Please join us for our next Basic City Evening on Thursday, March 20th at 6pm. We have invited an engaging panel of guests to discuss the economic implications the James River Park Systems presents as a platform for adventure recreation.

Josh Stutz, our Executive Director, will moderate the evening and will guide our guests through a revealing discussion on local adventure recreation. Richmond is considered a unique destination city with such opportunities as paddling on a river with Class IV rapids, mountain biking and trail running on the most technical trails on the east coast and outdoor rock climbing all within the city limits.

Adventure recreation is a growing industry. The James River Park System is the landscape in which to bring adventure sports, its participants and economic benefit to our area.
