Parkside Growing Up in Parks It seems like a lifetime ago that my photo was featured on the cover of Parktakes. I was barely 4 years old at the time, and I remember the event – opening day of Lake Accotink’s mini golf course - but I don’t remember having my picture taken that day. My mom framed the magazine cover, which still hangs in our house. When I’m home from college, the photo serves as a fond memory of the many wonderful times we had together as a family visiting parks. Since we lived just a few miles from Lake 2003 Parktakes cover girl Addie Walsh at Lake AcAccotink, we enjoyed many days there hiking cotink and today working at South Run RECenter. the trails or having a picnic or riding the carousel. I also remember there was a cardboard boat race, which continues today. Whether you participate as a contestant or a spectator, it’s great fun. Since my mom worked for the park system, I had the honor of being one of the first kids to “test” the water slides at the Cub Run leisure pool before it opened to the public in 2005. I still remember what a thrill it was coming down that slide with its twists and turns, and it was one of our go-to places on weekends when we had nothing in particular planned. We also enjoyed family time together camping at Burke Lake Park, golfing at Burke Lake Golf Course, bird watching along the boardwalk at Huntley Meadows Park and visiting the baby animals at Frying Pan Farm Park. I also remember having a really fun birthday party at Hidden Pond Nature Center. The staff there brought out the reptiles and provided a really memorable program that kept us all entertained. Of course, I always looked forward to summer camp season. British Soccer Camp was so much fun, I did it for two years, and I still keep in touch with a friend from camp via Facebook. As a high school student, I enjoyed many happy outings with my friends. Burke Lake Park on a nice day is so much fun. We used to take out the pedal boats about 50 yds. and just sit on the lake and make a day of it. We’d also have a picnic and play volleyball or go running on the trails. Sometimes we’d workout at a RECenter. Our parks are great because the activities require little effort in planning and are low- or no-cost. It costs nothing to take a nature walk. These days, I enjoy working at the front desk of South Run RECenter during my college breaks. I like the sense of family here, and I enjoy reliving some of my park memories through the eyes of children who walk through our doors and experience the fun for the first time. Parks will always be a part of my life, and I encourage you to make them a part of yours. The fun times and happy memories will keep you coming back for more.

There’s nothing like a splash of color to get you out of the winter doldrums, and one of the most glorious displays of spring color begins about this time each year when birds migrate north to their summer homes. “The eastern phoebe is the first to arrive,” said naturalist Tony Bulmer. “They’ll show up in February and are among the first signs that spring is coming. It gives you hope that warmer weather is on the way.” Shortly after that, the songbirds, with their brightly colored plumage of gold, red and blue herald their arrival for spring. “The warblers are the prettiest and the largest group,” Bulmer said. There’s the prothonotary warbler, “It looks like a canary,” and the oven bird, “Its nest looks like a little oven on the ground,” and the blackburnian warbler, “It’s black and orange and heads way up north.” Bulmer said. “Last spring, we started to see the ground-nesting birds like the Kentucky warbler and the oven bird return to Ellanor C. Lawrence Park after a 15-year absence, which is pretty exciting.” Bulmer says ground-nesting warblers need to have enough cover to feel safe, and there were so many deer in the park’s woodland at one time, they ate everything growing on the ground. Deer management programs helped cull the herd, the forest floor’s health was restored and the warblers returned home. Bulmer’s experience with birding dates back to his childhood. His father, Walter Bulmer, is a renowned ornithologist, and together father and son would look to the night sky for signs of spring. “Most birds migrate at night by the

stars and rest during the day in trees, Kentucky Warbler and that’s why we’re able to By Andrew C see them,” Bulmer [CC BY 2.0 (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/ by/2.0)], via Wikimedia Commons said. “When I was growing up, my father and I would stand out on the deck on a full-moon night and count the birds as they fly by.” By day, they would look to the trees for glimpses of winged wonders resting on their journey north. “One of the neatest birds to see that is hard to find is the scarlet tanager. They nest here and are very secretive and feed on the tops of trees. When the leaves come out, you hear them more than you see them.” Bulmer says birding is a great activity for families, and it’s something you can do in your own backyard. If you’re a beginner, Bulmer suggests signing up for a Fairfax County park program to learn birding basics. “Start with bird feeder birds,” he advised. “Various types of seed attract different birds; suet attracts woodpeckers.” Bulmer also suggests investing in a good bird book to help with identification and a decent pair of waterproof binoculars. “A lot of birds migrate at dawn and dusk, and binoculars help you see well if there’s not much light,” he said. To make the most of the season, be sure to start looking with the first signs of spring. Otherwise you’ll miss some of the prettiest birds that are just passing through. Birding programs are offered at all Fairfax County Park Authority nature centers. To learn more, turn to the nature section of Parktakes.

