Vigils on the Date of ExecutionVigils for the victims and the condemned will be held throughout the state. Scroll down to find a location near you. Please contact VADP if you are interested in coordinating a vigil in your area. GREENSVILLE CORRECTIONAL CENTER
Execution site - Jarratt, VA DIRECTIONS: The Greensville Correctional Center is located in Greensville County, not far from the town of Jarratt in Sussex County. Jarratt is at exit 20 off I-95, 55 miles south of Richmond, and 20 miles north of the North Carolina border. After taking exit 20 turn right at the end of the exit ramp if coming from Richmond (turn left if coming from Emporia). The first stop sign is at the intersection with US 301. There are convenience stores at the intersection, which have rest facilities (there are no rest facilities for us at the prison). Turn left (south) onto 301 and go eight-tenths of a mile. Turn right on the state road 397, Ridge Road (there is a marker for Greensville Correctional Center). Cross the railroad tracks and you’ll soon see the prison gate. Park in the field on the right hand side. Bring a flashlight and bug repellent. Those needing or willing to provide a carpool, please call us at 1-888-567-VADP. ALEXANDRIA
