"Rediscover Rockford” program at Rockford Methodist Church, Historic Village of Rockford.
The Remember Rockford Preservation Society presents their annual “Rediscover Rockford” program at Rockford Methodist Church, Historic Village of Rockford. The program begins at 10am with guest speaker, Nancy Reeder. Nancy is a Storyteller and an Appalachian Trail, Pacific Crest Trail, and Mountains to Sea Trail hiker and has many “Tales from the Trails” to share. Nancy’s storytelling performances come directly from her own experiences. She also does an impersonation of Grandma Emma Gatewood, who without a tent, sleeping bag, or maps, thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail by herself. Nancy brings Emma to life through costume, Emma’s memories, and observations. This will be so interesting! Nancy will be followed by traditional music at 11am. A BBQ Lunch will be available beginning at noon. Plates are $12 per person. Rockford Tours in the Village begin at 1pm. Program is FREE and open to the public. For more information and to RSVP, contact Hannah at 336-469-4601 by phone or text.
