Thru-hiker patch?

[1hiker]

After reading STICKING IT TO YOU IN 2008 from the newsletter, I got to thinking. The AMC has a 4000 footers patch, AT hikers have a AT thru-hiker patch, the Long Trail has a patch too.

Is there a CT patch of some sort?

I don't know if there would be a huge demand for it, but something like a t-shirt or baseball cap might help revenues a tiny bit and provide some free advertisement. It could be low a low overhead operation if you could link the store to one of those DIY clothing stores like cafepress.com.

We currently do not have a thru hikers patch for the CT. It is something that we are considering, as well as t-shirts and baseball caps. We have tried the shirts in the past without a whole lot of success, but it is certainly something we are going to consider as we grow. Thank you for your thoughts.

A thru hiker patch is a wonderful idea. All the well known trails have them.

This was thrown around at our last Board meeting and we voted to design one. An excellent idea and as soon as we can come up with one, we'll post it here and also on the Bulletin Board. We welcome all of your input and just to let you know, we're working on the T-shirt and Caps too.