First Blooms add Spring to your Stride

Skunk Cabbage Rob Routledge, Sault College, Bugwood.org

Dutchman's Breeches

Just before birds soar northward for the season, another harbinger of spring starts to emerge from the earth. Wildflowers usher in springtime by carpeting the woods with their colorful, breathtaking blooms that are sure to wow you during your seasonal walks. “It’s one of the coolest things on the east coast and one of the largest biological movements in the world, and it all happens at once with this massive explosion of color,” said naturalist Tony Bulmer at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park. “The plants are in the soil, and as soon as the sun gets warm enough, they have to shoot their flowers and get pollinated before the leaves on the trees come. Once the leaves are there, the sunlight is blocked and it’s over. The flowers die off.” Skunk cabbage is usually the first to bloom. “It comes up in January and grows in wet, swampy areas,” Bulmer said. “The fluid inside the plant is warm and can melt snow, and if you break the leaves, it smells like a skunk.” Other seasonal varieties have more delicate names, like pink lady slippers, fairy spuds Trout Lily and trout lilies. “The down-under flowers, like the trout lily, are more sensitive to light and point down,” Bulmer said. “You have to get on the ground to see the flowers.” There are also the Virginia bluebells, May apples and Duchman’s breeches, “They look like little sailor pants.” Several species depict their name, like the papoose flower, which wraps its leaves around the seed pod and Jack-inthe-pulpit featuring a tiny, upright flower spike that looks like a tiny man standing in an old-fashioned, raised pulpit. Nature makes them and you can see them in Fairfax County parks this spring. Bulmer says each park may feature different varieties depending on the environment, and naturalist-led wildflower walks are a great way to learn about various plants, their heritage and their fascinating role in the ecosystem. To find a wildflower program at a park near you, turn to the nature section of Parktakes.

Partnership Brings Rehab and Injury Prevention to Audrey Moore RECenter Whether you want to prevent injuries or need physical therapy for an existing condition, both services are now available at Audrey Moore RECenter. It’s all part of a new Park Authority partnership with INOVA Physical Therapy Center that gives people access to medicallybased rehabilitative and injury prevention services as well as community-based exercise programs all under one roof. “This partnership gives people greater accessibility to physical therapy when they are injured,” said Ben Igwe, one of two licensed physical therapists based at the RECenter. “A traditional physical therapy office has a lot smaller space, and here there’s a gym, basketball courts, fitness room and a pool.” Igwe says all are valuable tools in helping injured patrons get back into the game.

Injury Prevention The RECenter facilities are also valuable opportunities to promote wellness through INOVA’s Sportsmetrics injury prevention program. “As physical therapists, we see a lot of ACL and other knee injuries among young athletes,” Igwe said. In Sportsmetrics, physical therapists analyze an athlete’s movements to identify movement patterns and muscle weakness that could lead to injury. With this information, they teach specialized techniques and training exercises to develop and improve overall strength, agility, balance, flexibility and movement patterns. “We teach you how to properly cut, jump and land to decrease the risk of injury, and as a result, performance increases in vertical leap, agility and speed.”

Golf Performance Plan Golfers can also benefit from INOVA’s Fit to a Tee program at Audrey Moore RECenter. Both Igwe and his colleague, Daren Moat, are Titleist Performance Institute (TPI) Certified Instructors who are trained to help players produce the most efficient swing possible while de-

The goal of each personalized performance plan is to help each golfer obtain the most efficient swing possible based on his or her unique body type while increasing flexibility and mobility and reducing the risk of injury. The Park Authority’s new partnership with INOVA Physical Therapy Center is being piloted at Audrey Moore RECenter. It will be evaluated in one year for potential expansion to other Fairfax County RECenters. To learn more about INOVA’s services at Audrey Moore RECenter or to make an appointment, call 1-877-604-6682 or visit www.inova.org.

