Sharing Our Values with the

Community M

azama President Steve Hooker recently said “the Mazamas are more aspirational than ever.” This aspiration is for the Mazamas to be the most important organization in our region for everyone

who wants to play in and protect the mountains.

To do this we are working through a series of projects that will enable us to provide extraordinary service to our members and volunteers, while responding to the needs of our community.

Last year was an exciting, direction-setting year for the Mazamas in pursuit of this goal. We made solid progress on our strategic plan, which builds on the strengths of our core programs and seeks to improve our service model to be more modern, relevant, and scalable.

In 2015 we completed needs assessments for our information technology systems, stewardship and advocacy programs, and leadership development systems. We also restored professional management to our library and historical collections, launched robust

youth outreach programs, and added capacity to our development department.

Our members continue to amaze our broader community with their passion and enthusiasm. Through our core programs our volunteers and partners are working every day to share our values of responsible recreation, safety, and stewardship with everyone in the Pacific Northwest.

We are working to build a community of people who value and protect our public lands. Today, the integrity of our public lands is under attack. By growing our stewardship and advocacy programs we can help ensure that our public lands safe and healthy for future generations.

We are also working hard to get kids outside. Like us, people across our nation

are concerned about how little time kids are spending outdoors compared to even a decade ago. Our youth outreach programs, family programs, and the Mazama Mountain Science School, started in 2015, are all about getting kids outside and making sure that future generations develop relationships of care with the mountains.

For more than a century, the Mazamas have been a community leader in the Pacific Northwest.

We continue to focus on building and organizing a community of people who share our interests, and today we are giving back to our community in new and broader ways than ever before.

We’re able to do all of this work because of the incredible support we receive

“

For more than a century, the Mazamas have been a community leader in the Pacific Northwest.

from our volunteers, donors, members, and partners. We have more members, more annual donors and more overall support than we’ve ever had before. Because of you, the future is bright for the Mazamas!

Thank you for your support.

Mazamas is working to provide more opportunities to get people outside and support public lands.

In order to pursue this vision, in 2014 the Mazamas adopted a revised strategic plan that laid the foundation to reinvent the Mazamas’ service model to be modern, relevant, and scalable. The plan consists of a series of priority projects that build upon opportunities that were identified by

Mazama leadership and members over a multi-year process.

The plan has been organized to provide clear priorities over a five-year period. With the aim of engaging the community and tackling longstanding barriers to growth we can create more experiences in the mountains.

Giving Back to the

Places We Love A

s Mazamas, we believe in protecting natural areas so that future mountaineers, rock climbers, hikers and backpackers can enjoy the same experiences that we cherish.

Today, more people than ever are climbing and exploring our favorite wild places, which means that we must be proactive stewarding and giving back to trails and crags.

The lack of a unified voice speaking to decision-makers at all levels of government and the outdoor recreation industry makes it even more important to bring community leaders together to work on a more coherent conservation and outdoor recreation policy agenda.

That’s why in 2015, the Mazamas focused on building a foundation to become a leader in conservation, outdoor recreation access, and stewardship.

Volunteers and staff created a Stewardship & Advocacy Plan to guide the work creating a more successful environmental and recreation movement in the Pacific Northwest and nationally.

In 2015, our volunteers contributed over 1,000 hours of work to help maintain climbing and hiking trails in the Pacific Northwest and beyond. Our stewardship work focused on repairing eroded tread, fixing rock stairs and switchbacks, and removing overgrown vegetation and cutting downed trees.

Mazamas and local climbers also helped to re-bolt and replace fixed anchors on climbing routes at French’s

Dome, Broughton Bluff, and Beacon Rock.

We also advocated at the local, state, and national levels to protect mountain recreation areas and strengthen conservation efforts. For example, we joined the Owyhee Canyonlands coalition to support permanent land protection in Southeast Oregon, continued our work with the Outdoor Access Working Group to improve access to special use recreation permits required for volunteer groups like ours, and advocated for climbing access at Madrone Wall and Beacon Rock.

