Volunteer Weekend (In Lieu of Summer MRNR)

Dear Rally goers,

We are very disappointed to announce that we have decided to cancel the Summer Naturalist Rally in order to focus our capacity on the construction of the Center. With the center completion date set for the Spring of 2022, we are planning a Grand Opening event during the 48th annual Spring Mount Rogers Naturalist Rally!


We have planned a volunteer weekend in place of the Rally, August 20-22. If you are interested, we have a variety of projects including trail building, bridge building, boardwalk construction, painting and staining, and habitat development. The BRDC staff will be working all weekend, and we will be providing a group dinner on Saturday night to support the efforts. If you are interested in assisting, please email info@blueridgediscoverycenter.org or give us a call at 276-388-3155.


Again, we apologize for this change in plans and we are already missing our usual MRNR group, but we are looking forward to having the Rally in grand fashion in 2022!

Thank you for your continued support and we look forward to seeing you soon!
