March Gathering

We will be moving the location of the March Gathering to the home of Laura Cronk, 20 min south of the airport. You will need to RSVP "Yes" in order to see the exact address.

• we have removed the attendee limit of 40, as we can accommodate a larger group.

• if you can bring a folding chair or two, that would be great

• if anyone needs a ride or would like to carpool, please post a note in the Comments section

Thanks to Laura Cronk and the others who graciously offered to host this gathering!

You are invited to the Philadelphia Chapter's March Gathering on Sunday, March 26th, beginning at 3:00 PM. The gathering will be at the home of Joseph and Marie Nowak near Washington Square Park in Philadelphia. You will need to RSVP in order to see the address.

The gathering will be pot-luck style. We are asking folks whose last name begins with A – M to bring to bring a beverage (wine, beer, soft drinks, etc.) and those with last names beginning with N - Z to bring a tapas, salad or dessert for about 6 people.

For anyone who is planning a Camino, this will be a great opportunity to meet others who have already walked and ask any questions you may have. Those who have walked since September are welcome to share a brief story. Click below to RSVP. We look forward to seeing you on March 26th!

5 Pics For 5 Minutes - would you like to share some pictures from your Camino journey? We are looking for 3 volunteers to share 5 pictures from their trip. You will have 5 minutes to discuss your pics or share a story. You can bring your pics in print or digital format. Let us know if you are interested! We will give preference to those who have walked most recently.

Camino Book Lending Library - we will be starting a simple "lending library" for Camino related books. We will not keep track of "borrowers" and "due dates", but simply bring any Camino-related book you wish to share and the Chapter will hold onto it. Anyone that is interested can borrow a book and return it to the next Gathering for a future person to enjoy!

Food Collection - we will be collecting and donating food items for Philabundance (https://www.philabundance.org/), the area's largest provider for fighting hunger. If you are able to bring something, it will be much appreciated. Here is a list of items (https://www.philabundance.org/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/Top10-01_600pw.jpg) that Philabundance needs.

Buen Camino!!