Tuesday, Jan. 26 3 – 6 p.m. Saturday, Jan. 30 2 – 5 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 20 2 –5 p.m. Tuesday, Mar. 8 3 –6 p.m. All screenings will take place in the gym at Audrey Moore RECenter 8100 Braddock Rd., Annandale, Va. 22003 Walk-ins welcome; appointments recommended.

Relive History through Virginia Heritage Camp What better way to learn about Virginia history than to experience it? At Virginia Heritage Camp, children get to explore the past from Native Americans to the Civil War and experience life in early Virginia with hands-on activities like churning butter, making crafts, cooking over a fire and drilling with a Civil War soldier. Gavin Fortuno was among the first to sign up for the camp when it was introduced last summer at Sully Historic Site. “I want to take it again because it was so much fun and I learned a lot,” said the 8-yearold Ashburn resident. “We took a rope and made a candle by dipping it in wax and then in water and then in wax again like the settlers did,” he recalled. “The water was there so the wax wouldn’t burn Above: Gavin Fortuno you.” He also reis conscripted into the members working Union Army. with plants. “We Below: Gavin poses got to feel and with a soldier. look at plants that the Native Americans used as medicines and learned that some are still used today, and we also made that smell stuff [sachet] out of plants. [My brother] Danny’s stinked more than mine.” Fortuno remembers the camp fondly as if he were on summer vacation with friends. “We made bread in the kitchen at Robert E. Lee’s uncle’s house, and we made ice cream and played games with sticks and walked on stilts.” He also learned 8

Gavin Fortuno and his brother, Danny, share in the fun at Virginia Heritage Camp. that life in old Virginia wasn’t all fun and games. He knows there was a great difference between life in the spacious main house and the tiny shelter out back. “We went in the little wooden house (slave quarter) and saw what food they got and how tight it was,” he recalled. Perhaps the activity that left the greatest impression on Fortuno was drilling with a Civil War soldier and learning how the war changed life in Virginia. “We learned a lot about the Civil War,” he said. “There was a soldier there and he had a sword and a gun and he fired it for us. He made us Civil War soldiers and gave us fake guns that made noise and taught us how to aim and shoot, but we didn’t get swords.” Now Fortuno has an appreciation for what it took to pass muster and survive during multiple chapters in Virginia history, and this summer he plans to return to begin the second chapter in the journal he wrote during last year’s camp, “to remember Virginia heritage,” he said.

The Park Authority offers a wide variety of summer camps to suit just about every child’s interest from history and nature to sports and performing arts. To learn more, turn to the Camps section of Parktakes. Spring 2016

Kids Have Fun Starting New at Golf Change up your children’s playtime routine by introducing them to SNAG – Starting New at Golf. SNAG uses modified equipment and terminology to help 5- to 8-year-old kids understand golf concepts in a fun and age appropriate way. “SNAG incorporates very large, oversized colorful clubs that really gets kids into the game,” said Pinecrest Golf Course manager Sarah Oberther. “We use tennis balls and Velcro that makes the balls stick to a target, and that really gets the attention of the younger students.” Under the supervision of trained instructors, participants use equipment like launchers (clubs), rollers (putters), launch pads (tees) and more to understand the purpose of different equipment and game essentials. Surprise guests like “Target Man” help make learning fun. “Target man shows up in a Velcro suit with a bullseye on it, and kids take their best shot at him to see if their ball will stick to the target,” Oberther said. “They love it.”

Spring 2016

Once children master SNAG, they can move up to the next of three levels – SNAG Targeting, which further develops skills with games involving target practice and scoring. When they’re ready for the third level, SNAG Transitions, they swap their oversized clubs for regulation clubs and begin learning to play regulation golf. “At this age, some children progress more quickly than others, so some will repeat a class until they’ve mastered the skills before they transition to the next level,” Oberther said. “By the time they’re about 8-years-old, many are ready to progress to the Park Authority’s Junior Golf Program.” Equipment is provided for all SNAG classes, and once children master the skills, they’ve learned a game they can play for life. The Park Authority offers golf classes and individual lessons for all age groups. To learn more, turn to the Golf section.

