On Wednesday, June 5th, hiker and speaker Jeff Alt will give a presentation at the library, which is geared for children ages 5-12, titled National Park Time Traveling Adventures, which will be held at 6:00 p.m.
Jeff Alt walked the entire Appalachian Trail, over 2000 miles, and inspired an annual charity for people with developmental disabilities dedicated to his brother, which raised over half a million dollars. His journey is chronicled in his award-winning, best-selling book, A Walk for Sunshine.
Through slides, skits & narration, Jeff Alt will share National Park time-traveling adventures based on his book series, The Adventures of Bubba Jones. He will share interesting facts about some of our most cherished national parks, take you behind the scenes, and explain how each book was created.
