Transforming Tysons Into Fairfax County’s New Downtown

f you’ve spent any time in Tysons recently, you know big changes are underway! A team of Fairfax County planners works with Tysons landowners and developers to ensure Tysons successfully transforms to a thriving, mixed-use urban environment over the coming decades. As the Park Authority’s representative on that team, my job is to ensure new developments in Tysons provide a variety of high quality parks in the right places to meet the demands of future residents, workers and visitors.This includes small pocket parks, open civic plazas, neighborhood common greens, larger recreation-focused parks, and linear parks with trails along restored streams. Major cities across the nation and world recognize the valuable benefits parks provide. In some cities, like New York, Chicago and London, parks are defining features. Parks promote increased physical activity and mental wellbeing, provide venues for community building, enhance tourism and boost the local economy, positively impact real estate values, support ecosystem functioning and biodiversity, reduce air pollutants, provide stormwater management and contribute to cooling effects in urban areas. The list of park benefits goes on and on. As Tysons transforms from a suburban commercial center to a major regional urban center, a connected network of urban parks will help to distinguish Tysons from other urban areas and bring benefits to the local economy and quality of life.To help ensure that happens, the Park Authority has embarked upon an effort to develop a comprehensive park system master plan for Tysons that will complement and refine the existing Tysons Urban Center Plan. The Tysons park planning process depends on public input. As the process moves forward there will be multiple opportunities to share your ideas with us. Please visit the project website at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/tysons to learn more about the master plan and the ways in which you can participate. I hope to hear from you!

QUICKTAKES

For Family Fitness Try Body Pump

hether you’re a weight training rookie or a seasoned athlete, practically everyone can benefit from Body Pump. With choreographed, barbell routines to popular music, Les Mills Body Pump gives you all the benefits of weight lifting in a fun, group setting. For the Lewallen sisters, it’s also an opportunity to stay connected with family. “Wednesday is family night,” said 22-year-old Sarah Lewallen of Burke. That’s the night she, her twin sister, Ashley, their mother, Colleen Regan, and their aunt, Mary Maver meet at Ashley Lewallen and Audrey Moore RECenter for their Colleen Regan weekly Body Pump class. “It’s on the way home from work, and Audrey Moore is centrally located for everyone.” Their cousin, Maggie, also joins them for class when she’s home from college. “The instructors are awesome,” said Regan, who was the first to enroll in Body Pump. She encouraged the others to join her, and it quickly became a family tradition. “The music is constantly moving and the class is fun, not like drudge work, and an hour goes by in a heartbeat,” Sarah said. Ashley agreed.“It keeps you in shape, and we motivate each other by making it a friendly competition. After one year, I feel much stronger and better. The biggest factor is that we get to spend time together and workout.” Another motivation to show up is the promise of dinner after class at one of their houses. “If you don’t go to Body Pump, no dinner,” Regan joked. Body Pump was developed under the supervision of physicians, Spring 2014

physiologists and physical therapists with a goal of giving participants a safe, total-body workout that tones and builds muscle, burns fat and improves overall wellness. The level of challenge is up to each student because he or she controls how much weight to put on the bar. “I love it,” said the Lewallen sisters’ aunt Mary Maver. “I always get a great workout and I wouldn’t lift weights if it weren’t for this class.” Regan agreed. “It’s important for females to lift weights instead of just running to prevent osteoporosis,” and they find that working out together makes them more accountable because they know their family is counting on them to be in class. They’re not the only ones enjoying family fitness time at Body Pump class. Next to their group, a father and his middle-schoolage son seem to enjoy sharing fitness time together, and in the middle of the class, a husband and wife encourage each other throughout the routines. These families know Colleen Regan that by working out together, they’re getting more than just the heartSarah Lewallen pumping, calorie-burning benefits of exercise. They’re helping each other reach a common goal and creating family bonding memories that will last a lifetime. To find a Body Pump class at a RECenter near you, turn to the Exercise and Fitness Section of Parktakes.

