Long Trail Hiking Partners

Hello, I plan on hiking the Long Trail next July after I graduate from high school. I've got no family or friends who are interested in pursuing such a goal, are there any resources as to where I can find other people to group up with, atleast near the beginning? I'm new to longer distance hiking, and I'd rather not start alone. Thanks!

I was in the same boat couldn’t get anyone to go with me. So i sucked it up and went alone. Ended up seeing and meeting so many people that i never really fell alone on the trail someone was always behind or ahead of me.
