Mt. Airy ex-dancer will hike 2,633 miles to combat hunger
Six days ago Jason Henschen, 27, left his apartment in Mt. Airy, his job at the High Point Café, his stint as a substitute teacher at Plymouth Meeting Friends School, his friends and family (who live in Ohio) to embark on a five-month, 2,633 mile hike out west to raise money for the Coalition Against Hunger. Sitting at the Chestnut Hill Coffee Company a week before his departure, Henschen was looking forward to his journey, the second of a three-part series he has set his sights on. His mother, Sharon, was in town visiting helping him get ready. This isn’t the first time she has seen her son off on an adventure. In 2006, Henschen hiked the Appalachian Trail, a 2,175-mile trek, by himself.
