Joe Walker's home that he grew up in is approximately 1/2 mile down Route 18 from Joe Walker Elementary School itself (towards Washington, PA).

A Time of Giving at Joe Walker Elementary

Students at Joe Walker Elementary School in the McGuffey School District collected over 250 canned goods and other nonperishable food items to help the City Mission stock their food bank with the hope that all could enjoy a bountiful Thanksgiving meal.

None of this would have been possible without the involvement of the entire Joe Walker community, but especially Mrs. Hoge, the secretary at Joe Walker, who has been orchestrating this program for over 10 years.
