Kiptopeke State Park Campground Road Project

By Sam Sweeney

Kiptopeke State Park closed its campground early this past fall much to the chagrin of our fall patrons. Work is progressing with most of the drain pipe installation complete and road grading work starting soon.

Gerald Moore and Sons of Exmore, VA were awarded the contract and have moved towards improving our campground roads. Funding for this project came from the 2002 Government Obligation Bonds voted and approved by 70% of Virginia voters.

Surprised guests will be intrigued by the changes they see and the smooth ride they’ll find. The work is centered on the first two roads in the electric and water area of the campground. Paving should take place in early spring with the campground re-opening in April 2010.
