    The 2010 Wild & Scenic Environmental Film Festival

    Wild Virginia was proud to host the 2010 Wild and Scenic Environmental Film Festival “On Tour.” The festival spanned two evenings and two venues in two cities: Wednesday, March 24, at the Vinegar Hill Theater in Charlottesville, and Thursday, March 25, at the Visulite Cinema, in Staunton. A total of 16 films were shown, with an entirely different slate of films at each venue.  Impressive attendance each night added to the success of the event.

    With the help of Blue Ridge Mountain Sports, Mint Spring Frame Shop and 11 other sponsors (see below), Wild Virginia created an evening of fun with exciting and inspiring films, a raffle of premium outdoor equipment, good fellowship, and some conservation news.  Our guest emcees - Paul Wagner in Charlottesville and Bruce Dorries & Steve Grande in Staunton - added humor and insight to the event.