Volunteer Spotlight A Beautiful Partnership

South Run RECenter and Department of Public Works and Environmental Services

Stop by South Run RECenter this spring, and you’re sure to notice something very distinctive at the entranceway – a meadow. This is the work of a unique partnership between the Fairfax County Park Authority (FCPA) and the Department of Public Works and Environmental Services (DPWES). This past fall, the volunteers armed with gardening tools, sun block and bug spray spent a day planting low-maintenance, native perennials and grasses on the RECenter grounds. The goal for the day was to add plants to provide additional color, structure and habitat and to improve the overall look of the meadow. The native plants were selected not only for their visual appeal, but also for their ability to manage stormwater runoff and support the area’s ecosystem. Native plants have deep root systems that improve soil to hold water like a sponge, and they serve as a natural filtration system that cleans the water before it releases into the creek and eventually reaches streams, the Potomac River and the Chesapeake Bay. Taking one piece of land and turning it into a meadow may not seem like much, but these volunteers know every effort helps. That’s because in heavily developed areas like Fairfax County, impervious surfaces prevent rain and snow from gradually infiltrating into the soil. Instead, stormwater flows quickly off of pavement and yards, picking up pollutants like nutrients, oils and sediment and carries them into local waterways. The rapid runoff contributes to stream and riverbank erosion, which further pollutes waterways and destroys their ability to support wildlife. This is because the pollution depletes the water’s oxygen levels to the point that plants and animals cannot thrive there. Native plant areas like the South Run RECenter meadow help slow the runoff, heal the streams and restore healthy waterways. The volunteers find the partnership rewarding, and patrons have noticed the transformation and have started to ask questions. When they learn about the purpose of the plants in the meadow, they make the connection and better appreciate the beauty of the meadow and the volunteers who work so hard to make a difference in their community.

Under the supervision of trained instructors, Adapted Aquatics volunteers work one-on-one with children and adults who have mental or physical disabilities. The only requirement is a willing heart and a commitment to an eight or 10-week class series. You don’t have to be an expert swimmer - just comfortable in the water. Volunteers work at Oak Marr, Providence, South Run, Audrey Moore and Spring Hill RECenters.

Children receive personalized instruction based on their swimming ability to help them adjust to the water and learn new aquatic skills. Safety skills are also emphasized. Parent participation may be required. 2AAE 6--30 minute lessons--$76 2ABC 9--30 minute lessons--$114 2ABJ 10--30 minute lessons--$127 2AP 8--30 minute lessons--$102 Location Day Time

The Fairfax County Park Authority’s aquatic facilities offer something for everyone. From infants to senior citizens to people with special needs, we serve all levels of swimming ability and aquatic interests. Monthly calendars listing pool hours are available at the Park Authority’s nine RECenters and online at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/ wp-recenter.htm.

Follow guidelines when registering

If it has been a month or longer since the student has participated in a swimming lesson, we suggest repeating the previous course completed. If you have any questions about which class is right for you or your child, please contact the aquatic staff at your favorite RECenter. For safety reasons and to ensure that customers get the maximum aquatic program benefits, the Park Authority reserves the right to remove students from an inappropriate class and either issue a refund or place them, when possible, in a class that better matches their ability level.

Practice and Repetition are keys to success

Each student progresses at a different speed in learning aquatic skills, depending on a number of factors including class attendance, coordination, water familiarity and outside practice. Students often repeat a level several times before developing the endurance and skill proficiency necessary for advancement. Repeating a level does not constitute failure, it is to be expected. Mastering skills takes time, practice and patience.

Practice Healthy Swimming Habits

2AP 2AP 2AQ 2AQ 2AQ 2AQ 2AQ 2AP 2AQ

Accidents in the pool involving vomit or fecal matter require the pool being closed to clean and sanitize the water. Under Health Department standards recommended by the U.S. Centers for Disease Control (CDC), accidents involving fecal matter now require longer pool closure. Prevention is far better than clean up, so please follow the CDC guidelines: • Children (and adults) who have had diarrhea in the last two weeks should not go swimming. • Be sure to use the bathroom before getting into the pool, go on frequent bathroom breaks. For public health reasons, standard diapers cannot be worn in the pool. Children who are not yet toilet trained must wear snug fitting plastic pants and/or a swim diaper under their bathing suit. Waist and legs on plastic pants or swim diapers must be snug enough to contain matter that could contaminate the pool. Please check diapers often, and change them in the locker room not on the pool deck. • Adults who have continence issues should refrain from using the pool. • Shower before entering the pool and after using the toilet. • Avoid swallowing pool water or even getting it in your mouth.

