Hands Across the Appalachian Trail – Sept. 22 10:00 a.m. to noon

Sep 14, 2018 | Events, Fossil Fuels

Humpback Rocks Visitor Center on the Blue Ridge Parkway

JOIN HANDS to protect our land, communities and the Appalachian Trail from the unnecessary and unwanted onslaught of natural gas pipelines.

This event features the Appalachian Trail Conservancy’s vision to “connect the human spirit with nature – preserving the delicate majesty of the Trail as a haven for all to enjoy.”   Everyone should have the opportunity for that experience.

JOIN HANDS with us to ensure the Trail remains protected!

Event plan: sign making, speeches, music by Jan Smith, food and refreshments     We will stretch our joined hands for a photo shoot.  Bring signs or make one when you arrive – we will provide materials.

Directions:
Take Interstate 64 to Exit 99 at the top of Afton Mountain. Follow signs on Route 250 to Blue Ridge Parkway.  Turn right onto Blue Ridge Parkway. Travel 5.8 miles to Humpback Rocks Visitor Center and Picnic Area.

Sponsored by Appalachian Voices, Sierra Club Virginia Chapter, Wild Virginia, Friends of Nelson, Allegheny Blue Ridge Alliance, CCAN, Piedmont Group Sierra Club and other groups.
