Fall 2023 Dust Off Duncannon

Help spread the word for the 2023 fall “Dust Off Duncannon” event.

They’re raising funds to do cool things like this “mural park” in the town square:

The Perry County Economic Development Authority is currently looking for businesses and locals to help “sponsor” various things like a food dish, a raffle basket, or tailgate games. If interested, please send the following information to: Perry County Economic Development Authority, (Memo: Tailgate), 9 West Main Street, New Bloomfield, PA 17074.

We hope you enjoy this event and help improve Duncannon, PA.

New Info in AT Kiosk on Inn Road

It’s hard to take in all of the information found in this little image, but the 40″ tall version greeting visitors entering town from Cove Mountain is much easier to read when seen in person. Thru-hikers and visitors can quickly learn about Duncannon’s unique geography, history and relationship with the Appalachian Trail while referring to a map displaying local resources. We tried to fit as much interesting information into the limited space that was available.

Please leave a comment to let us know what we got right or what we missed.
