An Appalachia Bluegrass Thank You

Everyone is invited to enjoy a free concert of bluegrass and Appalachian mountain music this Sunday, October 20, from 4 to 6 p.m. It will be held at the Swarthmore Borough Hall Amphitheater and will feature Noggin Hill, an authentic bluegrass, mountain, and country music band, incorporating musical elements of folk-jazz and the American songbook. The concert is a big “thank you” to the Swarthmore community for the assistance given to the Appalachia Service Project (ASP) this year, and the work done in Chavies, Kentucky, making homes there warmer, safer, and drier.

Sign up Now for Swarthmore’s Appalachian Service Trip

This year’s trip from the Wallingford-Swarthmore area to Appalachia has a few spaces open for young people and adults who want to work on making family homes in that region “warmer, safer, and drier.” Our group travels from Swarthmore to Chavies, Kentucky, from July 7 through 13 to help out people in this community in central Appalachia.
