Jennifer's enthusiasm, inventiveness and dedication have produced dramatic results in the past two years as Dan River Basins Rivers and Trails Project Manager.  Working under a grant from the Harvest Foundation, Jennifer's accomplishments have been innovative and exciting, providing enhanced recreational opportunities for our community and river basin and providing new opportunities that have never been available in our area.
Just a few of the many, many accomplishments in the past 2 years:

  • 2 new river access on the Smith River
  • Preserving the historic Burgess Family Cemetery on Old Mill Road
  •  Development and implementaion of the "Adopt a Trails Program"
  •  Completion of the Fieldale Trail Phase II
  • The Fieldale Iron Bridge historic preservation Project
  •  Smith River Fest 2008- 2009

Although Jennifer will be greatly missed as a member of "Team DRBA", we are excited that she has chose to remain in Henry County and will still be a very active part of the goals we are working on together in our region.  Jenn will be continue as member of the Rivers and Trails Board and we look forward to working closely with her in the future.  We wish her the best of luck at her new position.
