September Program Set for Clearfield Community Life-long Learning Institute

Frenchville native Scott McKenzie takes a moment at the conclusion of his second thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail. McKenzie became one of about 700 people to have hiked the entire trail more than once. He began his trek in Georgia on March 10 and ended in Maine on Aug. 3, 2018. He was able to complete the hike a month faster than his last trip, where he had to stop hiking temporarily due to food injuries and stomach ulcers. (Photo used with permission)
