Your Guide to Recreation, Fun & Fitness

Fall 2021

Message From The Director

Greetings! Thank you for connecting with our virtual Leisure Magazine—Prince William County’s go-to source for all things recreation. Albert Camus wrote, autumn is a second spring when every leaf is a flower. Indeed, there is no better place to experience the wondrous beauty of fall than in our 5,000-acre mosaic of parks, trails, and historic sites. If the crisp air beckons you outside, plan a bike ride along the new greenway trail at the Occoquan Wildlife Refuge or hike the longest boardwalk in the region at Neabsco Regional Park. Take in 18 holes at the newly renovated Forest Greens Golf Course or tour the historic Brentstville Jail Exhibit to learn about the early days of Prince William County. In addition to 80 parks and 50 miles of trail, we offer hundreds of fitness and instructional classes for all ages and abilities, including adaptive programs such as Come On, Get Happy! on October 2nd at Silver Lake Park. Learn to Kayak on the Occoquan Reservoir at Lake Ridge Park on September 18th or hone your skills at identifying songbirds on November 13th the Pat White Community Center. If you are looking for a nature-based pre-school where mud and bugs are celebrated, consider the Grō program at Long Park, a curriculum that has been lauded by Virginia First Lady, Pam Northam. We also offer other state-licensed preschool programs at Chinn and Sharron Baucom/Dale City Aquatic and Fitness Centers and Veterans Memorial Park & Community Center. Register now while spots are still available! The fall season is also brimming with special events such as the Brentsville Bluegrass Concert Series (August 14th, September 11th and October 9th), The First Tee® Golf Tournament at Forest Greens Golf Course on October 11th, the Kids for Kids Triathlon at Chinn Aquatic and Fitness Center on September 19th, and Arts Alive! on September 12th at the Hylton Performing Arts Center. And don’t forget to shop the Dale City Farmer’s Market on Sunday mornings for a wide selection of artisan goods and the freshest produce in Prince William County: www.dalecitymarket.org. I am grateful you chose Prince William County for your recreation needs and wish you and your family a vibrant fall season. Our passionate staff is committed to ensuring you have an exceptional experience. Please let us know how we’re doing and don’t hesitate to ask for assistance. May you strive to be your best self with Prince William County Parks, Recreation & Tourism as your partner!

FITNESS SPECIAL EVENT Ages 14+ Today, more people seek yoga as a way to rid the body of pain or discomfort. Many doctors even “prescribe” yoga to their patients. But is all yoga beneficial to all students when it comes to back care? The truth is every “body” has its own set of unique needs. If you have back pain, or just want to know how to prevent it, this workshop is for you! We will have lecture and discussion time to review some of the common conditions which may be causing discomfort and how we can begin to practice yoga in a self-compassionate way, learning ways to work with those conditions to foster wellbeing. We will also journey through a yoga class designed to explore some of the poses we will learn about in our lecture/ discussion. Detailed instructions and modifications will be offered. NOTE: Please bring a blanket for comfort. Mats, blocks, and straps provided. If you have a diagnosed back condition, please check in with your health provider before starting any exercise program.
