FAYETTEVILLE, W.Va. (WVDN) – Today, U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) traveled to Fayetteville to participate in a ribbon-cutting ceremony for the new Bike Skills Area, which is part of a larger development plan for outdoor recreation activities surrounding the New River Gorge National Park and Preserve.
“The New River Gorge National Park and Preserve is one of West Virginia’s crown jewels and a place I have been proud to support for many years. I commend the work of the New River Gorge Regional Development Authority, Fayette County leaders, and countless others for capitalizing on the national park designation, working hard to create unique outdoor recreation opportunities for all ages, and for their commitment to enhancing visitor experience. I look forward to continuing to champion New River Gorge for years to come,” Senator Capito said.
