 About the Richmond 34 Legacy Weekend:

 

On February 22, 1960, 34 Virginia Union University students were arrested following a peaceful sit-in protest at the whites-only lunch counter of Thalhimers Department Store in downtown Richmond. The "Richmond 34" sit-in ultimately led to the integration of Thalhimers and influenced legislation in the Civil Rights Act of 1964. 

The Flying Squirrels began hosting a two-day "Richmond 34 Legacy Weekend" in 2021 to celebrate the contributions of the Richmond 34 to the Civil Rights Movement as well as other local leaders both past and present who have made contributions in the push for social justice and racial equality.

During the Richmond 34 Legacy Weekend presented by Capital One, the Flying Squirrels will wear these special Richmond 34 Legacy jerseys, which will be auctioned with proceeds going towards Flying Squirrels Charities & the Richmond 34 Legacy Scholarship Fund.
