Membership is an Avenue for Lasting Change

The American Birkebeiner Ski Foundation is a 501(c)(3) that promotes healthy active lifestyles among people of all ages and abilities through year-round outdoor recreation activities and events. Becoming a member of the American Birkebeiner Ski Foundation (ABSF) and Mt. Telemark Village (MTV) is your chance to ensure that future generations have the opportunity to challenge themselves outside, creating memories that shape their lives and their communities.

As a member of the ABSF and MTV your support allows us to continue to steward the Birkie Trail System, develop and maintain new trails at Mt Telemark Village, offer youth programming such as Birkie Trail Kids, expand Birkie One Diversity, Equity, Access, and Inclusivity (DEAI) initiatives, and grow Birkie Green sustainability projects.
