Parks Bring Innovation to Outdoor Recreation

Todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s modern technology is truly wonderful and has captured the hearts and minds of multiple generations. New phone applications allow us to instantly access a global repository of knowledge as well as monitor personal biometrics and even track down virtual creatures and collect them all. As personal computing devices and social media take hold of our imaginations and pull our gaze ever more toward various miniaturized screens, it is important not to forget the wonders and undiscovered secrets of our very own real and tangible world. Our parks offer endless opportunities to exercise, explore, learn, contemplate, and re-connect. Some of the hidden gems in the midst of the hustle and bustle of the capitol region are Lake Accotink, Lake Fairfax, Burke Lake and Riverbend Parks, where sounds of highway traffic are replaced with the cheerful songs of migrating birds. Within these protected spaces we can relax with friends, hike the trails and take part in many other programs and activities while basking in the glow of sunsets as they reflect on tranquil waters. While technology may have made staying inside much more appealing, technology has also made getting outside much more interesting and rewarding. Activities such as geocaching, hiking, biking, paddling, climbing, photography, star gazing, orienteering and birding can now all be enhanced with the right technological applications, and the Park Authority is expanding its offerings to combine 21st century innovation with traditional outdoor programs. Since the bounds extend well beyond boating, fishing and camping, we are now highlighting them in the new Parktakes Outdoor Recreation section. Whether you have a desire to leave your technology behind or bring it with you to enhance your outdoor experience, we have a program for you. Explore the Outdoor Recreation section and start planning your summer adventures in parks!

Treetop Adventure Course to Open at South Run Park

Swing into action this spring at Fairfax County’s new zip line and high ropes course near South Run RECenter in Springfield. The new Go Ape adventure course opens to the public on May 5 and gives you a fully immersive outdoor activity with a thrilling view of the park’s forest canopy! The new adventure course was developed through a unique revenue-sharing partnership between the Park Authority and Go Ape. The fun begins when participants ascend a rope ladder, or fisherman’s trap, which leads to a set of obstacles and ends with a zip line bringing guests back to the forest floor. Each site gets progressively more challenging and the zip lines get longer. Course features include suspended obstacles 20 to 40 feet up in the forest canopy, nine zip lines and a specially designed course for children. It can accommodate beginners as well as skilled outdoor enthusiasts, and the entire course takes between one and three hours to complete, depending on the selected route – Treetop Adventure or Junior. All adventure course users are required to first participate in a comprehensive, The ropes course at South Run is opening 20-minute safety May 5. training session. So mark your calendar for May 5 to Go Ape at South Run Park! To learn more, or to book your adventure, visit www.goape.com. No public dollars were used to build the adventure course. Go Ape provided the capital investment for construction and will maintain and operate the course at South Run. The Park Authority will share in the revenue derived from all ticket sales.

Peer into the night sky through one of three, powerful telescopes at Observatory Park at Turner Farm in Great Falls, and embark on an amazing journey into our solar system. From the moon to the stars to meteors and more, you’ll be amazed at the places you can explore from the roll top observatory. “It was pretty cool because you got to see two double stars out there, and Venus,” said Vienna 9-yearold Drew Wilbricht enthusiastically during one of the first astronomy programs held at the new observatory. “I also learned more about the moon and Mars and Venus. There’s a volcano on Mars, the biggest in the galaxy, and it’s three times the height of Mount Everest.” Cillian Gray, a 7-year-old from Fairfax, was equally impressed. “I got to see different constellations and planets and what they look like in the telescope,” he said. “In pictures, it doesn’t look the same.” The new astronomy programs at Turner farm are the result of a partnership between the Fairfax County Park Authority and Visitors get a special knowledgeable volunteer scientists from the Analemma Society. tour of planetary Together they share their expertise to help bring context to the features from an world beyond Earth’s stratosphere.

Sail into Summer with Parks!

From water fun to adventure to camps, golf and more, there are so many ways to play in parks; you could schedule a different activity for every day of summer!

Lake Fairfax Park’s new pump track offers fun for cyclists of all ages and skill levels. The name comes from the pumping motion used by the rider’s upper and lower body. All you really need is a bike with knobby tires and a safety helmet. It’s a great workout and lots of fun!

If you’re into fun and games, you’ll love playing mini golf at any of the Park Authority’s four courses, not to mention riding on a carousel or a train, or jumping on a wagon for a hayride. Travel on the water in a pedal boat at Lake Accotink or Burke Lake, or rent a canoe or kayak at Riverbend Park and enjoy the view of nature at the water’s edge.

If water fun is more your style, make a summer splash at the Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole at Lake Fairfax, or sail into Our Special Harbor sprayground at Lee District Park, or take a break from the summer sun and plunge into a pool at all nine Fairfax County Park Authority RECenters.

Take a hike in our scenic parks and check out seasonal blooms, birds and tall timber along the way. There are more than 400 miles of trails in Fairfax County, and you can map your route with the Park Authority’s Trail Buddy mapping tool. Visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/ trails and plan your route today! For information on other park amusements, turn to the Attractions section of Parktakes.