Young Scientists “Dig” Archaeology Camp

W Set Sail for the Nautical Cove!

hildren ages 2 to 5 will delight in Lee District Park’s newest playground, the Nautical Cove. The latest addition to Chessie’s BIG Backyard features a fully accessible pirate boat, sea animals and a working lighthouse, all of which complement the park’s other Chesapeake Bay-themed attractions; the Tiki Village playground for ages 5 to12, Our Special Harbor spray ground and an accessible tree house for all ages. The Nautical Cove also features a colorful, soft surface to help ensure safety for toddlers at play, and it will eventually feature a shade covering to make all-day use comfortable and to help protect young children from the sun.The playgrounds are open year round. Our Special Harbor spray ground opens in May. General admission is free. Spray ground admission for groups of 12 or more is $3.00 per person. Chessie’s BIG Backyard is being constructed in phases as funding becomes available through a publicprivate partnership between the Fairfax County Park Authority and generous private and corporate contributions through the Fairfax County Park Foundation. To learn more, visit www.fairfaxparkfoundation.org.

ho knows what treasures lie buried beneath the ground in Fairfax County? Archaeologists have uncovered artifacts dating back thousands of years, and one of the Park Authority’s newest camps gives kids age 8-14 a chance to try their hand at the scientific discovery! In Dig It: Archaeology Adventures, campers discover treasures and learn how our ancestors live. They even get to spend time on an active Fairfax County site working alongside archaeologists and learning from the experts. The camp was first offered last year, and it was an experience to remember.“My son had a great time at this camp. He especially liked the dig they did on-site and meeting a real archaeologist,” wrote one parent in a post-camp survey. “My two children had a great time! They really enjoyed the hands-on, digging and discovering,” wrote another parent. The camp will be offered again this year at Huntley Meadows Park and at Riverbend Park. For registration information, and to discover more camp offerings, turn to the Camps section of Parktakes.

Left: Todd, Eric and Trey Davis have made golf a family affair. Above: the three brothers practice their skills at Burke Lake’s Junior Golf Program.

Golf – A Family Tradition

top by Burke Lake Golf Course, and there’s a good chance you’ll cross paths with the Davis brothers: Todd, 12; Eric, 10; and Trey, 8. Each has a passion for the game their grandpa first taught them, and the course’s Junior Golf program helps keep them linked to their family tradition. “The first one got clubs when he was 5 and then passed them down to his brother when the time came,” said the boys’ father, Mark Davis.Those clubs have long since gone, but play continues for the Davis brothers thanks in part to Junior Golf. “I’ve seen improvement in their confidence and skill level. They learn the technical aspects of the game a little better, they listen better and we play as a family,” Davis said. The Junior Golf program is tailored for students ages 8 to 17 and is offered at all Park Authority golf courses. Annual membership is $20, which entitles members to discounted greens, range and tournament fees and access to free golf clinics at all Park Authority golf courses. The clinics are taught by USGA and PGA golf professionals and cover all aspects of the game. “We start out with rules and etiquette, followed by putting and chipping, short-iron play and longiron play,” said Nea Treynor, Burke Lake Golf Course assistant manager. The final round of golf instruction involves every young golfer’s favorite club: the driver. “They love to smack those balls on the driving range,”Treynor said with a grin. For high-school-age students like James Carter and Hanora Lincoln, the Junior Golf program is a means to an end. “I wanted to make the golf team at Lake Braddock High School and thought this was a good way to get ahead and do better,” Carter said. “The best thing about the program is being able to hit a lot of balls and get in a lot of good practice.” Lincoln, who also attends Lake Braddock, had the same golf-team goal in mind for herself when she became a Junior Spring 2014

Golf member. She got what golf enthusiasts call “the bug” when she was 12.“My whole family golfs,” she said. “They’re competitive, too. Sometimes I hit better than some of them, and I can tell they don’t like it,” she said with an accomplished smile. “The free clinics work on things that need to be worked on.” Lincoln’s mother, Pam, says the benefits of the Junior Golf program extend well beyond instruction. “It’s very familyfriendly, there are reduced rates at certain times for the whole family to play, plus it’s a sport she can play for life,” she said. To register for the Junior Golf program, stop by any Fairfax County Park Authority golf course or contact Lennea Treynor at 703-323-1641 or Lennea.Treynor@fairfaxcounty.gov. In addition to children’s golf programs, adult classes and private lessons are offered at many of the courses. To learn more, turn to the Golf section on page 115.

