Get on the Bus! and see Asheville's French Broad and Swannanoa Rivers

Asheville -- The RiverLink Bus Tour offers answers about Asheville's past, present and future: What is the Wilma Dykeman RiverWay Plan and what does it hold for Asheville's future? Who is Peter Demens and why is he world famous but not known in Asheville? Where is the RiverLink Meditation Labyrinth?

The next tour will be Thursday, Feb. 17, when the public is invited to tour the French Broad and Swannanoa Rivers with RiverLink. In an effort to make parking easier for participants, the tour departs from the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce parking area now.

  

This is an opportunity to see the improvements that have occurred and hear what is coming over the next several months and years to make our rivers better places to work, live and play. You will learn some local history and visit some streets and neighborhoods you have never seen before.

The bus will meet you at the Asheville Area Chamber of Commerce (36 Montford Avenue)at noon and return you there around 2 PM. This tour is free for RiverLink members. Non-members cost $15 per person. Lunch is not provided but you can bring your own. Reservations are required. Please go to www.riverlink.org to make your reservation online or call 828-252-8474 ext. 11.
