Belle Isle will have a new destination point! Richmond-MORE and the City of Richmond are planning Bike Skills Course Planned for Belle Isle, under the bridge. Richmond MORE (Mid Atlantic Off Road Enthusiasts) is planning to begin construction of the new bike skills course in April, 2012 and should have it wrapped up by mid-summer. They will need a helping hand from the community via man hours to make this project finish quickly, so please consider heading down to Belle Isle on Sat. mornings to lend one. See the Richmond-MORE site or CCVA's posts for trail building dates and times.

Is Blair Witch Trail Open?

Blair Witch Trail, Open or Closed?

Poor Farm park is in the process of loosing some trails due to the addition of some new soccer fields, so people are tempted more than ever to search for every last trail to hit within the Poor Farm Park territory which is raising the question, "Is the Blair Witch Trail Open to the public?"

The long and short answer is no! All the property that is on the other side of the creek on the lower parts of Poor Farm is private property and should be avoided. There used to be trespassing signs up, but someone has torn them down as of recently.

POSSIBLE LOGGING NEAR POWHITE PARK

Hey All-

I good friend to CCVA an avid outdoors person today notice what might be a real issue to the state Powhite Park.

The long and short of it is that there may be the possibility of logging to property adjacent to Powhite Park. This may have a devastating effect on park itself and we'd like to ask local residents to please take the time to email the City of Richmond to voice concern.

Here is the link to Kathy Graziano's office. Please email or call if you have any concerns. Obviously, the bigger the response, hopefully the more attention it'll get==> kathygraziano.com


Here is a link to the whole thread with better explanations of what it happening in the park.
