Program:
Cheryl introduced Julie Queen. She is the manager of the Appalachian Trail Museum (the only museum solely dedicated to hiking in the country!) We learned some interesting facts about the museum. Did you know it is at the midway point of the AT? Has three floors open to the public? Has more books on hiking than any other museum in the country and has volunteer opportunities! Julie included a picture of Nimble Nomad and our own Nan
Reisinger, who are the oldest thru hikers. Julie finished her talk with pictures of her own outdoor adventures! A fun presentation.
