A Pilgrim Chapter in Atlanta?

I met today with Chris Sanders, a 2002 Pilgrim living here in Atlanta. We are discussing the idea of starting a chapter of the American Friends of the Camino to raise awareness about the Camino here in the metro Atlanta area.
Possible ideas include:
  • Presentations to civic groups about the Camino and our experiences
  • Promoting the Camino as a long distance hiking destination
  • Providing consulting and advice for potential pilgrims from the Atlanta area
  • Events for pilgrim alumni to gather and share
  • Book exchange on the Camino

If you are interested in joining us or have suggestions, please respond to this post with your ideas and contact information. I have added a link to Chris' website because it is chock full of great information.
