What is backpacking ben?
Backpacking Ben is our new initiative to stay connected with the Gasper River family when we can’t physically be together. We’ve always said what happens here better not stay here, so we are setting out to see old friends and make new ones! If you’ve ever heard of Flat Stanley, you may be familiar with a flat friend visiting in the mail. For those who are interested, Backpacking Ben will arrive in the mail with some Gasper goodies to share. You can bring Ben along to your school, youth group, extra-curriculars, etc. and take pictures for us to share on our social media. After a week, you can send him back to us so he can continue his journey. If you would like Backpacking Ben to visit, fill out the form below. If you have any questions, please email us at gasper.program@gmail.com Follow along on social media to see where Ben will visit next!
