Bent Mountain Chapter

 

 

We are pleased to welcome the community of Bent Mountain, Virginia, as the location for the newest of FRIENDS community-based chapters all along the Parkway.
 
Focused on connecting the Parkway to the community and the community to the Parkway, this strong group of leaders held their organizational meeting in early February. They elected Eldon Karr as chairperson, Jenny Chapman as communications chief, and Steve Hanes as volunteer coordinator. 
 
Also present and committed to serving are others pictured (left to right) in the accompanying photo:
