One of the highest benchmarks of excellence that a park system can attain is accreditation through the National Commission for Accreditation of Park and Recreation Agencies (CAPRA). For the third consecutive, five-year term, the Fairfax County Park Authority recently attained this mark of distinction with a perfect score in all 151 national standards that measure an agency’s overall quality of operation, management and services to the community. It demonstrates the Park Authority’s commitment to adhering to best practices for managing and maintaining our public lands, facilities, resources and services with a high degree of accountability.
The CAPRA accreditation process is rigorous, and we could not have attained this achievement without sustained community involvement and support. Our staff’s commitment to service is truly inspiring. Our volunteers and donors consistently amaze us with their generous gifts of time, talent and resources. Taxpayers have consistently supported our efforts to improve and maintain our recreational, cultural and natural resources by supporting park bonds, and the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors and our Park Authority Board have demonstrated unwavering support throughout the years in both policy and budget decisions.
CAPRA accreditation reflects considered decision-making, dedicated individuals and the realization that the Fairfax County Park Authority plays an integral role in our community’s quality of life. I am very proud of our collective accomplishment and truly grateful for the opportunity to serve as the agency’s leader in a community that values its parks.

Spring 2019
History’s Mysteries in Adventure Camp Kids Solve one of
Imagine the hardships the Founding Fathers encountered as they fought for the nation’s independence during the Revolutionary War. For many, it was the ultimate survival test as soldiers battled everything from the elements to the enemy. One patriot’s experience is at the heart of Adventure Camp: American History Mystery at Frying Pan Farm Park, where kids piece together clues to find the missing soldier. “It was a lot of fun and very surprising at the end,” recalled 10-year-old Gavin Fortuno who attended the camp last summer. “We were trying to save another agent and we had to crack the code to find the bad guy who had him.” “You feel like you’re living back in time,” said Gavin’s older brother, Danny, who also attended the camp. “We learned how to build a shelter if you’re stranded in the woods, and we learned how the soldiers would march and overcome obstacles.” The camp is inspired by a true story, and the Fortuno brothers enjoyed the challenge of overcoming obstacles to find their missing comrade. They also walked away with a greater appreciation of the deplorable conditions Revolutionary War soldiers survived and the extreme sacrifices they made in the fight for our nation’s independence. “They didn’t have as good medicine back then, and they did not have anesthesia to put you to sleep during amputations,” Danny said soberly as he reflected on the will it would take to survive such a horrifying circumstance. “We learned a lot about what the soldiers went through. They had to be strong and stay positive, and they would have to be very lucky people not to get hurt. I should not complain about stuff because they went through a lot worse.” Learning about the hardships left a lasting impression on both boys. In the best of times, they got to experience a unique camaraderie with other campers as they, in the spirit of their forefathers, worked together to defeat a common enemy. “I made a lot of friends there and talked about what it was like to be in the Revolutionary Army,” Gavin said. “Trying to find the bad guy was sometimes hard, but the counselors made it a lot of fun.” Spring 2019
The Park Authority offers nearly 2000 camp programs in a wide range of interest areas for children age 3 to 17. To learn more, turn to the Camps section.

RECenters Expand Fitness Options
for
Cancer Patients
It’s Sunday afternoon at Spring Hill RECenter as a committed group of women sets out on a 45-minute walk around the indoor track. The pace is brisk, the banter is lively, and the camaraderie is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the healing power of exercise. The members of this walking group are connected by one terrifying, shared experience – cancer. “Exercise helped calm my thoughts and gave me a sense of control during a very stressful time,” said Ilana Gamerman, a registered nurse who faced her cancer battle in 2012. “My oncologist was very clear,” recalled Michelle Stravitz, who was diagnosed with cancer in 2015. “The more you move, the less fatigued you will be. It’s counterintuitive, but the research supports that.” Both women experienced the physical and emotional benefits of exercise during cancer treatment and decided they wanted to help others do the same. In May 2018 they launched 2Unstoppable.org, a free web resource that connects any woman who has ever had a cancer diagnosis with exercise resources including fitness buddies, walking groups and Fairfax County RECenters. “The RECenter commitment is a huge benefit to the cancer community because it increases the capacity for women and men to safely exercise in a supportive environment,” Stravitz said. In December, 10 RECenter certified fitness instructors completed advanced, specialized training through the Cancer Exercise Training Institute (CETI) to better understand cancer patients’ physical and emotional challenges and better support their unique fitness needs. These instructors are now available to help cancer patients with personal training and group fitness classes at all Fairfax County RECenters, and soon they’ll develop classes and programming designed to help cancer patients stay positive and keep moving through treatment and recovery. For more information about personal training group fitness classes for cancer patients, contact the fitness director at the RECenter of your choice. To get paired with a fitness buddy, a walking group and other resources for cancer patients, visit www.2Unstoppable.org.

