Peaks For Parkinson's

By Steve Zind
My good friend, Jocelyn Hebert, lost her father to Parkinson's this past winter. As a tribute to him and an awareness/fundraiser for the Vermont chapter of
national Parkinson's group, she'll hike the Long Trail solo this summer. She'll be sponsored by individuals and businesses and meet up with day hikers and
supporters along the way that have been affected by Parkinson's.

Here's a link to her fb page: http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=336143068643
