Richmond, who has traditionally been described as a city with struggling public schools, high poverty and high unemployment, isn’t the picture you think of when you hear West End.

The winter time was a rough one for Lewis and Clark. They struggled to find food and diseases impacted them greatly. Malaria was the biggest disease that affected Lewis and Clark.