Spring Cleaning is for the BIRDS
No one likes coming home to a dirty house, including the birds! If you want to attract colorful birds to your yard during the spring migration, you’d better add their homes to your spring cleaning to-do list.
“An old nest in a bird box can have mites and parasites that are harmful to the birds,” said Park Authority naturalist Tony Bulmer. “You should remove the old nest and debris and wash the bird box with dishwashing liquid and water only. Chemical products will repel the birds.” Once the bird houses are clean, Bulmer says you should sanitize your bird feeders with bleach or by running them through the dishwasher. Otherwise, you risk making the winged wonders sick.
“Bird seed often gets caked in the bottom of bird feeders, and if it’s not cleaned out every few weeks, fungus and mold start growing in the seed, which will harm the birds if they eat it,” Bulmer said. “Hummingbird feeders should be cleaned every three days to keep harmful black mold from growing in them.” Once the feeders are clean, you should carefully consider where to place them. A poorly placed feeder can also be hazardous to birds and attract unwanted guests to your house.
“Except for hummingbird feeders, I would avoid hanging bird feeders from the deck because you’ll have to clean bird droppings from your deck daily, and the spilled seed can attract mice to your house,” Bulmer said. “It’s also important to hang feeders at least 10 feet from the house, because windows reflect the sky and confuse the birds. Instead of flying into the sky after feeding, they wind up flying into the window, which can injure them.” Bulmer says trees are among the best places to hang feeders because the branches and leaves provide cover from predators. Sunflower seeds will attract native birds like woodpeckers, chickadees and bluejays. “It’s a good idea to have a source of water for native bluebirds,” he said. “That will attract them more than anything.”
If you have room for only one bird box in your yard, Bulmer suggests making it one built for native house wrens. These delightful birds are sure to entertain the entire family and keep other unwanted pests at bay.
“House wrens are charismatic, funny and sound like running water when they’re singing,” Bulmer said. “Kids love watching them and gardeners love having them around because they eat insects that are garden pests. Other birds love them because even though the house wren is only a few inches long, they’re fearless and will chase crows away.”
Turn to the Nature section for birding programs for children and adults. You can also ask a naturalist about birds and other natural wonders by submitting questions online at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/ask-a-naturalist. Spring is just around the corner and for just a few brief weeks, a spectrum of colorful wildflowers will blanket parkland trails, heralding warmer weather in one of the biggest biological events in the world. For each delicate species to survive to the next season, it must bloom, attract pollinators and go to seed before the trees begin to leaf and block out the sun. The race typically begins in late March and ends by mid-April in our area, and the breathtaking blooms are sure to wow you during your seasonal hikes along the trails.
Wildflower Walks
Naturalist-led wildflower walks are a great way to learn about various plants, their heritage and their fascinating role in the ecosystem. Some seasonal varieties have delicate names, like pink lady slippers, fairy spuds and trout lilies. Several species depict their name, like the papoose flower, which wraps its leaves around the seed pod; Jack-in-the-pulpit features a tiny, upright flower spike that looks like a tiny man standing in an old-fashioned, raised pulpit. Perennial favorites include Dutchman’s breeches, May apples and the Virginia bluebells. Nature makes them, and you can see them this spring in Fairfax County parks.
The Perfect Cure Celebrate the first signs of spring with a wildflower program or the Bluebells at the Bend Festival. For for Cabin Fever details, turn to the Nature and Events sections. 7
Pinecrest Golf League Puts
Beginners on Course There’s no question golf can be perceived as intimidating, especially for beginners. Golf lessons and classes teach you the skills, but proficiency requires practice, and beginners are often reluctant to play the game for fear of holding up more experienced players behind them. “If you started learning at an older age, it’s a little intimidating,” said Chris Sisko of Alexandria, who learned to play as an adult at Pinecrest Golf Course. “The more pressure there is to play, the more likely you are to quit.” Sisko says the Pinecrest Golf League kept him in the game by pairing him up with players of similar ability during dedicated tee times. True beginners play at the Birdie Level and are accompanied by an experienced mentor to help remind them of everything from club selection to swing mechanics to etiquette. “I just can’t speak highly enough about the mentor system,” said Sheryl Leeds of Alexandria, who took up golf when she retired. “That’s huge as a beginner! I call the mentor the golf whisperer.” “Going out with a mentor is very helpful,” said Bryan Kinsey of Falls Church, who started playing in the league three years ago. “The mentor points out things on the course in a one-on-one setting and keeps reminding you of what to do in various situations and how to improve.” Kinsey now plays at the Golf League's Eagle Level, designed for those who are more confident and can play together without a mentor. They always have the option of returning to the Birdie Level if they find they aren’t playing well and want more guidance. “I think it’s a great environment for beginner and intermediate players,” Sisko said. “There’s no pressure, and everyone is very supportive.” The Pinecrest Golf League also includes free monthly golf clinics with a professional instructor, opportunities to play together at other Park Authority golf courses and lunch at the end of each game. Perhaps the most enduring benefit is the friendships that are made along the way – connections that lead to friendly rounds of golf all year long. “The social aspects of the league are wonderful,” Sisko said. “You really get to know everybody.” Leagues for players of all abilities are forming now at Park Authority golf courses. To find a course near you, turn to the Golf section.

