Join Jon Wolz on Wednesday August 7 at 10:00 am for a Pop-Up Bike Ride from Whites Ferry to Edwards Ferry and return trip. This is a 9 ½ mile ride round trip. Afterwards, for those who are interested, we can eat lunch at White’s Ferry Grill.
Jon Wolz, our local expert on the C&O Canal and leader of our “pop-up” walks, has a long history with the canal. As a Montgomery Blair High School sophomore and Eagle Scout, he had already hiked the entire canal. In 1970, Jon was the Boy Scout chosen to testify before a Senate subcommittee on behalf of the bill to protect the C&O Canal as a National Historical Park. Maryland Congressmen Gilbert Gude and J. Glenn Beall sponsored the bill.
Since 2015 Jon has volunteered as a level walker with the C&O Canal Association (COCA). His two levels encompass the area from White’s Ferry to Monocacy Aqueduct.
