The Illinois Trekkers invite you to walk this volksmarch. We ask all walkers to bring 2 cans of soup per person. One can of soup will be added to a pot for poor man’s soup pot and the other can will be donated to the local food pantry. Warm bread will also be served. Desserts will be available for a nominal donation. Please join us for a great walk and a meal among friends, old and new!!!!