“

The Mazamas play a key role in protecting climbing access in the Pacific Northwest. As an affiliate local climbing organization of the Access Fund, their ability to garner support from the Portland climbing community and bring together dedicated volunteers to steward climbing areas is vital to protecting the areas we love.

Get People Outside M

azama activity and education programs volunteers continued to lead the largest centralized mountaineering training program

in the United States and one of the most active outdoor programs in the country. They achieved all of this despite a low snowpack, that created challenges for ski classes and climbing programs, A notable expansion of offerings in 2015 was the Families program, which offered Families Mountaineering 101, an entrylevel program that teaches youth and their families basic mountaineering skills.

From little steps to big steps, across education and activity programs volunteers continue sharing their time, skills, and passion to help hikers, climbers, and students get outside and discover their potential.

long with expanding Mazama programs in the mountains, a priority Strategic Plan Project is to revitalize the stewardship and sharing of our stories.

The Mazama Library and Historical Collections serves the membership and the general public by maintaining a 8,000 volume circulating collection of new and historic hiking, climbing, and trekking guides, as well as a wide range of books covering mountaineering, the sciences, and biographies. In addition, the Historical Collections are second to none in the west. The archive collection spans roughly 500 linear feet of manuscripts, photographs, and institutional records.

The artifact collection is comprised of roughly 5,000 items, many of which are one of a kind.

Together they provide members, researchers, and climbers access to hundreds of one of a kind documents and artifacts from Mazama and Pacific Northwest history.

In addition to being an informational source for members, in 2015 the Archives and Museum collection hosted visiting researchers looking for information on glaciers, early use of the Columbia River Gorge, and early climbing in the

Cascades, to name just a few. Library and Historical Collections volunteers accessioned over 350 new and used books for the library, roughly 20 feet of new archival materials, and several hundred artifacts. Donations of books, manuscripts, or climbing gear related to Mazama and early mountaineering history are gladly accepted.

Tours of the Library and Historical Collections are happily given, contact the library to schedule a time.

Remember, It’s yours to use!

Youth W

here would any of us be if we didn’t have the mountains in our lives? This is the driving question behind the Mazamas’ efforts to connect kids to the outdoors through our Youth

Outreach programs. We know that thousands of Portland area kids never get to explore the great outdoors, despite the incredible recreation opportunities in our region.

In fact, more than 20 percent of participants in our pilot year of the Mazama Mountain Science School program had never been to Mt. Hood before, either because their families weren’t interested or couldn’t afford to do so. In complement to the Mazama Families Program, which engages kids and their parents in mountaineering, the Youth Outreach program

reaches kids who wouldn’t otherwise get a chance to participate in our sport.

In 2015 fiscal year, we provided two Youth Outreach programs, Youth Climbing Basics class, and the Mazama Mountain Science School. Youth Climbing Basics teaches underserved students how to safely climb and belay one another. Mazama

Mountain Science School (MMSS) brings classrooms of 5thgraders to Mazama Lodge on Mt. Hood for three days and two nights. Inspired by and developed in partnership with Multnomah Education Service District (MESD) Outdoor School, this program connects classroom learning objectives to the mountain environment and recreation.

n 2014, the Mazamas entered into a multi-year budget plan designed to support the strategic projects. A large part of that was a $717,000 grant agreement with the Mazama Foundation that recognized as assets in 2014 and will be drawn down

over three years. While this means three years of planned declines in the balance sheet, the Mazamas is working to spend responsibly to maximize value and diversify funding sources to balance operational budgets.

O

ur volunteers make it happen.

Mazama programs are made possible by the volunteers who

run classes and activity programs, manage major events, and provide administrative support. Thank you!

For many, volunteerism is giving back to the community. For me it is being part of the community. It is the joy of learning and teaching. Through volunteering I have made friendships that are based on trust, knowledge, and the will to explore the great outdoors together.
