October 2008 marks the 40th Anniversary of the Appalachian Trail as the first National Scenic Trail, designated by the National Trails Act of 1968.
In celebration of the Trail and as a fundraiser for the Appalachian Trail Conservancy, the ATC is hosting its first-ever Asheville event on Friday, October 3, 2008.
Kick Your Boots Off, A.T. Birthday Bash will be held at Pack Place in downtown Asheville from 6 - 10 on the 3rd.
We’ll have live music from Asheville-based band One Leg Up, fun A.T. activities, food and (adult) beverages included as part of the admission price for our guests, plus the opportunity to bid on awesome silent auction items and vie for hot raffle items.
Tickets are $20 if you RSVP in advance to rsvp@appalachiantrail.org or by calling 828-254-3708. Otherwise, tickets are $25 at the door.
I hope you can join us for the party!
