W&OD Rally on 9/6

[Kevin O'Brien]

Hi Alexandria friends,

As many of you are probably aware, Dominion Energy has 'grand' plans to clear-cut along a 33-mile stretch of the W&OD Trail, making for a much less pleasant experience for all trail users. Dominion paused its chainsaws in the face of widespread public backlash but only temporarily; we need a permanent solution/agreement that balances the park experience with Dominion's maintenance needs.

In response, a group of organizations including WABA will be hosting a rally on Saturday Sept. 6 @10AM to tell Dominion: NO MORE CLEAR-CUTTING! And we invite y'all to join us!

Where: Vienna Town Green (I know a little far from Alexandria, but it's a straight shot on the W&OD!)

When: 10am-11am

RSVP: Let us know you'll be there!

Whether you are able to join us or not, you can also add your name to WABA's petition to able to stay in touch about trail developments!
