Next Destination Speaker Series: Walking the Camino de Santiago--The Portuguese Way with Andy Niekamp
Join Andy Niekamp as he narrates his trek on the Portuguese Way of the Camino de Santiago, from Porto, Portugal, to Santiago, Spain. This second most popular Camino route boasts stunning coastal views, vibrant cities rich in history, quaint cobblestone streets, shrines, ancient churches, stone crosses, hiking trails, and friendly locals. The 19-day, 220-mile, pilgrimage photo journey follows Andy and his hiking partner along the multiple, and sometimes confusing, routes of the Portuguese Way, including the Litoral, Coastal, Central, and Spiritual routes. The trek concludes on Spain's western shore at Finisterre whose name means "end of the earth," as the Romans believed it was. Today, the Camino Finisterre has a reputation as a place of endings and new beginnings. This presentation will inspire you to embark on a Camino de Santiago journey of your own. This free event is set for 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, Jan. 15 at the Springboro Performing Arts Center, 115 Wright Station Way.
The City of Springboro Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) partner with the Franklin-Springboro Public Library to present the Next Destination Speaker Series. All programs are free, begin at 6:30 p.m. and include a 60-minute presentation with plenty of time for questions after.
