A.T. Museum to open on 5 June in PA.

[Jack Tarlin]

This should be a wonderful event.

Any Whiteblazers out there planning or hoping to attend?

I would, however I'll be in Wellsboro, PA at the time for their annual Susquehannock Trail Performance Rally race. (http://www.stpr.org/) (http://www.stpr.org/)

I am missing it by one week. I have a section hike starting June 10 that will start at PenMar, so I expect to visit the museum just one week after the opening.

The article I read said that Grandma Gatewood was expected to attend. It'd be cool to see her :)

I signed up for the 6 mile hike in the morning of to get the patch :)

Even though the Subaru Splash (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NRiZENNOAEU) is no more you can still hike it (http://www.hike-mst.org/Maps/Black_287-11-04-06.pdf) if you like...

yea, I might just be up to doing that. Maybe I'll go and get a camp site at the park if it is opened. I'll decide for sure as we get closer to the date.

It looks like a camp site cost:
$15/ night for a resident
$17/ night non-resident
max 2 tents per site

$4/ night if you backpack in
$5/ backpack non-resident


price:

I'm unlikely, but others including our club president will be attending.

I am sure Jack that you will be happy that I correct you in that the event will not be probably a great event but that it will be a great event. It is Larry's dream finally coming to realization. It will, to my understanding ,come down to the wire that everything will be ready, but I am confident that Larry is on top of it.
If you cannot be there, you will have wished that you could!

P.S. Special camping rates available for the event. Register for that when you arrive!

register with a AT Museum member and that may result in a better rate! Either way it is worth it!
