Manchin Tours River Town Aviation and Aircraft, American Rescue Plan Funded Projects in Parkersburg

Parkersburg, WV - Today, U.S. Senator Joe Manchin (I-WV) toured River Town Aviation and Aircraft's newly-renovated hangar at the Mid-Ohio Valley Airport as well as three projects funded by the American Rescue Plan in Parkersburg, West Virginia.

"West Virginia has accomplished so much for the advancement of aviation, and I couldn't be more optimistic about our future," Senator Manchin said. "I am always so proud to see our West Virginia airports and flight programs, like River Town Aviation and Aircraft, expand and prosper.

"I'm pleased to see the incredible improvements that have been made to the Southwood Pool, the City Park Baseball Field, and the Fort Boreman Water & Sewer Site," Senator Manchin continued. "The investments made by the American Rescue Plan are reinvigorating the city of Parkersburg and making this town a better place for all who live and visit here. I remain dedicated to fighting for West Virginia's priorities and will do everything in my power to ensure we receive the resources we need to continue strengthening the Mountain State's communities."
