RCS facilitated the November 5, 2009 Virginia Garden Club field trip at Woolen Mills. To help make the walking tour more personal, RCS invited former Charlottesville Mayor Kay Slaughter and Bill Emory, Charlottesville Planning Commission and Woolen Mills Historical Society to share their knowledge of community (both live in Woolen Mills neighborhood) with the Garden Club members who came from all over the state to attend their annual meeting.
