Mission: RTF is a non-profit corporation founded in 1992 by Charlottesville, Virginia, area citizens with a dream to create a trail system throughout the greenbelt of the Rivanna river and its tributaries. The goal of the foundation is toestablish a footpath encircling Charlottesville generally by following the Rivanna River, Meadow Creek and Moore's Creek. We believe that community-wide trails serve as a resource for nature-related recreation and environmental education by individuals as well as teachers, bird watchers, walking clubs, and other local groups withenvironmental concerns. Well maintained neighborhood trails provide children with a safe setting in which to play, a place for adults to exercise, for neighbors to get to know each other in a new way, and for communitymembers to enjoy the beauty of our riverine areas.
