Celebrate the Season at Springfest Fairfax!

As the harbingers of spring start to emerge from the earth, we rejoice at the prospect of warmer weather and enjoying nature in our parks. Celebrate the season with the Park Authority at this year’s Springfest Fairfax event, Saturday, April 30, on the beautiful grounds of The Workhouse Arts Center in Lorton.

This unique, annual celebration commemorates Earth Day and Arbor Day with family friendly

educational and recreational activities. Admission is free.

One main reason for the Park Authority’s existence is to preserve and protect our natural resources, which is why the agency wholeheartedly signed on as a partner for Springfest Fairfax when the event took root three years ago. As we strive to keep the earth healthy, we are also excited to promote healthy lifestyles with this

year’s Springfest theme: Healthy People – Healthy Planet. In addition to interactive games and hands-on activities, children can

participate in this year’s Healthy Strides Fun Run as well as a challenge course. Children will also be thrilled with pony rides, a petting zoo, live

entertainment and a bounce house, while the whole family learns ways to help keep our planet healthy through eco-friendly exhibitors, educational workshops and plant sales. This year, the Fairfax County Restoration Project’s Environmental Film Festival will also be playing all day at Springfest.

So mark your calendar for Springfest Fairfax, Saturday, April 30 from 10 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. at The Workhouse Arts Center, 9518 Workhouse

Way, Lorton, Va. Let’s enjoy the springtime as we strive together to make Fairfax County a greener, cleaner community.

Thrills for All Await

New Water Mineat the

Stake your claim to summer fun at the new Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole at Lake Fairfax Park! The recently expanded waterpark now features family fun with age-appropriate water attractions for everyone from toddlers to teens and beyond. “It was awesome,” said 8-year-old Averie Earle enthusiastically after she tried out the new body flume slides at the park when they opened late last sum-mer. “I will definitely be back!”

The new Water Mine attractions include spraypads, climbable play structures and a tower with three body flume slides that older children enjoy. “The slides are a lot bigger than the older ones, and faster and fun for the kids,” said Ashraf Quadan, who accompanied his three children, Salma, 6; Zania, 10 and Raghad, 11 to the park last summer. The new features complement the traditional water slides, spouts, showers, geysers and tubing on the Rattlesnake River that younger children have enjoyed for years.

“This is great because I have a 6-year-old and a 14-year-old and now the Water Mine can accommodate both of them,” said Allyson Jurutka who accompanied her sons to the park late last summer. While she and her younger son, Nate, enjoyed the features for younger children, her older son Ben took the plunge down the bigger, new body flume slides. “My favorite are the yellow and green slides,” he said. “It’s dark going down the slide, and you don’t see the twists and turns.” His buddy, 13-year-old Christian Geiger, agreed. “The new slides are pretty fast,” he said. “I close my eyes while going down, and you feel this rush when you hit the water and you get water all over. It’s like a surprise.”

The new slides are closely supervised by well-trained lifeguards. Guards at

the top of the slides help assure order as children wait in line to take their turn. They use brightly colored flags that correspond with the slide colors to commu-nicate to the lifeguards below that the next person is about to slide down. This signals the ground-level guards to assure a safe ride by making sure no one else one else is on the slide below.

“I’ve been watching them, and I am very impressed with how they watch the children,” said Paula Earle, who treated granddaughter Averie Earle and her two friends to a day at the Water Mine late last summer. She knew the girls were hav-ing a good time when she suggested they head home after a full day at the park.

“Are you guys ready to go?”“No!” “Okay. We’ll stay as long as you want.” “Yay!”Earle says the Water Mine has been a family fun destination since her children

were young, and she looks forward to creating new memories here with her grandchildren for years to come. “The price is really reasonable,” she said. “The picnic area is nice, we bring in our own bag lunches, snacks and drinks, and it’s something we can do on weekdays.”

The Water Mine opens May 28 for the 2016 season.

Explore your favorite Fairfax County lakefront park after dark this summer and learn about the creatures that swim, crawl and soar around you! The Park Authority’s new lakefront nature programs are led by a naturalist who expands your horizons beyond boating, fishing and camping. “Many people already enjoy Burke Lake, Lake Accotink and Lake Fairfax parks for recreational activities,” said naturalist Tony Bulmer, “and we wanted to expand our offerings so that people could also learn about the plants and wildlife that live in each park.”

You may not realize it, but a lot goes on in the natural world once the sun goes down. “Bats fly at night, and they are the only true flying mammal in the world,” Bulmer said. “Amphibians use the safety of night to breed, and 16 frog species call Fairfax County home. Reptiles are cold-blooded and can’t control their own temperature, so to escape summer’s daytime heat, they become nocturnal and roam at night.”

Extend your day at the lake into the evening by registering for a program, and see bats feeding on insects at the woodland’s edge or to learn the habits and habitats of the misunderstood water snake or to discover how to identify frogs and toads by their nighttime calls. See for yourself what’s playing in the park after dark.

To find an evening nature program at your favorite lakefront park, turn to the Nature section of Parktakes.

Chart your course for a new kayaking class at Lake Accotink this summer. Learn how to captain a sit-on-top kayak, and take command of the water as you take in the spectacular scenery and the wildlife with a naturalist guide.

