In honor of the barefoot mailmen, we’d like to share this piece of mailmen-themed music from our collections.
On Saturday, more than 500 people in South Florida completed the annual re-enactment of the barefoot mailmen’s trek.
Honoring the “through rain, hail, sleet or snow” creed of mail carriers is what the annual Barefoot Mailman Historic Hiking Trail is all about. The trek revisited — from Pompano Beach to South Beach — honors the mailmen who walked 66 miles to deliver mail before a new post office opened and new roads were built.
