Join the Friends of the Robbins Library on Tuesday, June 12th at 7:00 pm for a special presentation at the Robbins Library of “It's Not About the Hike” with Nancy Sporborg and Pat Piper.
We all have our own mountains to climb. Your mountain may be a 4,000-footer in the White Mountains. But it could also be going to college, getting a job, bringing up children, caring for aging parents or dealing with an illness. Maybe your mountain is reorganizing a business, tackling a difficult project, losing weight or starting an exercise program. It's your own personal mountain and it is hard.
“It's Not About the Hike” is a presentation that will bring you into your heart, lift your spirits, and inspire you to climb that next mountain in your life. It highlights the journey of two 50 plus year old non-hikers who one day decided to climb the 67 mountains in New England over 4,000 feet. Nancy Sporborg and Pat Piper are two ordinary women who went on an extraordinary journey over the mountain summits and into their hearts. This is the story of what they found inside themselves as they hiked over 1,250 miles to the tops of over 190 mountains through all four seasons. This talk is a multi-media presentation including movies, music and photographs. It is both humorous and touching, as the speakers share about their personal lives in a way that makes the message and learning universal. This program is free and open to the public.
