GODFATHER’S TRIP
Saturday/ Sunday: Dates To Be Announced
OK since I call you guys my “godkids” I want you to come on a two – day backpacking trip on the Appalachian Trail. It’s a chance to get away from the computer, the basketball court and your cell phone so that you can experience the outdoors for a couple of days.
RAIN or SHINE!
Harper’s Ferry Backpacking Trip -
We’ll begin our 10 mile/ two day “AT” hike at Gathland State Park on Saturday at 11:30 and walk for approx. 3.6 miles to the Edward Garvey Shelter. For those who may not want to sleep in a tent, if we get there early enough you may be able to sleep in the shelter (it’s first come, first served).
The shelter does not have running water, it is a .4 mile hike to the nearest water source. There are also campsites near the shelter and the prive’.
More information will be available here or you can call (717)943-5414.

Due to space limitations and the fact that there will already be people on the trail, we will only have to limit availability to 12 people. We only ask that you make a donation to GO WEST!!! USA so that we can continue offering our program to the youth of our area.
I want all of you to come so if you think you can make it, please fill out the form below.
