AMC = Appalachian Money Collectors? (first coined by "Albee" in the 80's)
I used to do lots of volunteer stuff with the AMC, although lately they have some strange political agenda that seems to have alienated myself and many of my hiking/climbing/paddling/biking buddies.  Nonetheless, they offer many excellent programs, and a good method for meeting and hooking up with outdoor-oriented folks.
(... but much better to join the RMC (Randolph Mtn. Club); for $20 a year you won't get discounts on anything, but you will help support the best all-volunteer outdoor organization in the state.  Their backcountry facilities are beautiful timberline cabins, less than $10 a night, always self-service, first-come first-served, and they won't send you away in a blizzard at dark like the AMC Huts will...)
