The
NorthStar Trail Travelers (NSTT) is a member club of the
American Volkssport Association (AVA) and the International
Federation of Popular Sports (IVV). We are a unique club in that
we offer walking and snowshoeing events primarily in Minnesota
State Parks, trails, forests and recreation areas.
NSTT is:
- is dedicated to providing quality walking experiences in
Minnesota State Parks and Trails
- is dedicated to providing the very
best in folkssporting events
- is dedicated to providing new, interesting and unique
awards, made in Minnesota
- is a working club ("ask not what your club can do for you;
ask rather what you can do for your club")
November 8, 1998 was the
historic day that the NorthStar Trail Travelers voted to
become a membership club. After seemingly unending meetings
throughout 1998, the organizing committee voted to charter the
club and elect officers.
This club wants to make
events fun by providing avenues for social interaction with
other participants. We do that through various means, from
providing food at events, to devising two-loop trails
with the checkpoint at the start/finish area so walkers can
meet each other coming and going to the trails.
We are proud of our parks
and our state. We want to encourage everyone to not just drive
to a park and do our walks...we want you to see all the
surrounding beauty and enjoy the best that Minnesota has to
offer!
See you on the trails!
