COUNTY ADMINISTRATOR’S COMMENTS
Mr. Stegmaier was pleased to announce a new initiative called Experience Chesterfield,
spearheaded by the Department of Communications and Media in partnership with
Economic Development and Parks and Recreation. Experience Chesterfield can be
found online at ExperienceChesterfield.com and features several three-day itineraries,
focusing on history, family fun and outdoor adventure. The itinerary format is user-
friendly for those who are unfamiliar with the area and offers suggested routes while
showcasing some of the county’s greatest assets – from the 1611 Citie of Henricus to
the region’s only zoo, to historic Bon Air to miles of hiking and biking trails.
Mr. Stegmaier was happy to report that the James River Advisory Council had a
successful regional river cleanup last Saturday in the midst of threatening skies and
occasional showers. More than 600 volunteers among 14 sites picked up trash along
the James River and many feeder creeks or streams, working to make the river and the
community a cleaner place. The cleanup included sites as far west as Lynchburg, and
as far east as Newport News. In Chesterfield, there were two sites – Dutch Gap Boat
Landing and Falling Creek Ironworks.
Mr. Stegmaier announced the annual Governor’s Technology Awards were presented to
honorees in nine categories at a special ceremony at the Commonwealth of Virginia
