Information

Keeka and Micah Grant-Tomlinson thru hiked the entire Appalachian Trail in 2021 and raised more than $30,000 for MANNA FoodBank while doing it. Join us to hear the story of their journey. They will also discuss aspects of community building on the trail, and some of the psychological trials of thru hiking.

They will also explore pivotal guidebooks and resources for people interested in considering a thru hike. Pack Library will have library books and resources available for checkout.

In honor of their efforts to alleviate hunger, we are encouraging attendees to bring a healthy non-perishable item to donate to MANNA FoodBank.
