I received this email last week. I'm not sure if I'll be in the area or not at that time but I wanted to pass the info on.

Greetings soon to be or already AT hikers,

A group of us in Virginia are wishing you all the best on your adventure and hope all that you wanted this journey to be will be that and more.

We loosely call ourselves Trail Angel Friends of Loon (TAFOL) and have started a tradition of trail magic along the AT near where we live and we wanted you to be aware of the dates in case you will be in the area the time that we are putting on a feed!

Below is the information. If you are a fast walker and will be past these spots before the date would you please put the info in the register? Last year we fed about 25 hungry hikers!

Hope to see you there! PLEASE PASS THE WORD!

Peace and cheers,

Trail Angel Friends of Loon
