Wilderness Trekker Message Center

Welcome to message center where every member is free to kindly express themselves, sell items relating to the club's activity, gather up support for an idea, invite a member to join you on a special event, see what other people are involved in, send out notices about your experience, even include events not sponsored by our club, but might be of interest to paddlers, hikers and cyclist.
The Leadership may also use this as additional means of communicating to the general membership of the club; although the home page will be the frontline source for the most current news and briefs.

Paddling Partners
Don’t have a boat, but you would like to go on a paddling trip? Here is a place to post a message and hopefully you can find a buddy to join you. Maybe you have the day off tomorrow and would like to go paddling. If you post a message here you may find a buddy to join you.

Hiking/Backpacking Partners
Same format as Paddling Partners

Biking Partners
Same format as Paddling Partners

Information Exchange
Here is a good place to share and request information with other members. For Example: You are looking to buy a backpack and would like to know which brand and model may be a good one for you to choose. Example: You are looking for a good place to go hiking and paddling in the Florida Panhandle area. Post a message and learn from other member’s experiences.

Messages posted will remain for at least 30 days. After 30 days all messages may be moved to a message archive (depending on space limitations) and can still be viewed. Any messages that are posted by you can be deleted or modified by you at any time.

First Time Users: When you open the WT Message Center for the first time you will see that the screen is divided into two windows (upper and lower) The first time only you will see a message in the lower window informing you that an applet add-on is being downloaded and it will take about one minute. If it ask you to acknowledge the addition of the add-on please do so. This will enable you to read the messages and view the categories. The upper window has a menu and if you scroll down you will see the categories. Double click on any category to view the messages. Just click on any message and it will appear in the bottom window. To reply to a message click on reply in the lower window. Another window will open asking you for a password (you make one up), Name, and email address. There will also be a place to type in your message. If you wish to post a new message (not a reply to a previously posted message), you will do so from the top window. Click on post message and a similar window will open up requesting the same information as the reply message.