Aquatic Specialty Classes Log Rolling for Beginners

Prerequisite: Must be able to swim 25 yds. and comfortably tread water for at least one minute. Before roads and trains, logs were transported by rivers from forests to sawmills by lumberjacks. The critical 19th century log-rolling skills later evolved into a competitive sport that still exists today. It focuses on footwork, core strength, balance and quick thinking to stay on top of the floating log. The spinning log changes direction in response to your weight placement and footwork. Participants learn to balance and control the log. One piece bathing suit, covered by clean, tight-fitting swim shorts or pants that are easy to move in and come to your knees (such as yoga or bike pants) are highly recommended. 2ALB 4--55 minute lessons--$60 Location Day Time (6-9 yrs.)

Camps • Inclement Weather and Code Red Days:

On rainy days or when substantial rain is expected, some outdoor camps may be cancelled for the day. On code red days, campers will engage in outdoor activities during the day while taking in plenty of water and several shaded breaks. Many of our camps are held outdoors. Please check with the site for more information. • Camp Forms and Check-In: To expedite the check-in process, please make copies of your child’s forms for each camp and each week. Forms are not transferred from one camp to another. • Pool Closures: Please note some of our RECenter pools may be closed in late August or maintenance and cleaning. Contact the RECenter directly for details. • Host-a-Coach Program: We are always looking for families who would like to host a British soccer coach for a week during the summer. In turn for hosting, families earn a free week of British soccer camp. For application and details, go to www. fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/campforms. • Schools and Buses: Many of our RECenters and parks use nearby schools for classroom and gym use during the summer as a respite from the heat. Campers may be bussed to/from our facilities to a nearby school during the camp day. • Camp Cancellations: It is important to register early for camps. Those that do not meet minimum requirements for enrollment may be cancelled.

Helpful Hints for Parents:

• Complete one set of forms and make multiple copies of the completed set. You must turn in forms at each location for each week. • Be sure to put your own name on the Pick-Up Authorization Form as an authorized individual even though you are the one completing the form. • Label ALL of your child’s belongings, including his/ her lunch, water bottle and snacks. • Keep electronics and other valuable personal items at home. • Children should dress in play clothes and sneakers every day. Shoes such as sandals, wheelie shoes, flip flops, clogs and other shoes unsafe for physical activity are not permitted. However, flip flops are allowed on the pool deck and in locker rooms. • For your child’s safety, parents must sign children in and out of camp each day. An I.D. is required at pick-up. Please do not drop your child off at front door.

History

Donor Profile . . . Robert and Marjorie Lundegard, Friends of Colvin Run Mill You’ll find no greater example of the can-do spirit than two local members of the Greatest Generation, Robert and Marjorie Lundegard. These sensational seniors have spent their golden years volunteering and spearheading preservation fundraising efforts at Colvin Run Mill so that future generations can learn from yesterday’s innovation. “Children should learn things from the past - before we had smart phones - and learn the history and technology of a different era,” said Robert Lundegard, a retired federal government science and technology expert who also taught at Syracuse University. “This mill is water-powered and is capable of producing 50 barrels of flour per day when running at full power. It was “the” technology up until after the Civil War, when electricity and wind power were developed.” Marjorie Lundegard, a retired Oakton High School chemistry teacher, started volunteering at the mill in 1988. Her teaching experience has come in handy with visiting school groups. “We use the mill for 3rd grade science field trips connected to simple machines,” she said. “It’s rewarding to feel that you somehow played a

