now has thawed, temperatures are warming, and summer is finally on its way! As you move outside to take full advantage of our vast park system, you may be interested to know how park planners decide which park facilities, services and programs to provide our community. Every ten years the Park Authority conducts a study to better understand what Fairfax County residents need from a park and recreation system. From that assessment, we can better prioritize and balance those needs across the county and plan for them. This summer, while you are enjoying our parks, programs and golf courses, you will begin to see opportunities to become involved in our next park needs assessment – online and in person. Your views will help guide our research and analysis over the course of the study and plan for future park initiatives. You may be one of 15,000 randomly selected residents to receive a survey in the mail asking for your feedback. By mid-summer, a dedicated webpage will provide status updates and announce more opportunities for public input including open forums and informal polls. Once this site is live, you’ll be able to access it from our homepage: www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks. If you would like to receive updates by e-mail, please send your name and e-mail address to Parkmail@fairfaxcounty.gov to say, “Involve me in the Needs Assessment.” The success of our study and our ability to plan effectively relies on your candid views, so whether you receive a survey, are asked to respond to an online poll or receive an invitation to attend a public meeting, we’d appreciate hearing from you. Until then, enjoy your summer in your parks!

QUICKTAKES Water Fun

for Everyone

here’s nothing like cool splash of water on a hot summer day, and the Park Authority offers plenty of water fun options for the whole family! The Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole at Lake Fairfax Park. Experience more than an acre of slides, flumes, sprays, showers, floatables and interactive play features with a Western theme. Most attractions are designed for elementary-age children, although there’s something here for everyone. Tenderfoot Pond, with its pint-sized slides and gentle bubblers, gives toddlers a perfect place for water play. Teenagers can join a game of water volleyball, and everyone has fun going with the flow in a tube on Rattlesnake River. Our Special Harbor sprayground at Lee District Park. This fully accessible complex features Chesapeake Bay-themed attractions including a spraying osprey nest, Chessie the sea serpent, misting sunflowers and a lighthouse. The beach area is quieter with softer bubblers and interactive water tables. The computerized water maze and dumping crab basket provide more lively activity. Aqua shoes must be worn by everyone who enters the spray pad. Limited shoes are available for purchase in a variety of sizes and can also be purchased at area department stores. Plunge into a pool at all nine Park Authority RECenters! Pools are indoors, so there’s no risk of sunburn. From lap swimming in the main pool to casual water fun in the leisure pool, everyone gets to play in the water. The Cub Run RECenter leisure pool offers additional options with slides, bubblers, fountains, a “river” current and other fun features. RECenter admission includes pool privileges.* For hours of operation, admission rates and other information, see the Attractions section of Parktakes. *Pool hours vary depending on scheduled activities, such as swim meets, classes and annual pool maintenance. For up-to-date information, call the RECenter of your choice, or see each RECenter’s pool calendar online at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks.

Q U I C K TA K E S

For Outdoor Thrills, Try Nature Explorers Camp

f a picture is worth a thousand words, this one from Nature Explorers Camp tells it all. Declan Casey took one look at the photo and remembered how he (pictured crouching) felt last summer when he cheered on the little girl in pink. “I was excited that the girl caught a fish,” said the 8-year-old Oakton Elementary School student. “I was giving her instructions and cheering her on because I wanted her to do it again. She almost caught it again!” Declan also reminisced about his own accomplishments in Nature Explorers Camp at Lake Fairfax, which includes nature walks, building a bird house, learning about life in the great outdoors and more. “It’s really fun. You get to do stuff that people don’t do that often, like boating and fishing, and you learn how animals survive in the cold places and hot places. I learned how to fish, and was the only one (camper) who put a worm on the hook,” he said proudly. Other fond memories include a scavenger hunt and afternoon visits to the Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole. “He seemed to like it,” said Declan’s mother, Gretchen Casey. “Each day there were planned activities with a naturalist, and I was very pleased with the professionalism of the staff.” In addition to connecting with the camp counselors, Declan says there’s one other important benefit to camp – making new friends. “I had lot of friends,” he said. “Will was my best friend at camp.” The Park Authority offers a wide variety of indoor and outdoor summer camps. To find a camp near you, turn to the Camps section.

Drama Camp Gets Rave Reviews!

Summer 2014

oung theater enthusiasts are wild about the Park Authority’s latest drama camp offering. Moonlit Wings Camp Drama provides showbiz fun with acting and improvisation, music and choreography, character creation, set design and more. Each two-week session features a new play and theme, culminating with a performance for parents and friends on the last day of camp. “My daughter loved the opportunity to get in small groups and write a skit then act it out,” said one parent who responded to a camp survey. Another parent wrote,“The play was age-appropriate, and the kids all got to be involved.” Another big hit with the child actors: daily RECenter swimming breaks. For this year’s camp locations and dates, turn to the Camp section. 5

ome of the best seats in town for nature-watching, fishing and all-around fun are now at Riverbend Park! The new sit-on-top kayaks have similar hull shapes to traditional designs, but instead of sitting inside the kayak, you sit on an adjustable cushioned seat on top.“Sit-on-top kayaks are wider and more stable than their traditional counterparts, and in warm weather, they are cooler and offer more room to position your legs,” said assistant manager John Callow. “They also offer a really nice benefit for anglers because you sit up a little higher, which makes it easier to

cast a line, and the open deck makes fishing tackle more accessible.” Riverbend has both single and tandem sit-on-tops which allow for parents to paddle in the same boat with their child and are great for couples who want to paddle together. Some of the sights you may see along the Potomac River’s tranquil banks include bald eagles, osprey and wild turkeys as well as ducks, geese, lizards and other wildlife. So whether you’re an experienced kayaker or a beginner, you can rent a kayak or sign up for classes and tours at Riverbend. For more information, turn to the Boating, Fishing and Camping section of Parktakes. In addition to regularly scheduled kayak classes, instructors at Riverbend can accommodate special kayak tour requests for groups of six people age 14 and older. Call the site for more information.

