Bungee Jumping And Morrisey’s Executive Orders, This West Virginia Morning

Listen

On this West Virginia Morning, an abandoned quarry in Harpers Ferry will soon become a lot busier. That’s because a Canadian company is bringing a new bungee jumping site to the Old Standard Quarry this spring.

Participants can drop more than 150 feet and graze the water down below. Reporter Jack Walker spoke with Orin Anderson-Barwin, general manager for The Great Bungee Company, about the project so far.

Also in this episode, Gov. Patrick Morrisey announced eight executive orders Tuesday. Caelan Bailey reports on the policies, and Morissey’s administration priorities.
