Blue Ridge Parkway projects that need your support
May 24, 2023
Each year, the Foundation works with the National Park Service to determine where donors can make the greatest impact on the Blue Ridge Parkway.
Thanks to your gifts, the new roof at the former Bluffs Restaurant at Doughton Park is complete! The facility at milepost 241 near Sparta, N.C., is now one step closer to reopening. The concrete shingles were replaced with Enviroshake shingles, which are easier and less costly to maintain.
In the summer of 2019, individual gifts, grants from the N.C. General Assembly and Appalachian Regional Commission will be used to repair the interior of the building and purchase new restaurant equipment.
