The first Town Hall Meeting encouraged conversation leading to the submission of Senate Bill 737 in last year's Virginia legislative session. The bill almost made it out of committee. There is hope for passage of a bill in next year's legislative session that will legalize boating on some of Virginia's streams that have been "off limits". Hope to see many faces at the Town Hall Meeting. Please pass this information along to anyone you think might be interested in attending.
