National Park Service awards grant for Blue Ridge trailhead
The National Park Service has announced the awarding of a $54,000 grant to rehabilitate White Falls Rock trailhead and visitor parking area at milepost 18 on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It was one of five projects from around the United States selected to receive grant money.
“This grant program will enable our visitors to better appreciate both the national parks and the national trails that touch or cross the parks through new connections, better information systems and upgraded facilities,” said Dan Wenk, acting director of the National Park Service in a statement.
Nine more project grants are to be awarded later this year.
