Join Friends of the Rappahannock (FOR) and explore the legacy of Hunter’s Island

Saturday, April 16, 2016 @ 10:00 am - 3:00 pm

Explore the legacy of Hunter’s Island with its owner, local architect and history enthusiast Mary Ellen Wheeler from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. We’ll meet at the FOR home office and ferry over to the island in canoes. Learn more about Capt. John Smith, who explored the Rappahannock River in 1608, and the Native Americans who greeted him. There are ruins of old mansions on the island which make for great photo opportunities. Bring a bag lunch and water bottle for a scenic picnic. Minimum age is 8 years. The backup date is the next day. The cost is $30 per individual and $90 for families, or $24 and $72 for FOR members. For more information call (540) 373-3448.
