PictureRyan Seltzer
Ryan Seltzer has been appointed to the Board of Directors of the Appalachian Trail Museum. Ryan, of Boiling Springs, PA, is the Natural Resource and Land Stewardship Manager for Appalachian Trail Conservancy. He is one of two representatives of ATC serving on the Museum Board.
Ryan joined the ATC in 2014 with a background in natural resources management. He attended James Madison University, in the heart of the Shenandoah Mountains, where his passion for the Appalachian Trail began. In 2009 he completed a three-part flip flop thru-hike.
Ryan now manages the Appalachian Trail Corridor Stewardship Program in the Mid-Atlantic region. The Trail corridor averages 1,000 feet in width and provides permanent protection for the Trail. This public investment is home to numerous threatened and endangered species, unique and rare habitats, and breathtaking vistas. Volunteers in this program provide critical monitoring of the corridor lands, ensuring protection of the resources for generations to come.

A.T. Museum Announces Postponement of 2020 Banquet, Date, Venue and M.C. For 2021 Banquet

8/18/2020

0 Comments

 
The Appalachian Trail Museum announces that the 2020 Appalachian Trail Hall of Fame Banquet has been postponed to 2021, due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2021 Banquet will be held on Saturday, May 1, 2021.  The Banquet will return to the U.S. Army Heritage and Education Center, located at 950 Soldiers Drive, Carlisle, PA.  The evening will begin with a reception at 6 pm, with dinner to follow at 7 pm.
​
The M.C. for the 2021 Banquet will once again be Sandra “Sandi” Marra.
​
PictureSandra "Sandi" Marra
Sandi became President & CEO of Appalachian Trail Conservancy in 2019.  Previously, she had been Chair of the Board of ATC since 2013.  Sandi is a past president and honorary life member of Potomac Appalachian Trail Club and has been an A.T. maintainer for more than 30 years. She served on the ATC Board of Directors from October 2008 until becoming President & CEO and had chaired the membership and development and strategic planning committees.  She previously served on the ATC Board of Managers from 1999 through 2005.  Sandi retired as chief operating officer of St. Coletta School of Greater Washington after a career in human resources and administration.
​


Larry Luxenberg, founder and President of the Museum said:  “We’re sorry that we have to postpone our 2020 Banquet. But these are unique and challenging times. We are hopeful that we’ll be able to return to our annual tradition in 2021. We’re also thrilled that Sandi has agreed to again be the M.C. of our Banquet.  She’s been a tremendous supporter of the Museum and Banquet since the very beginning.”


The 2021 Banquet will honor the Tenth and Eleventh Classes of the Appalachian Trail Hall of Fame.  The Tenth class was chosen earlier this year. The selection process for the Eleventh class will begin with nominations from the general public.  The Hall of Fame selection committee will then select the class early next year and it will be announced in April.


Jim Foster, Chair of the Hall of Fame selection committee, said: “We’re thrilled to once again partner with the Army Heritage and Education Center for our 2021 Banquet.  The USAHEC is a resource of contemporary and historical materials that honors Soldiers, past and present.” 

Tickets to the 2021 Banquet will be available starting this winter.  Opportunities to sponsor the Banquet will also be available.  Check the Museum’s website www.atmuseum.org or email atmbanquet@gmail.com for more information.
