Interests About Official Facebook page of the Appalachian Mountain Club, Southeast MA Chapter (SEM). Webpage: http://www.amcsem.org/ Mission The Appalachian Mountain Club promotes the protection, enjoyment and stewardship of the mountains, forests, waters, and trails of the Appalachian region. We believe that mountains, forests, and waters have intrinsic worth and also provide recreational opportunities, spiritual renewal, and ecological and economic health for the region.
