DAVIS RENAISSANCE
The Davis Renaissance was formed a couple of years ago by local business
persons, residents, and town officials. The group's purpose is to work
toward the revitalization of the Town of Davis by preserving it's
history, cultural heritage and other resources that make the Town of
Davis unique. The group works in cooperation with the Mayor and City
Council to preserve the character of Davis, including the building,
physical features, setting, history and the people. The goal is to
increase economic and community development, tourism and pride in our
community.
In November of 1997, the group formally formed the Davis Renaissance,
Inc., a non-profit corporation. The board consists of officers and
seven members at large. There are committee chairs for Recreation,
Marketing, Commercial/Residential and Historic. The group meets
formally each month on the first Thursday
at 6:30pm at the SawMill Restaurant.
In the past, the Davis Renaissance has sponsored several town
beautification projects, installed pole signs on the main street
highlighting our four seasons; assisted with the remaking of the Town's
Christmas Decorations; worked with the Tucker County Rotary Club, and
Alpine Festival Association; sponsored the WVU Landscape Architecture
Class which developed a comprehensive plan for the town which included
enhancement of the existing architecture, recreational opportunities and
the plan for the River Front Park; facilitated the construction of the
Skate Park; assisted with the renovations of the Community Center in
Davis; and have continued with year-round fundraising events.