RECenter Instructors Take Water Safety
to School
It takes just two minutes for life-sustaining water to have exactly the opposite effect under tragic circumstances. Home swimming pools, bathtubs and even buckets of water and puddles become deadly hazards for thousands of drowning victims in the U.S. each year. Statistics show one in five of the victims are unsupervised children, and their deaths are preventable.
“It’s knowledge that saves lives,” said Linda Mulloy, a South Run RECenter Water Safety Instructor and retired Fairfax County public school teacher. “Sadly there are many children who don’t know how to swim, and they wouldn’t know what to do in water if they unexpectedly encountered a situation.”
To prevent childhood drowning, Mulloy and her colleague, Gerianne Basden, also a retired Fairfax County educator, visit elementary schools each spring to teach water safety to children. They do it in an age-appropriate way with the help of an American Red Cross video series called WHALE Tales featuring a cartoon whale named Longfellow and several child actors.
“The students are drawn into the situation because the vignettes are produced in a compelling way that kids can relate to,” Basden said. The vignettes are situational and are designed to stimulate conversations and generate awareness about water safety.
“We’ve received a tremendous amount of positive feedback,” Mulloy said. “Teachers have come up to us after the presentation to ask if we could come to their own children’s schools.”
Last spring, Mulloy and Basden taught the one-hour program to more than 5000 Fairfax County students. They’re already booking appointments for this spring, knowing that many of those children will share what they’ve learned with their family. “If we can teach the kids, they will teach the parents, and everyone benefits,” Basden said. To learn more about the WHALE Tales water safety program contact South Run RECenter at (703) 866-0566.

VOLUNTEER PROFILE
Emma Jackson, Amy Reuter, Robin Strasel • Frying Pan Farm Park
For many people, volunteering as a farm hand would be much too far outside their comfort zone. But Emma Jackson, Amy Reuter and Robin Strasel feel right at home in that role at Frying Pan Farm Park. The Fairfax County teenagers first learned about the opportunity through the park’s 4-H Club three years ago, and they couldn’t wait to sign up.
“We get to milk the goats and give pig vaccinations,” said Reuter, a 15-year-old Westfields High School student enthusiastically. “I love animals and always wanted to do something with animals, and I have been thinking about becoming a veterinarian.” From caring for the animals to sweeping out the stalls, the volunteers feel a sense of purpose in their work as they cultivate friendships with other volunteer farmhands from other schools who they would otherwise never meet. One or two days a week after school, they share a common bond spending up to two hours helping with farm chores at the last major working farm in Fairfax County.
“If we don’t show up, the farmer has to do it all,” said Jackson, a 16-year-old Woodson High School student who plans to pursue a career in animal science. “We work with the chickens, rabbits and game birds and give them water and food. It’s very relaxing and something I really, really enjoy.”
“I’ve been coming to Frying Pan Farm Park since I was a baby,” said Strasel, a 15-year-old future English teacher from Westfields High School who these days enjoys caring for the farm’s baby animals among other duties. “It’s hard work, but it’s rewarding and lots of fun.” It’s a unique, real-world learning experience that teaches the value of hard work, provides a public service and produces friendships that will last a lifetime.

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 Adapted Aquatics Coordinator at (703) 324-8565. For safety reasons and to ensure 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. Practice and Repetition are keys to success Each student progresses at a different speed in learning aquatic skills. 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.

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.
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 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 several 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.
Combining course levels
When enrollment is low, course levels may be combined to avoid class cancelations.

