Julie Queen Announced As New Manager Of Appalachian Trail Museum

3/2/2021

0 Comments

 
The Appalachian Trail Museum has selected Julie Queen as its new manager, effective March 1. The Museum Manager is responsible for all Museum operations. The Museum is dedicated to the Appalachian Trail and is the only full-fledged Museum dedicated to hiking in the U.S. In April, the Museum will begin its 12th season.
 Julie is a long-time resident of south-central Pennsylvania and has devoted her life to public service and the not- for- profit community, most recently working for the Girl Scouts. She has also worked for the Pennsylvania Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (DCNR) and the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture and served in the Peace Corps.


For the last five years, Julie has been very involved with the Appalachian Trail including a 2016 thru-hike, serving as a Potomac Appalachian Trail Club ridge runner and as an A.T. community ambassador for Boiling Springs. She is a graduate of Millersville University of Pennsylvania.
The 2021 season will be an eventful year for the Museum as it unveils two of its most significant exhibits. 2021 is the 100th anniversary of A.T. Founder Benton MacKaye’s article which called for an Appalachian Trail. This year the A.T. Museum will display an exhibit of MacKaye’s study, the Sky Parlor. This will be the first time these artifacts will be put on exhibit. The artifacts include his desk and many of his personal hiking books.
Also, the Museum will introduce an interactive map of the A.T. This will be one of the most ambitious exhibits the Museum has mounted with a comprehensive view of the A.T. including many physical, geographical and cultural features of the A.T. and surrounding areas.
 
As the new manager of the Museum, Julie will be responsible for recruiting and training volunteers to staff the Museum, running the Museum store and supervising collections as well as all other phases of Museum operations.
