Each year, an estimated 3 million people spend time on the 2,180 mile footpath that is the Appalachian Trail. Approximately 2,000 of those hikers attempt to thru-hike, hiking the entire trail in a season. In June and July, when the volume of thru-hikers passing through Duncannon is the highest, we open our doors every week for a free meal.
The spaghetti dinners for our Appalachian Trail Hikers will begin on Wednesday May 13 from 5-7 PM, and will continue each Wednesday through the end of July. Anyone is welcome to come share a meal with our hiker friends. Want to help? There is a sign up sheet in the narthex to provide salad fixings, desserts, greeters, and help with set up and/or clean up. |
