There’s a reason the Fairfax County Park Authority camp program has become one of the largest and most popular providers in the region – quality. In 2018, the Park Authority offered more than 2,000 weeks of camp accommodating more than 25,000 registrations in a wide variety of options ranging from sports to specialty camps. In fact, specialty camps have increased more than 250 percent over the past decade, enabling the Park Authority to provide unique opportunities for diverse interests in a safe and enriching environment.
Our summer camp program has evolved from an emphasis on sports and creative arts to one that accommodates ever-changing interests in our global community. As the agency’s youth services section manager, I take pride in listening to our community and identifying new, exciting and rewarding opportunities for the children we serve. I want every child to have fun, make new friends and enjoy learning new skills or just trying something new. I also take seriously my role in hiring responsible, caring individuals and training them well to serve as camp counselors, a role that I once held myself as a college student. Year after year, we survey the parents of our campers, and the results help us identify both service opportunities and interest areas that inform future planning. Our program demonstrates a tradition of excellence that has stood the test of time, and I look forward to each new camp season the way many children look forward to the first day of school. It is my privilege to serve as the program leader, and I can’t wait for the season to begin. To plan your children’s next summer adventures, turn to the Camps section on page 37, and let the fun begin! We look forward to seeing your children at camp!

GetFiT Program Inspires Fitness Success Like many new mothers, Karina Chen wanted to shape up after the birth of her daughter four years ago. But gyms were intimidating to her, and she was concerned that she wouldn’t be able to keep up with group fitness classes. “At first it was hard to move after staying home for so long,” she recalled. “My New Year’s wish one or two years ago was to make exercise as natural as breathing. I started with 10 or 15 minutes a day.”
She says she started with YouTube Zumba videos to build both her stamina and her confidence. “I had to learn and follow the steps so I wouldn’t embarrass myself in class,” she joked. Then, while shopping for Park Authority children’s classes for her daughter, she discovered a RECenter membership option for newcomers like her. On New Year’s Eve day, Chen stepped out of her comfort zone and bought a 30-day membership for $30 at Providence RECenter. It included the GetFiT program with three coaching sessions to learn how to use weight-training equipment properly.
“That is awesome,” she said enthusiastically. “I didn’t really know how to do strength training, and it was nice to have a professional coach teach me how to train the muscles.” In addition to three coaching sessions with trained fitness professionals, the GetFiT program helps new RECenter members set personal fitness goals and identify resources for staying on track. It also includes an InBody body composition analysis to help identify target areas. Chen proudly accepts her reward for completing the GetFiT 30-Day Challenge.
“The coaches here are very professional,” Chen said. “With the InBody analysis, I realized I tend to put more stress on one particular side. From now on, I will work to balance the muscles on both sides.” Chen says she exercised almost daily for those first thirty days and started to notice results. “My clothes fit better, I had more energy, and I was capable of lifting heavier weights compared to the first session,” she said. Once her 30-day membership was up, she also realized she was well on her way to making “exercise as natural as breathing,” and she purchased an annual membership.
“This is a really a good value in our neighborhood compared to private facilities, and I realized I didn’t want to waste this perfect opportunity,” she said. “Exercise is important, and I want to stay healthy and see my daughter grow up.”

KEEP DEER OUT OF YOUR YARD
— Naturally
There’s something restorative about spending summer days outdoors. The daylight lasts longer, the weather is warmer and the lush, green landscape becomes accented with dazzling flowers just about everywhere you look. The challenge is making sure the visual feast doesn’t become a literal feast for deer. “As a home gardener, I spent a fortune on deer repellents,” said Green Spring master gardener and naturalist Alda Krinsman as she reflected on the challenge with a growing deer population at her former New Jersey home. “It got to the point where I didn’t even buy tulip bulbs to plant. I gave up.” Many Fairfax County residents have also experienced the maddening frustration of losing beautiful blooms, shrubs and vegetables to hungry deer. Krinsman says one way to help prevent that from happening this year is to plant annuals and perennials that deter deer. “Most plants in the mint family or plants that have strong, herbal scents tend to keep them away,” Krinsman said. “Agastaches and mountain mint are some of my favorites.” Hummingbird mint, catmint and anise hyssop are among other colorful, fragrant plants that deer don’t like. An added benefit is that they attract hummingbirds, butterflies and essential garden pollinators. Deer also tend to turn their noses up at foliage with prickly or sharp leaves. “Plants with fuzzy leaves such as lantanas or plants with an irritating leaf they won’t eat.” Krinsman said. They also won’t eat daffodils, foxgloves and hellebores because these plants are poisonous to deer. The Garden Gate Plant Shop at Green Spring Gardens has a wide selection of deer resistant plants for sale. The shop features plants that grow well in Northern Virginia, including those that are featured in the park’s gardens, and plant experts are usually available on Saturday mornings to help with plant selections and to offer gardening advice. The shop is open Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. and on Sunday from noon to 4 p.m. Mark your calendar for Spring Garden Day at Green Spring Gardens, Saturday, May 18 from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. This popular event offers beautiful and unusual plants from more than 40 local garden vendors to fill your seasonal gardening needs.

