Welcome to Newport News, where great things are happening! First off, we have not one, but TWO golden anniversaries to celebrate in 2016... Newport News Park is celebrating its 50th birthday, as is the Virginia Living Museum!
Did you know that Newport News Park was developed in 1966 from a
watershed that was created around Lee Hall Reservoir to protect the cleanliness of the water? At 7,711 acres, Newport News Park is one of the largest city-run parks in the United States. Visit the park for some gifts of nature and other treasures you’d never expect to find in the third largest city in Virginia!
The Virginia Living Museum is celebrating its 50th anniversary with a year of special
events and exhibits. Highlights include a display of larger-than-life animatronic bugs through mid-April, followed by a hugely popular dinosaur exhibit returning in the summer. In the fall, a permanent outdoor “Dinosaur Discovery Trail” will open.
Returning in mid-March for its second year is the Newport News One City Marathon. Runners will begin their journey in the stunning setting of Newport News Park. From
there the next 26.2 miles will include the very best Newport News has to offer, finishing (and fittingly so) at the Newport News Victory Arch.
Stay with us in Newport News and enjoy everything we have to offer. Let our knowledgeable travel counselors help you plan your stay in our hometown by calling 888-493-7386 or visit us online at www.newport-news.org

To burn off calories:We would suggest Newport News Park.
Not only is there a nice trail for a walk/jog, you can rent paddle boats and bikes.
Date night:City Center at Oyster Point is an “all-in-one.” Dinner and a movie at Paragon Theater (who wouldn’t like to catch up on the latest movies while relaxing in leather recliners, eating snacks) and then ending with a nice stroll around the fountain… so romantic!
Romantic photo op:Krystel: The Lions Bridge. What an amazing waterfront sunset view.Inesha: City Center. The fountain is awesome. You might even get lucky enough to get a picture with the giant “LOVE NN” letters… Virginia Is For Lovers!

Insider Tips Meet the
Todd FamilyJason and Dianne Todd live in the “Warwick on the James” neighborhood of Newport News. Jason, president of Flat-Out Events, is an avid runner and lover of all sports. Dianne, a paralegal, is taking a break from the office to be a stay-at-home mom to their two sons, Sean and Joel. Passionate about nutrition and natural health, Dianne is enrolled in a health coaching certification program.
Outdoor fun:We love getting out in our neighborhood, which is family-friendly and has lots of old charm! We enjoy going on walks and having an occasional picnic at Lions Bridge. As a runner, Jason visits areas all over the city by foot, especially Hilton Village, Mariners’ Museum Park, City Center and Port Warwick. And, last but not least, sledding near Lions Bridge when it snows is a great time!
Rainy day fun:Keeping two young kids occupied is always important, so Patrick Henry Mall is a nice way to kill some time. Looking through the toy aisles at Toys “R” Us and Target is always on the top of our son’s list. We also enjoy children’s story time at Main Street Library and Barnes & Noble.
Eating out:Nawab Indian Cuisine is at the top of our list for its excellent lunch buffet. Indulge, a new French bakery in Hilton Village, is also delicious! Aroma’s coffee shop is a go-to for relaxing with a cup of coffee and catching up on some work. Finally, we are so excited about the new Tech Center! Thrilled to have one of our faves, P.F. Chang’s, in town.
Family fun:Every July 4th, we love to walk down to the Hilton Pier and join other neighborhood families to watch the fireworks. We’re also looking forward to seeing a play at the Peninsula Community Theatre. We enjoy summer concerts at City Center, Port Warwick and Mariners’ Museum Park. Dianne loves going to the local farmers’ markets at CNU and City Center in the spring and summer.
Special occasions:We like to dine at the quaint Circa 1918, which is right down the street from our home. Bonefish Grill is another nice restaurant for special occasions. Because Jason’s job takes up many weekends, a favorite post-event Monday tradition is breakfast at Cracker Barrel. For visiting friends and family:Usually it’s a nice meal at one of the restaurants we’ve mentioned. Lions Bridge and the view of the James River is a nice way to end our day.
Don’t miss:The One City Marathon, of course!
To relax:For Jason, it's hitting the streets for a run. He’s been really happy to see all of the new sidewalks going in around town. As a family, we enjoy long walks around our neighborhood and love seeing families out and about. We love to grab an ice cream treat at Maggie Moo’s and take a stroll around the City Center fountain.
Birthday party fun:Birthday parties at My Gym in Kiln Creek and Rebounderz are always a good time. We also like to meet up with our Hilton Presbyterian Preschool friends for parties in the neighborhood.

Ed and George’s Recommendations:For seafood? Mike’s Place (now called Rick & Libby’s) for the best corn
muffins, fish, oysters, shrimp etc., and the burgers are great, too!

For a holiday meal?Schlesinger’s Chophouse has great buffets during the holidays with a wide selection of choices.
For nighttime fun? Musicals, dance performances, shows, symphonies, etc., at the Ferguson Center for the Arts.
For shopping?TJ Maxx, Tuesday Morning, Stein Mart, the Jefferson Flea Market, and, of course, Walmart.

For visiting friends and family? Ferguson Center for the Arts, Peninsula Fine Arts Center, The Mariners’ Museum and Park/USS Monitor Center, the Virginia Living Museum, shopping at all the new stores, fishing in the James River, and eating crabs on the deck of the Crab Shack.
Museums?The Virginia War Museum and The Mariners’ Museum, which unveils our maritime history from the Battle of the Monitor & Merrimack to the history of Newport News Shipbuilding to a great collection of small craft from around the world!
Best time to visit?Spring, summer and fall – the weather is beautiful and the temperatures are mild … for fishing!
Why Newport News? Access to the water and fishing, the magnificent views of the James River and the Hampton Roads harbor, the history of our city and the shipyard, along with its convenient coastal location. It’s a beautiful city with so much to see and do!
