Virginia Unveils New State Park Website

Virginia has just unveiled a new website that promises you the Great Outdoors and anything you want to know about it, just a click away. Charles Fishburne reports.

Announcer:  Welcome to VirginiaOutdoors.com.

It is a massive source of information.

Elton:  The website has virtual tours of every state park trail, in addition to all kinds of other information that visitors might need.

Joe Elton is Director of State Parks.

Finch:  The hottest concept today in travel and tourism can be summed up in one word, and that’s staycation.  Staycation basically means vacationing at less expense by staying close to home.

Johnny Finch is President of the Virginia Association for Parks.

Dominion Virginia Power has been a major financial contributor to the website, which has content and links to Game and Inland Fisheries, The Virginia Horse Council, Master Naturalist Program, Wildlife and Birding Trail, all for a new type of consumer.

Announcer:  By providing a high level of information and interpretation through rich new media, we can reach out to a Youtube generation!

Check it out, at www.Virginiaoutdoors.com.
