Active Southern West Virginia seeks to improve the health of southern West Virginians by increasing opportunities for physical activity.
Bob Matson has been a amazing asset as an Active SWV Community Captain for the people of southern West Virginia by leading group hikes, Full Moon walks, and an Annual Fire Fly Walk.
Before Covid-19, Stephanie Hill was attending the REFIT at Central Headstart in Beckley 2-3 days a week for the last year and a half. Active SWV Community Captains have tried new and inventive ways to keep participants engaged during this time by providing resources and virtual programs.
Active SWV’s Virtual Kids Run Club and Regional Fun Run event wrapped up Memorial day weekend after six weeks of activity.
This June we are featuring Scarbro, WV as the Community of the Month. Scarbro is located in Fayette County in close proximity to New River Gorge recreation destinations, rail trails, Plum Orchard Lake, and offers community programming including Active SWV Gentle Yoga at the New River Health Scarbro location.
Active Southern West Virginia encourages the residents of Nicholas, Fayette, Raleigh, and Summers counties to include biking in communities as a way of staying active.
Due to circumstances around Covid-19, Active SWV made the decision to defer the Inaugural New River Gorge Rim to Rim 10K to 2021. In lieu of that event, we are hosting the New River Gorge VIRTUAL 10K with a walk and a run option.
Even though remote work and flexible schedules have been cited as desirable among the working class for decades, very few employers have offered the option until now.
The Rim to Rim Race is a running road race from one side of the New River Gorge to the other. This bucket list event will provide runners with breathtaking views throughout the course in Fayetteville, the adventure sports capital of West Virginia.