Savor the Taste of Summer at Farmers Markets

Bring out the flavor of summer with a juicy peach or a tangy tomato from your nearest Fairfax County farmers market. Each year from May to December, local farmers markets come to life with a feast for the senses, from the vibrant colors of freshly picked fruits and vegetables to the aroma of freshly baked bread and pastries and the fragrant perfume of cut flowers. Produce at the farmer’s market is generally picked at the peak of ripeness when the plant’s natural sugars are at their highest. The result is fresh, greattasting produce with the best nutrition possible. Add farmers’ market produce

to your cooking, and you’ll be amazed at the difference in flavor and texture. All products at our markets are produced by vendors with 125 miles of Fairfax County, so you can be assured that the produce you purchase at all 11 Park Authority farmers markets is fresh, locally-grown and consistently good. For farmers market locations and hours, see the ad in the Gardening section. To learn more about the vendors at specific farmers markets, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/farmersmarkets. For farmers market hours and locations, see the ad in the Gardening section.

Planting Seeds of Knowledge For the second year, the Fairfax 4-H Community Club is teaming up with the Park Authority on a volunteer gardening project at South Run RECenter. The 4-H students will spend the summer cultivating vegetables and learning how to garden from adult volunteers. The long-range plan is to offer gardening classes at South Run RECenter by next summer.

Celebrate the Season at Step back in time at Sully Historic Site in Chantilly with Fairfax County’s official Earth Day and Arbor Day celebration – Springfest! This year’s event will be held from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday, April 29 and will include activities with an historic theme to tie in with the 275th anniversary of Fairfax County. Family entertainment, environmental activities and the Healthy Strides Expo and Fun Run are all on the day-long agenda to promote good health all around: Healthy People, Healthy Planet. Summer 2017

Volunteer Spotlight

Inge Glenn

If we are the sum of all our experiences, Inge Glenn has lived a rich life, indeed. The retired accountant is a selfprofessed people-lover who delights in meeting and greeting patrons at Spring Hill RECenter as they check in at the front desk. “People come from all over the world,” Glenn enthusiastically said. “I love it!” The cheerful, 83-year-old grandmother knows everyone has a story to tell, and she enjoys learning about people from various cultures while volunteering at the RECenter front desk. She herself speaks three languages fluently, English, Spanish and German, which comes in handy when communicating with Spring Hill’s multicultural customers of all ages. “The children, they wave at me and are so cute,” she said with a glint in her eye. “They’re adorable!” Perhaps the reason Glenn seems to delight in every exchange with every patron she greets from every walk of life is that she learned from her own childhood to appreciate every moment. “War makes kids tough,” Glenn said as she reflected on her own experiences during her formative years. The German native left Berlin just a few years after World War II ended to live with her aunt in Colombia, South America. She was 17 at the time. “Those were very bad times,” she said with seriousness as she remembered what it took to survive her war-torn childhood. Today, she still recognizes the war’s Inge Glenn at 18, a year lingering effects on her. “I’m still after leaving Germany. always looking around to make sure

everything is safe. It stays with you once you learn it.” Despite her mother’s prediction that she would never survive on her own, Glenn earned an accounting degree in Colombia and met and married an American engineer working there at the time. The Glenns later moved to the United States when their daughter was ready to start school. “I have always wanted to live here,” she said. “I would go someplace else if there were some place better, but there’s not. This is the greatest country in the world.” Now, as a U.S. citizen, Glenn prides herself on staying active and making positive contributions to the community. Although she is retired, she still helps out occasionally at an insurance agency, she works at the polls during elections, and she looks forward to volunteering several days a week at Spring Hill RECenter. “This is the greatest place to volunteer,” she said with affection. “I love the people, it’s a great community and everyone helps one another.”

ADA/Inclusion Support

In keeping with the Americans with Disabilities Act, Fairfax County is committed to giving all citizens equal access to recreation and leisure opportunities. Park Authority activities, programs, camps and classes are inclusive, and reasonable accommodations are available for people with disabilities. ADA accommodations include sign interpreters, assistive listening devices, program modifications and inclusion support. To request accommodations, or for more information about adapted program opportunities, call (703) 3248563. The Park Authority makes every attempt to provide accommodations; however, fulfillment of requests received with less than 10 days’ notice cannot be guaranteed.

Facility Accessibility

The Fairfax County Park Authority offers parks and facilities that are accessible to all of Fairfax County residents. For information on accessible features or issues associated with usage, call (703) 324-8563 or visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/ parks.

Adapted Aquatics The Park Authority’s award-winning Adapted Aquatics program offers individualized swimming and water activity instruction for individuals 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.

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.

Aquatics

Aquatics 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.

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 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.

Combining course levels

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

U.S. Swimming, Synchronized Swimming or Dive Meets

Please see “High School Swim & Dive Teams” section for information regarding High School Swim & Dive schedules. Please check with your favorite RECenter pool facility or online pool calendar for most current closure information. In some cases, pools and spas may not be closed for the entire date listed.

Pool and spa shutdowns are necessary for deep cleaning and repairs that cannot be completed during normal operational time frames. Given the scope of work, the dates are subject to change. Please be sure to check with these RECenters before visiting the pool and spa. The following RECenter pools are scheduled in 2017 for their bi-annual pool and spa shutdown.

NEW! Small Group Lessons

• RECenters now offer small-group lessons. 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.

• 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. 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.

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.

Special Programs Canine Cruise

cruise aboard Lake Accotink Park’s pontoon tour boat. Watch for waterfowl such as ducks, geese and herons. Look up, and you might spot one of the parks resident eagles.

Choose from Horses, Sea Horse, Hummingbird, Frog, Deer, Whooping Crane, Swan Chair, Eagle, Coyote, Wheelchair Chariot (Note: The Sea Turtle, 2 horses with ADA Seat and 1 Horse have already been lovingly adopted.) Adoptive parents get the first carousel ride at the ceremonial opening!
