In this episode, we chat with Clark Jones, one of many behind rvaMORE, a nonprofit comprising a diverse community of trail enthusiasts dedicated to advocating for access to trails around Richmond VA. Whether they are mountain bikers, runners, boaters, hikers, or nature lovers, the common thread is their commitment to parks and everyone who finds joy within them. With a track record of over 15,000 volunteer hours, the creation and maintenance of 75 miles of trails, and a staggering 2,000,000 users annually, rvaMORE's impact is more than just trail upkeep. If you've ever wondered about the influence a grassroots organization can have on the health and well-being of a city, then this one's for you!