Volunteers Robert and Margaret Lundegard have a long history with Colvin Run Mill. small part in the education of students. Sometimes, we get letters back from the kids thanking us for the experience.” Over the years, the Lundegards identified other ways they could help. They were among the first members of the Friends of Colvin Run Mill when it formed in 1997. Robert, a former president, says the Friends group raised money for lights, “so you can see the mill at night,” and a portable mill called a meadows mill for demonstrations. “We got so many requests to demonstrate milling at other sites, we then had to buy a tractor trailer to move the portable mill, which runs on electricity or can run with a gas engine, which makes noise so it attracts a crowd.” Public awareness is part of their historic

preservation fundraising strategy. With a campaign reminiscent of WWII home-front activities, Marjorie enlisted the community’s help in supporting the cause. “We started on a small scale selling things that were in our closet,” she recalled. “Then we put a notice in the newsletter encouraging people to donate things that could be sold on consignment in a shop in McLean, and we received 50 percent of the proceeds.” Marjorie also used her love of history to generate revenue for the mill by writing, publishing and selling more than a dozen books about mills in the region. In 15 years, the Lundegards’ efforts helped generate the impressive sum of $50,000 to support Colvin Run Mill’s capital improvements plan, which includes renovating the miller’s house and building an educational visitor center, and they continue to support the cause with the same can-do spirit that started their campaign. Together, they and the Friends group have proven that a penny saved is indeed a dollar earned.

The Lundegards presented the Fairfax County Park Foundation with a check for $50,000 on behalf of the Friends of Colvin Run Mill in June 2014 to support the Colvin Run Mill building campaign. To learn how you can support the campaign, visit www.fairfaxparkfoundation.org.

• Offered at Mt. Vernon Ice Arena at Mt. Vernon RECenter and Fairfax Ice Arena. • Students should report 15 minutes before class and be ready to go on the ice at class time. • Prior to the first class, students should attend a public session to become accustomed to the ice and to determine proper skate fitting. • Recommended clothing is a sweater or jacket, knit hat, gloves or mittens and warm, comfortable, slacks. • Ice skating classes include free admissions to public skating sessions equal to the number of classes. All group-lesson students are entitled to free rental skates for use during lessons and practice sessions. • Although there are no equipment requirements except as noted in Hockey 1 and up, head protection (hockey or biking helmets), knee and elbow protection are strongly recommended.

Two different instructional progressions are used for lessons, USFSA (Skate with US – Snowplow Sam, Basic, Freestyle, Adult) and ISI (Ice Skating Institute – Tot, Pre-Alpha, Alpha, Beta).

Pet Place

Pet Place Our dog obedience classes help build a strong relationship between pet and handler by developing understanding and communication. Flexible training methods are employed for home management, problem solving and correction. Please note: • Dogs that display fear or aggression are not permitted in Park Authority classes. • Bring a shot record with proof of DHLA rabies and parvovirus shots to the first class. • All dogs must be legally licensed, vaccinated, wearing a visible dog license and leashed when entering or leaving the class area. • Check with instructor at first class for proper leashes, collars and other equipment. • An adult must stay with child handler if student is younger than 16 or does not have own transportation. • All classes are held outdoors. • Register the handler, not the dog; one handler/ one dog per registration. Some classes may have supply fees so check class descriptions for details. Any supply fees are payable to instructor at first class and are non-refundable.

Off-Leash Dogs Welcome in Special Dog Parks

Owners of well-mannered canines can take their pets to fenced, off-leash dog parks for free play, a good run or a friendly romp with other dogs.

FCPA has eight established dog parks: • Blake Lane, 10033 Blake Lane, Oakton • Baron Cameron, 11300 Baron Cameron Ave., Reston • South Run, 7550 Reservation Drive, Springfield • Mason District, 6621 Columbia Pike, Annandale. • Chandon, 900 Palmer Drive, Herndon • Rock Hill District Park, 15150 Old Lee Rd., Centreville. • Grist Mill, 4710 Mt. Vernon Memorial Hwy, Alexandria • Westgrove, 6801 Fort Hunt Road, Alexandria All Park Authority dog parks are public/private partnerships, developed in cooperation with sponsoring organizations of pet owners. The sponsors are the agency’s liaison between users and local residents, Animal Control and the Police Department. They monitor and clean up the facilities, publicize dog park rules and regulations, and report maintenance needs to the Park Authority. Dog parks are open year round from sunup to sundown. Off-leash dog park users do so at their own risk. Neither Fairfax County nor the Fairfax County Park Authority is liable for any injury or damage caused by any dog in the off-leash area. For off-leash dog park rules and regulations, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/parkrules/dogpark.htm, or call (703) 324-8594.
