Chagrin Documentary Film Festival 10/2-6 UPDATE
See the Emmy-nominated documentary, TRAIL MAGIC: THE GRANDMA GATEWOOD STORY on Saturday, October 5, 2019, at 3:00 p.m. at the Chagrin Falls Documentary Film Festival at The Federated Church, 76 Bell St., Chagrin Falls. Tickets are $12.00 and can be purchased at the Festival Office 440-247-1591 or online.
This film tells the true story of Grandma Emma Gatewood who was the first woman to solo thru-hike the 2,050 mile Appalachian Trail in 1955 at the age of 67 after raising 11 children and surviving domestic abuse! As if that wasn’t enough, she went back and did it two more times (becoming the first person — man or woman — to hike it three times) and she hiked the 2,000-mile Oregon Trail in 1959. A founder of Ohio’s Buckeye Trail, this remarkable woman’s life will inspire you!
