Program To Highlight Kilimanjaro Climb

The Lampeter-Strasburg Area Woman's Club will hold a meeting on Tuesday, April 23, at Wesley United Methodist Church, 40 W. Main St., Strasburg. The presentation will begin at 7 p.m.

Cathy Thorn will share her experience of climbing Mount Kilimanjaro, the highest mountain in Africa and the highest free-standing mountain in the world at 19,340 feet. Thorn has accomplished this feat two times while over the age of 60. To prepare, she walked miles while carrying a 25-pound pack on her back and worked out on an elliptical.

The presentation is open to the public.
