** MEDIA ADVISORY: Gov. Justice to hold bill signing for Summersville Lake State Park tomorrow at 11 a.m.
------------------------------------------------------------
CHARLESTON, WV – Gov. Jim Justice will hold an event tomorrow to sign HB 124 ([link removed]) , which officially establishes Summersville Lake State Park ([link removed]) . Upon signing, the site of the new park will be open to the public.
Gov. Justice announced West Virginia's 36th State Park earlier this week ([link removed]) . Summersville Lake State Park will be located on the northern shore of the state’s largest lake in Nicholas County and will be a premiere outdoor adventure park in one of West Virginia’s most iconic spots.
The 177-acre park is perched on the northern shore of the state’s largest and most picturesque lakes. The lake has been a national and international destination known for its clear blue waters and unique rock formations since opening in 1966. Estimates show more than 1 million visitors enjoy watersports there each year. The new park, just off US-19, will immediately open the lake to additional recreational activities such as hiking, biking, and picnicking. The new park also includes an additional parking lot for those coming to enjoy the incredible views and world-class outdoor recreation.
The site is slated to be developed through a public-private partnership and the amenities will make it the greatest outdoor adventure park in the country. Planned amenities include additional climbing and bouldering opportunities, hiking and biking trails, water activities, aerial sports, camping, cabins, and more.
