Clair Tappaan Lodge Mission Statement
To support the Sierra Club by increasing awareness of the environment, fostering a sense of community, increasing the spirit of volunteerism, and nurturing eco-conscious conduct by providing a wide variety of programs, rustic lodging and wholesome meals.

Clair Tappaan Lodge Committee
The Clair Tappaan Lodge Committee is a group of volunteers charged with:

  • marketing to increase year round use of the Lodge
  • planning and implementing programs and work parties for the Lodge and associated properties
  • publicizing the lodge and its activities both within the Sierra Club and to the media
  • volunteer recruitment
  • setting policy and goals for the Lodge

The CTL Committee, in collaboration with the Outings Department and Miramar, is committed to improving the financial health of Lodge operations.

Volunteering
Clair Tappaan's success is due largely in part to the dedication of our volunteers. There are many fun and rewarding ways to help. Let us know what special skills and interests you have. Please contact Diane Boyer or Olivia Diaz or Liz Wise, the CTL Committee Co-Chairs for more information.

Outings, Outdoor Activities and Program
The CTL Committee is looking for individuals interested in proposing and leading outings and outdoor activities and lodge programs.

We welcome proposals for a variety of lodge based activities and events. Opportunities range from wildflower photography and nature writing workshops; to snowshoeing and white water rafting.

Become a CTL Certified Leader and lead lodge-based outings.

Leaders need to be Sierra Club Members, at least 18 years of age, have current certification in First Aid and complete our Leader Training Program. CPR certification is strongly recommended.