Q U I C K TA K E S

Trailblazing Leader to be Honored

oin us as we officially mark the Gerry Connolly Cross County Trail! The Park Authority Board voted in June 2013 to rename the 40-mile trail in honor of the congressman, whose leadership was instrumental in creating the network during his years as the Providence District Supervisor and then Chairman of the Fairfax County Board of Supervisors. The U.S. Representative celebration to unveil the new trail Gerry Connolly marker honoring Connolly begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday, June 7, at Laurel Hill Park-Giles Run Meadow, 8400 Lorton Road in Lorton, Va. “There are a lot of people who share this honor with me,” Connolly said when he learned the trail was being renamed in his honor. “This project is a true example of what can happen when the local community, volunteers and our elected officials work together. Thanks to that effort we are leaving behind a real gem for future generations to enjoy.” The idea first came to the attention of the county’s elected and appointed leaders in 1999 when Fairfax Trails and Streams proposed linking trail networks owned by the Park Authority, the National

Park Service, Northern Virginia Regional Park Authority, the City of Fairfax and the town of Reston to form a continuous route from Great Falls National Park to Occoquan Regional Park. One of the last significant trail sections added was the Laurel Hill Greenway, a portion of the former Lorton Reformatory located on the rail bed used to transport goods within the prison property. The trail network was officially completed in December of 2005.

Discovery Trail Leads Kids to Summer Fun!

ick up a Summer Discovery Map at one of nine Park Authority historic sites and nature centers and follow the trail to summer fun! The journey offers children age 12 and younger the chance to discover each site’s unique history and mark their progress with a map sticker. Each child who visits four sites receives his or her choice of a free wagon or carousel ride at Frying Pan Farm Park. Those who visit all nine sites get their choice of a pass to the Water Mine or any Fairfax County RECenter. Summer Discovery Maps are available online beginning June 1 at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks, or they may be picked up at Colvin Run Mill, Hidden Oaks Nature Center, Hidden Pond Nature Center, Green Spring Gardens, Sully Historic Site, Ellanor C. Lawrence, Frying Pan Farm, Huntley Meadows and Riverbend parks.

Volunteer Profile Marian Ewell, Ellanor C. Lawrence Park From school groups to birthday parties, Marian Ewell delights in her show-and-tell volunteer role at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park. In addition to creating informational displays and filling in at the visitor center front desk, she teaches children about things they might miss if someone didn’t point them out – things like the earliest signs of spring. “Resident birds start singing quite early, like cardinals, Carolina wrens and house finches,” she said enthusiastically. “I get so much enjoyment being outdoors, and I love being able to teach children about the natural world around us. We live in it, we’re part of it, and modern life insulates us to the extent that we sometimes forget.” Ewell is an experienced naturalist who suspended her career nine years ago when she and her husband decided start a family. Now that their three children are in school, she has more time to volunteer and share her knowledge of nature with park visitors. “Parks are a wonderful resource for everyone around and it’s important for children to grow up feeling a connection to the world they’re a part of,” she said. “They need to recognize there are things out there that are not under our control, like the weather, and we need to adapt to them.” Ewell finds purpose and personal enjoyment in engaging children in the wonders of nature. She says it’s important that they appreciate the world around them and understand the impact of their actions, “so they can be wise stewards when they get older,” she said.

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

Summer 2014

AQUATICS 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.

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 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.

Pee Wee Paddler I (3-5 yrs.) Parent-and-child swim classes make learning seem like a splash party. Sign up and enjoy the fun! Preschooler and Me Swim (3-5 yrs.) Register your preschooler for this class. This class is designed for children and their parents(s) or other favorite adult(s) who want to learn water adjustment, basic swimming and safety skills in a fun environment. Two adults may participate with each child, but each child must have at least one adult. Children not toilet trained must wear thigh-fitting swim diapers and plastic pants. This class is designed especially for children who have limited group social experience and are reluctant to leave their parents. All teaching is done through the adult. Skills: Same as Pee Wee Paddler I. 3AI 3AQ 3AW 3AB 3AS

The Four S’s of Water Safety:

Supervision Secure Swim Safe

Secure your private pool with a locking fence. Learn how to swim well. The Fairfax County Park Authority offers a wide variety of swimming and water safety classes. Swim in safe areas only. It is ideal to swim only in places that are supervised by a lifeguard.

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 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.

More classes online, www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/parktakes

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. • Chandon, 900 Palmer Drive, Herndon • Quinn Farm, 15150 Old Lee Rd., Centreville. • Grist Mill, 4710 Mt. Vernon Memorial Hwy, 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.
