Chesapeake, VA. , February 3, 2010) – Summer beach going and finding a place to park at the waterfront maybe over for now, but protecting public access is year round work. VCAN works to protect and enhance public access to
Virginia ’s coast for everyone year round. Our 501c3 non-profit is now in its fourth (4th) year of making a difference for public access throughout
Virginia ’s coastal zone. As your public access advocate, we need to hear from the public and inform our membership to further our shared
Virginia public access goals.

Our non-profit concluded its participation in Norfolk's Recreation Master
Plan Charette for the City's long range Parks and Recreation Plan today.
VCAN was a part of the Water Access Committee. Other committees included
Community Center and Recreation, Bikes and Trails, Theraputic Recreation,
Athletic Facilities, O&M, and Community Character.
All of the committees produced short and long range visions that will be
part of the overall plan. It was amazing the amount of quality information
that was garnered over such a short period of time.
The focus of the Water Access Committee was to create and build a water access location inventory for the whole city and identify opportunities for increased access and improvements.
