AARRC rides the Craggy Mountain Line

 Thanks to the generosity of Rocky Hollifield and his group of dedicated volunteers, the AARRC was carried along an interesting perspective of the Riverfront in Woodfin, NC, via the Craggy Mountain Rail Line.  Woodfin has some lovely riverfront parks as well as an amazing small business incubator started by Bill Goacher & friends, who also helped nurture the River Arts District in Asheville, NC.  



We passed the old "Crusher" plant that the Town of Woodfin has successfully started to remediate with the help of NC DENR & Asheville Greenworks volunteers... was the largest tire dump in WNC
We stopped on the parcel of property donated to the Town of Woodfin by the Silver Family of Silverline Plastics in 2011.  The Town of Woodfin is hosting a planning session for its newest riverfront park on Monday, October 28, 2013 from 6:30 to 8pm @ the Woodfin Town hall 90 Elk Mountain Road.  Please come join in the conversation!
