Minnesota Chapter

The Minnesota Chapter of American Pilgrims serves central Minnesota, centered on the Twin Cities metro area.

Broadly stated, the purpose of this local chapter is to keep participants connected to the Camino and to introduce new people to the phenomenon. We plan to accomplish this in a number of ways, such as social events, hikes, mentoring future pilgrims and serving as a local host for hospitalero training through American Pilgrims.

Contact chapter coordinators Carrie Sandgren, Aaron Rodriguez and Chuck Johnson at Minnesota@americanpilgrims.org for more information or to be added to the chapter email list.

The chapter schedules walks, talks, potlucks, maintains a lending library of Camino-related books and much more!
