The afternoon session will be conducted in the Memorial Build- ingin Hinton from 1:00 p.m. to 3:00 p.m. and will focus on that section of the Parkway from -1,64 to Hinton. The evening sessfons will empha- size the southern segment from Hinton to 1-77 and will be held in the Council Chambers, Princeton Municipal Building from 7:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m. The purpose of the workshops is to obtain public input in the devel- opment of the master plan and land management system for the New River Parkway. When finalized, they will serve as the primary pol- icy statement and guide to develop- ment within the parkway corridor. The second workshop in Hinton will focus on more specific issues than addressed in the initial ses- sion. Topics scheduled for discus- sion include the following: 1) trash and litter, 2) driveway access, 3) right to hunt within the corridor, 4) boat docks and boat launches, 5) camping , 6) wetlands, 7) water quality, and 8) visitors center. The workshop in Princeton will fosuc on the southern end of the Parkway and will be more generalized in its approach. This session will address issues such as where the Parkway should begin, whether it should have limited access, and what ac- tivities shoul d be encouraged within its corridor. The community workshops pro- vide an excellent opportunity for interested citizens to voice opinions and contribute ideas. Anyone inter- ested in the Parkway and the devel- opment of tourism in the area is urged to attend. For more information, contact the Parkway Office at 466-0000. BLUEGRASS MARKET, INC.
