Saturday June 20th Grand Opening & Solar Day Celebration


Davis Riverwalk will be co-sponsoring the grand opening of its Blackwater Overlook building and two new tenants on Saturday, June 20th. Highland Prospects and Friends of the Blackwater will have displays, specials and demonstrations. Highland Prospects is an outdoors clothing and gear provisioner previously located in the old bank building. Friends of the Blackwater is an environmental advocacy group primarily focused on protecting the WV highlands, Blackwater River watershed and the Blackwater Canyon. There will be music, snacks and good community fun for all. Terra Alta farmer James Stemple plans to have his first greens of the season available for purchase. And - since the following day happens to be the first national Solar Day (and the first day of Summer), we will be introducing the first photovoltaic array in Davis -- it's right on the roof of the building! PowerInMyBackYard will be on hand to discuss solar and other alternative energy sources. Join us for the opening of new and expanded locations for these exciting enterprises in Davis; enjoy gossip and a coffee at Hypno; explore the expanded outdoor selections from Highland Prospects; learn what Riverwalk and you could do with solar energy; learn what Friends of Blackwater is doing to protect our natural treasures. Hang with your neighbors and celebrate a new day in Davis. And, oh yeah, hope for sun!
