Kiewit Infrastructure South Co. participated in Trail Days in Damascus, Virginia, as a Community Sponsor, supporting one of the largest annual gatherings of the Appalachian Trail community. The event attracts an estimated 20,000 to 25,000 people each year and celebrates the trails, outdoor recreation and small-town culture that make Damascus a destination for hikers and cyclists from across the country.
Members of the Virginia Creeper Trail Restoration project team and the U.S. Forest Service connected with residents, visitors and trail enthusiasts during a public event at the Damascus Trail Center. The team shared updates on the ongoing Virginia Creeper Trail restoration project and answered questions from attendees.
As restoration work continues, events like Trail Days help foster meaningful conversations about the future of the Virginia Creeper Trail and its importance to Damascus and the surrounding region.
