A little rain couldn’t stop us from officially opening the Germanna Ford Public Boat Launch on Saturday at our Conservation Celebration, attended by esteemed guests like Orange County District 5 Supervisor Bryan Nicol, partner organizations including Friends of the Rappahannock, Piedmont Environmental Council, and many more, and community members of all ages. The rain couldn’t damper our celebration, which consisted of inspiring speeches, delicious cake and other local fare, flower crowns, history tours, lambs, and even an honorary kayak launch! Thank you to everyone who was a part of this amazing event.
We are so grateful to friends like you, whose support enables Historic Germanna to offer our phenomenal natural, historic, and cultural resources to the public at no cost.
