Excerpt from WVUToday:

"West Virginia University’s outdoor recreation experts are hard at work developing world-class outdoor infrastructure, expanding outdoor opportunities and using the Mountain State’s outdoor assets to advance the economy. These efforts are mission critical at the Brad and Alys Smith Outdoor Economic Development Collaborative, and now, the OEDC team is poised to broaden its efforts with the help of a change agent who’s fired up about the collaborative's work.

Andy Williamson, the newly minted director of outdoor community development for OEDC, comes with an impressive background, vast tool kit, and extensive connections in the outdoor industry. He has worked in these spaces for decades, and OEDC’s mission includes many of the same goals he’s helped countless other communities achieve before his arrival in Morgantown."