Painting Class Taps into Talent and Culture

tep into Jahee Oh’s Paint in Oil or Acrylic class, and you instantly become captivated by her creative energy. “Feel the gesture from the picture,” she said enthusiastically while explaining how to capture the emotion of a photograph in an oil painting during a class at Spring Hill RECenter. Quick brush strokes convey the fast pace or movement of a city scene, she explained, and color scheme, texture tools and composition are also important. “It’s amazing what comes out of this class,” longtime student Susan Berkey said. “We sometimes average one small painting per week with everyone addressing the same subject. It’s fascinating how many different interpretations of a subject there can be.” Oh has a passion for tapping into her students’ creative talents and sharing their artistic interpretations with others. Whether they’re beginners or advanced in their skills, the 20-year veteran fine arts instructor has a knack for putting everyone at ease. At the end of one recent session, she showcased her students’ best works in an art show at the Fairfax County Government Center. Roland Stephenson, whose portrait of Abraham Lincoln was featured in the show, is amazed at the way his skill level has expanded over time. “To be able to depict a human face is probably the most difficult thing you can do in the art world,” the Annandale retiree said. “Once you accomplish that, things like landscapes are easy.” Student Carol Widmayer admits she was intimidated when she first enrolled in a Park Authority painting class 10 years ago. “I took a beginning class to learn the basics and the mediums like watercolor, acrylic and oil,” she said. These days she works in oils and enjoys the opportunity for creative expression and learning from others. Berkey agrees. “The group is good. Communication is good, and we always follow up and discuss each session by discussing everyone’s work. By doing that, one can expand and learn 8

to do other things.” Stephenson says he has found inspiration in his classmates’ experiences, too.“One thing that comes along with this class is you meet some very interesting people,” he said. “In this class, there’s a lady from Iran, and from her we learned something interClass members had their esting about Middle Eastern artwork displayed at the Fairfax music.” He says he also met a County Government Center. famous astronomer in a Park Authority pastel class and was fascinated by his life’s work. Whether your interest is creative expression or connecting with culture, Park Authority art classes are sure to help you see practically everything from a new perspective. Oh will be teaching at Providence RECenter this spring. The Park Authority offers a broad range of art classes. Find one that matches your creative interest in the Fine Arts section of Parktakes.

Volunteer Profile Robert Grossman, Jefferson District Park and Golf Course

t’s easy to see why Robert “Bobby G” Grossman is so well liked by staff and patrons at Jefferson District Park and Golf Course. The 86-year-old retired Navy veteran and pro shop volunteer has a knack for connecting with people of all ages as they purchase a round of golf or item from the shop. “People come in and see my Boston Red Sox hat, and we get to talking about Boston and they find out I’m a Redskins fan and they ask, ‘If you’re from Boston, how come you don’t cheer for the Patriots,” he said with a grin. “I tell them when I was a little kid, the Redskins were in Boston, and we were big fans! Then the team moved to Washington.” Grossman’s loyalty moved with the team, and in 1952, a government job offer brought Grossman and his new bride, Marilyn, to the D.C. area, too. “We honeymooned on the way down,” he said. He took up golf with his work buddies for a few years, but once his family started to grow, there was less time for golf. His five children encouraged him to pick it up again after he retired, and that’s when he decided to volunteer two days per week. “The big attraction was free golf,” he said. Grossman started by managing the mini golf course, and later volunteered as a marshal and a starter. “My wife asked me how long I planned to keep that up. I said, ‘Oh, I don’t know, maybe four or five years.’” That was almost 24 years ago. A few years into it, the manager learned that Grossman has retail experience and asked him to help run the register in the pro shop. That’s what he’s been doing ever since. Although Grossman doesn’t play the game anymore, he still shows up to volunteer two days per week. “I’m just having too much fun doing it,” he said enthusiastically. “This course has repeat golfers, and we have a certain camaraderie. I’m doing something I like to do in a congenial environment.”

Practice Healthy Swimming Habits 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

Spring 2014

AQUATICS 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.

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.

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

Learn-to-Swim Classes for Babies and Preschoolers Baby & Me Swim (6-18 mos.) Register your baby for this class designed for babies and their parent(s), or other favorite grown-up(s), who want to learn water adjustment and other aquatic skills together in a fun environment.

Explore buoyancy on front and back, change body position and learn safety information. Two adults may participate with each child. Babies must wear tight-fitting swim diaper and plastic pants under bathing suit. 2AR 2AO 2AAE 2AQ 2AP 2ABJ 2ABD

Week starts with stewardship basics prior to locating and creating caches. Be prepared for a lot of hiking through the parks.

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. • Register the handler, not the dog; one handler/ one dog per registration.

Dog Training One-on-One Lake Accotink Park offers individualized dog training lessons taught by a longtime FCPA dog obedience instructor. Sessions are customized to your dog’s level of behavioral development and tailored to your schedule. Includes a pre-session 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.

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 seven 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.
