the most successful in Club history. And 110 years is a heck of a history.

The AAC raised almost $150,000 for its programs that support climbers—the most ever raised at a single event. It brought scores of climbers together: 200 for the member reception/slideshow on Friday, and 450 for the dinner on Saturday. Look one way and you’d see old friends connecting after decades lost. Look the other way and you’d find college students eagerly shaking hands with David Breashears. Read more on Inclined, the AAC's Blog...
