The James River Association wants to thank hospital workers for their time and service by offering them a break to find solace and relaxation on the river through our James River Relief program.
James River Relief will provide paddle trip & rental options to doctors, nurses, and other hospital staff on the frontlines through partnering with several regional outfitters.
