Crop Walk

The Crop Walk planning meeting is Saturday, Sept. 11 at 5 p.m. at Grace Church in Vineyard Haven.

Bert Marshall, the walk’s regional director and singer-songwriter behind We Could Walk Together, will be the guest speaker.

The Crop Walk began 60 years ago as a means of raising funds to combat world hunger. It provides money for food, water and the transportation of these resources to those in need. This is the 20th annual walk on the Vineyard.

The walk is scheduled for Sunday, Oct. 24 and this year’s fund-raising goal is $20,000. For details, call Mary-Jean Miner at 508-696-8589.