This new lesson option complements the Park Authority’s other swim instruction offerings: • Private Lessons for students ages 3 to adult offer one-on-one instruction solely based on the student’s skill level. • Semi-private lessons for students ages 3 to adult offer instruction between two participants of similar ability and one instructor. • Small-group lessons will offer the same curriculum as the larger, traditional group lessons but to a smaller group of swimmers. Small-group lessons lower student-to-teacher ratios, offer more personalized instruction and more practice time than large-group lessons. Traditional group lessons offer a comprehensive curriculum for participants ranging in age from 6 mos. to adult.

Practice Healthy Swimming Habits
Accidents in the pool involving vomit or fecal matter require the pool to be 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 and take 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.

Did You Know?
• Some camps are licensed by the Va. Dept. of Social Services. These camps require additional paperwork such as an immunization record and proof of child’s identity. Download camp forms at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/campforms to determine if your child’s camp is licensed. • We welcome non-Fairfax County residents to join our camps. There is a $15 out-of-county fee. • Some camp weeks are designed for non-FCPS students who get out of school earlier than FCPS. • To provide several options for our customers, camp length and times vary. Be sure to check number of days and hours for each camp. • On rainy days or when substantial rain is expected, some outdoor camps may be canceled for the day. On code red days, campers 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. • Many of our camp leaders email participants the week prior to the start date. Most half-day camps ask campers to bring a snack and drink. Fullday campers need a snack, drink and lunch each day. If your child’s camp includes swim time, also bring a swimsuit and towel. All campers should wear weather-appropriate, comfortable clothes and apply sunscreen before camp. • To expedite the check-in process, make copies of your child’s forms for each camp, each week. Forms are not transferred from one camp to another and can be downloaded at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/campforms • Be sure to complete the Medication Authorization Form at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/ campforms if your child requires medication. • Many RECenters and parks use classrooms and gyms in nearby schools as a respite from the heat. Campers may be bused (using FCPS buses) or walk to/from our facilities to a nearby school during the camp day. • 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, visit www.fairfaxcounty. gov/parks/campforms. • Register early! Camps that do not meet minimum requirements for enrollment may be canceled.

Practice and Repetition are keys to success
Each student progresses at a different speed in learning aquatic skills. 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.
Adapted Aquatics The Park Authority’s award-winning Adapted Aquatics program offers individualized activity instruction for individualsswimming and water with physical and intellectual disabilities. The program’s structured setting is ideal for individuals who aren’t ready to learn basic swim skills in a general recreation environment. Classes are conducted by certified instructors and trained volunteers to support a low student-to-instructor ratio. For more information, call (703) 324-8565.

DONOR PROFILE
Heidi Allen and Tibor Lazar
For Heidi Allen and Tibor Lazar, the love of nature is deeply rooted in their family history. Growing up, Heidi’s interest was inspired by her stepfather’s passion for hiking and canoeing in the Adirondacks, and Tibor’s love of nature and animals stems from his parents’ commitment to improving the natural world around them. “They established a program to help the environment in their community,” Tibor said with affection. “Their heart is helping people and sustainability.”
Now, this husband-and-wife veterinary team is carrying on the tradition with a generous commitment to the Fairfax County Park Foundation. Surrounded by their sons Corvin and Keaton and an impressive array of family pets, these modern-day Dr. Dolittles recently signed an agreement to donate at least $3,000 per month for the next 10 years to establish The Lazar Family Fund. The goal is to create an endowment to support natural resource stewardship efforts on Fairfax County parkland.
“Some of the donated parkland is in poor condition, and we want this fund to be a starting base and encourage other people to give to this fund so we can have goodquality parkland that people can enjoy,” said Heidi, a dedicated volunteer who often helps with local invasive management clean-up efforts. “We need to take better care of the land and control invasive plants.” Heidi and Tibor have a long history of supporting environmental causes around the globe, but this contribution close to home has sentimental value. It was established in memory of Tibor’s parents, Hungarian immigrants whose environmental legacy continues in their neck of the woods in Rappahannock County. “I’m so happy we’ve been able to put this together,” Heidi said. “My hope is that down the line, our sons, who both love nature, will continue supporting charitable funds, follow through and choose well.”

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.
Dog Training One-on-One
Lake Accotink Park offers individualized dog training lessons taught by an instructor with more than 20 years of experience actively training dogs, training other people how to train dogs and competing in dog sports. Sessions are customized to your dog’s level of behavioral development and tailored to your schedule. Includes a pre-session phone consultation with the instructor to determine your goals and to set a date and time for your first session. An excellent option for busy people who need more flexibility than weekly lessons can provide.
