POUND, Va. — Appalachian Voices, the town of Pound and Hill Studios are hosting a community event on Dec. 12, 2024, from 5 to 7 p.m. at the Pound Town Hall. The event will offer local residents the chance to learn more about the plans for the new Pound Riverwalk, a proposed recreation space that will enhance the town’s walkability while providing nature-based flood mitigation solutions.
The event will feature an open house format, where community members can ask questions, view project plans and share their input on the design and features of the Riverwalk. The Riverwalk project aims to create a safe, accessible public recreation space that encourages outdoor activity while simultaneously addressing environmental challenges, such as increased flooding along the river.
All are welcome to attend the event, and attendees are encouraged to bring any questions or ideas they have about the Riverwalk project.
