Family Membership to Hoffler Creek
Bordered by Hoffler Creek in the city of Portsmouth, Virginia, this 142-acre wildlife haven sits at the mouth of the James River, connecting to the Chesapeake Bay through the safe harbor of the Hampton Roads. Steeped in history, the creek is named for William Hoffler, a Revolutionary War militia captain. Colonized in the early 1600s, the area was valuable to farmers and fisherman who relied on the James River and channels of the Chesapeake Bay for trade and commerce. During the Civil War, Confederate soldiers encamped in the coastal forest witnessed the famous battle between the Monitor and the Merrimac.
Package includes a family membership to Hoffler Creek Preserve and 2 kayak rentals. [Item #41]
