Always on the lookout for appropriate public
parkland, we partner with with local government agencies and others
to find, purchase and preserve these natural areas. Currently,
DRBA is
working with Virginia to establish a state park in Henry
County that would link to the Mayo River parklands in North
Carolina.
Mayo River State Park,
North Carolina
DRBA volunteers were
instrumental in the establishment of a new state park along the Mayo
River in Rockingham County. The park study area extends to the
Virginia state line, and DRBA has asked Virginia to consider
studying the feasibility of establishing a state park in Henry
County that would link to the Mayo River parklands in North
Carolina.