Pulling Bats from the BRINK OF EXTINCTION
Spring is typically the time bats emerge from hibernation to play an important role in the ecosystem. Big brown bats, which are common in Fairfax County, can consume their body weight in insects each night, and it is estimated that bats save U.S. farmers as much as $53 billion in insect-related crop damage and insecticide use annually. But a fungal disease called white-nose syndrome is rapidly taking its toll on Virginia’s cave-dwelling bat population and threatening to disrupt the ecosystem. It rouses bats from hibernation early causing them to consume their winter fat stores and starve to death before spring. “The disease is moving much faster than recovery because bats don’t have the reproductive potential that other animals have,” said Park Authority ecologist Kristen Sinclair. “Most bats have only one pup per year.” White-nose syndrome was first detected in a cave near Albany, New York in 2006. Since then, it has spread to 33 U.S. states and seven Canadian provinces, resulting in one of the steepest wildlife collapses of the past century. Death rates of several species exceed 95 percent, and some species may be at risk of extinction. “The little brown bat was one of the most common bats in our area 10 years ago, and it has almost disappeared from Fairfax County because of white-nose syndrome,” Sinclair said. “Losing these animals puts the food web and ecosystem out of balance.” To help protect bats in Fairfax County parks, Sinclair and other Park Authority ecologists and wildlife experts are spending their third summer monitoring bat activity in parks. The goal is to determine the presence of rare or declining bat species and develop strategies to help them thrive. “We use mist netting to capture bats to identify the species, take measurements and evaluate each animal’s health,” Sinclair said. “Bats are then released back into the wild.” Acoustic monitoring equipment is also used throughout the summer to record bat echolocation calls. The sounds are mostly undetectable to the human ear but can be picked up by an ultrasonic microphone. “We have recorded seven bat species in Fairfax County parks,” Sinclair said. “Each species emits a unique call that is identified using special computer software.” Sinclair says the long-term goal is to determine where in parks bats cluster to roost and raise their young, often in dead trees. “Preserving standing, dead trees, also known as snags, may go a long way toward conserving our local bats,” Sinclair said. Learn more about these beneficial nocturnal animals in one of our bat programs or at the Spring Fling at Lake Accotink on May 11. Details are in the Nature section. Summer 2019

VOLUNTEER PROFILE
Aidan DiBona
It’s easy to see how much Hidden Pond Nature Center has influenced Aidan DiBona over the years. It started when he was just 6 years old and attended a nature camp for the first time.
“I have always been fascinated with animals and nature, and I loved the nature camps and programs at Hidden Pond Park,” he said enthusiastically. “I would look up to all the older volunteers and counselors wanted to be like them when I got older.” Now the 14-year-old South County High School freshman is one of them – a volunteer who delights in nurturing other children’s interest in nature with the same enthusiasm that sparked his own passion. Aidan’s winning smile and relatable manner put visitors at ease as he greets them every other Sunday afternoon during the school year. He also feeds the animals and entertains guests at nature center birthday parties. “I love giving the animal talks to kids of all ages,” he said. “I take out our turtles, snakes and frogs and show them to the kids up close, show them how to pet them and answer their questions.” During the summer when school is out, Aidan volunteers more frequently. That’s when he gets to help kids and counselors with Hidden Pond nature camps.
“I like teaching others about the animals in the environment,” he said. “Whenever I work with the kids in camp, many want to be my best buddy for the whole day.”
Over the past four years, Aidan has provided hundreds of hours of volunteer service to the nature center annually, well above his school’s annual 15-hour service requirement. He admits volunteering is a commitment, but he finds the work rewarding. In fact, he says it may ultimately be his calling. “I never thought I’d go this far with it, but I just love it,” he said. “I’ve made a lot of friends from different schools, I enjoy being outdoors and exploring the ecosystem, and I love caring for the animals at Hidden Pond Nature Center. I definitely want to find a career working with animals and the environment someday.”

In keeping with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA), Fairfax County is committed to giving all residents 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) 324-8563. 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 Fairfax County residents. For information on accessible features or issues associated with usage, call (703) 324-8563 or visit 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 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.

A Life Like Yours
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 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.

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.

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. 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.

• 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, 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. Full-day 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 • If your child requires medication, complete the Medication Authorization Form at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/campforms • 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.
