River District Canal Cruises April 30, 2011

Enjoy 40-minute historically narrated tours of the James River & Kanawha Canal along
the historic Canal Walk in one of our covered boats, which accommodates up to 35
passengers and departs on the hour from the Turning Basin, between 14th and Dock
Streets in downtown Richmond’s River District. Richmond’s canals were first begun in
1789 after George Washington lobbied the General Assembly to proceed with his vision
of a canal and turnpike system that would connect the harbors of the east to the trade
and market opportunities in the west. For more information call 804-788-6466 or 804-
