About the Dismal Swamp Visitors Center: A unique hydraulic arm bridge that spans the Dismal Swamp Canal allows access to the Dismal Swamp State Park. Boaters along the canal have 'right of way' which may cause some delay in pedestrians crossing the bridge. The visitor center/exhibit hall, restrooms and parking are handicap accessible.
This video documents the dedication of the 7,050-square-foot visitor center and the ceremonial opening of the Dismal Swamp State Park. It is North Carolina's 32nd state park to open to the public.
The speakers in this video are:
- Joy Greenwood, Superintendent - Dismal Swamp State Park
- Timothy L. Aydlett - N.C. Parks and Recreation Trust Fund
- Col. Dionysios Annios, Commander - U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, Norfolk District
