Though the skies constantly threatened rain Saturday, the annual Wintergreen Ascent Bike Race went off perfectly! Our Paul Purpura grabbed these fantastic shots as the bikers headed up the mountains in Nelson County.

Anyone in the Nelson area knows this biker, Martin Versluys, co-owner of The Acorn Inn B & B rides each year in the race.

The annual race held each Spring consists of 18 different categories including men, women, junior, along with different age categories.

After a minor fall and scrape earlier, this young man had to push his way up a very steep part of the course on Black Rock Overlook.

After years of planning, Margaret Clair saw her vision come true Saturday morning while kids played at Rockfish Valley Community Center. The playground Margaret envisioned years ago was officially dedicated this weekend. “It’s just fantastic and there are so many people that helped to make this a reality,” Margaret said in a brief, informal ribbon cutting ceremony behind RVCC. We have been following the playground’s progress here in earlier posts.

Youngsters play on one of the many pieces of playground equipment now installed at RVCC just north of Nellysford, Virginia.

Though many others helped make the playground a reality, Margaret Clair was the driving force and she is the reason RVCC now has the playground. Margaret, we thank you too for such a wonderful addition that will be enjoyed for generations to come! Excellent job!
