RI Football Club and Stadium

The Rhode Island Football Club (RIFC) is a group committed to bringing men’s professional soccer to Rhode Island as part of the USL Championship. RIFC is a club that represents all Rhode Island and provides community and entertainment through the shared enjoyment of professional sports. The Stadium at Tidewater Landing will be a 10,500-seat, multi-use stadium and home base for the Rhode Island Football Club,   The stadium is part of a larger public-private partnership in downtown Pawtucket that will revitalize long-vacant land in Pawtucket, turning it into a place for people to live, shop, work, and watch Rhode Island’s only professional soccer team compete.   

 

 

History of The Baldwin Loop Walking Path 

The Baldwin Loop Walking Path, established in 2017 by The Empowerment Factory, is the first walking path in Pawtucket. It is highlighted during the Healthy Living Community Event each year and has since become a beloved community asset. The path winds through the area surrounding Baldwin Elementary School and features artwork created by community members and local students. 

Residents are encouraged to use the path for exercise and engage in various activities accessed through QR codes placed along the way. Since 2017, the Baldwin Loop Scavenger Walk has been an integral part of the Healthy Living Community Event, promoting both physical activity and community involvement. 

In 2024, The Empowerment Factory will debut new artwork along the path, featuring historic locations throughout Pawtucket. QR codes will provide information on each location, enhancing the educational aspect of the walk. The scavenger walk, scheduled from September 1 to September 7, promises to be a highlight of the 2024 Healthy Living Community Event.
