Friends of the W&OD Trail

Description

Established in 1991, the Friends of the Washington and Old Dominion Trail (or Railroad Regional Park) -- FOWOD for short -- is a citizen-driven organization dedicated to protecting and improving the W&OD Trail. It was re-established as an advisory body of the Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority in 1997. The purpose of the FOWOD is to support and enhance the Washington and Old Dominion Railroad Regional Park (W&OD) as a recreational, environmental and historic resource through volunteer efforts in fund raising, promotion, educational programming and maintenance.

The governing body of the FOWOD normally consists of 15 northern Virginia residents from a number of jurisdictions on or near the trail who have a variety of recreational interests in the W&OD trail. The current members of the FOWOD Board are:

Section 1 - The election of Board members shall be held at the annual meeting of the Friends and shall be confirmed by the NVRPA Board. Board members shall serve a term of two years. Officers of the Board shall be elected annually to serve from May 1 through April 30, subject to confirmation by the NVRPA Board. The Board members elected at the 1997 meeting shall serve through April 30, 1999 and seven Board members elected at the 1998 meeting shall serve through April 30, 2000.