“The program starts in the beach area where you learn to paddle, turn, go straight and get comfortable with the kayak,” said lakefront program manager Chris Gold-becker. “Then you skirt the shoreline and begin to navigate the water.”

Some of the wildlife you can expect to see are turtles, ducks, great blue herons and possibly a bald eagle. “We know at least one bald eagle is nesting in that area, and people have seen them swooping down and catching fish in the lake,” Goldbecker said.

There have also been reports of cormorants in the area. “They dive-bomb the lake and disappear under the water to catch fish, then they pop up and fly off,” Goldbecker said.

Right now, the program at Lake Accotink involves single-person kayaks. Gold-becker expects it to expand to two-person kayaks later this year.

Kayaking programs are offered at several Park Authority sites. To find one near you, turn to the Boating, Fishing and Camping section.

Here’s your chance to rally around summer fun in parks! Plan your

personal campaign strategy with this year’s Park Authority Discovery Trail Map – Presidential

Edition. The map features 12 distinctive sites that give students age 17 and younger the chance

to discover each park’s unique features and connections to U.S. Presidents or their administrations. Visit eight or more

parks on the Discovery Trail Map and you'll win tickets to more park fun valued at more than $80. You'll also

be entered in a drawing for one of three bicycles. Maps will be available at any staffed Park

Authority location, at any Fairfax County Public Library and online at

www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks beginning Saturday, May 28.

Pickleball – A Game for All Ages

It is noon on Tuesday at the Spring Hill RECenter gym, and people are all smiles learning how to play the game with a quirky name – pickleball. The racquet sport com-bines elements of badminton, tennis and ping pong for a family-friendly fun time.

“Pickleball is a very fun, social game and can be played by people of all ages,” said Helen White, who teaches a pickleball class at Spring Hill RECenter. “It’s easy to learn, easy on the body and a great way to work on cardio, balance and strength.”

In pickleball, two, three, or four players use solid paddles made of wood or composite materials to hit a perforated polymer ball, similar to a wiffle ball, over a net. The sport shares features of other racquet sports, the dimensions and layout of a badminton court, and a net and rules similar to tennis, with a few modifications. “You play to 11 points, and you only score if you are serving,” White said. “You can play singles or doubles, and most people prefer to play doubles.” A game can be played in about 15 minutes.

It’s said that necessity is the mother of invention, and you could say that’s what inspired the game. “Pickleball was invented in the mid-1960s by a couple of dads in Washington State who returned home after playing a game of golf one Saturday afternoon to find their families were bored,” White said. “They tried to set up badminton, but no one could find the birdie, so they improvised with a wiffle ball, lowered the net and fabricated paddles of plywood from a nearby shed.”

It didn’t take long for pickleball to catch on. In 1976, Tennis magazine called it “America’s newest racquet sport,” and in 1984, the USA Pickleball Association (USAPA) formed to promote the sport across the world. Today, an estimated 2.9 million players enjoy the game at approximately 4000 locations across the country, and now you can learn to play the game at Spring Hill and Audrey Moore RECenters.

For pickleball class times and locations, turn to the Sports section of Parktakes.

What’s in a Name?Pickleball

was invented by U.S. Rep. Joel Pritchard and his golf-ing buddies, Bill Bell and Barney Mc-Callum. Some people believe

the name pickleball was derived from the Pritchard family dog,

who was named Pickles, but according to Rep. Pritchard’s wife, Joan, the name came “after I said it reminded me of the pickle boat in crew where oarsmen were chosen from the leftovers of other boats.” She says the dog became the family pet two years after the game was invented, and the dog was named for the game.

Volunteer Spotlight

Find out how you can get involved. Visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/volunteers.htmVOLUNTEER!

Stop by the Providence RECenter fitness room on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings, and you’re sure to

notice Barry Stoll, the facility’s volunteer fitness room attendant.

He has an easy rapport with the patrons here, and laughter usually ensues

as he engages the customers with his friendly banter as he tidies up the room and keeps an eye out for equipment issues. “Exercise should be fun and en-joyable,” he said, “and that interaction with people

and getting a positive response in return is fulfilling to me.”In addition to keeping the fitness room clean and helping familiarize new

RECenter members with the amenities, Stoll, who is also a certified fitness instructor, prides himself on looking out for the safety of everyone who use the fitness facility. “I’m big on

trying to help people use proper form,” he said. “You have to use the fitness equipment correctly or you don’t achieve the greatest benefit, and you risk injury,” he said.

“He knows what he’s doing,” said one appreciative patron who has benefitted from Stoll’s guidance.

Stoll, a retired federal government environmental engineer, remembers similar guidance he received shortly after he started taking drop-in fitness classes at Providence more than a decade

ago. “I took an Ab Attack class and initially thought it was the hardest thing I had ever done,” he recalled. “The teacher would go around the room and check form,

and I got into the routine and it became easier,” he said. Now Stoll teaches the class on a volunteer basis three times per week. “We usually have at

least 12 or 13 show up, and we have really gotten to know one another as friends,” he said. “It’s the camaraderie of the class that keeps people coming back.”

It’s been said that age is an equalizer, and Stoll, 71, has been volunteering here three mornings per week since he retired in

2002. No one could blame him if he decided to slow down and turn his full attention to his other passion – tinkering

with classic British MGB sports cars. But to Stoll, that would be like turning his back on family. “I have no intention of stopping,” he said with conviction. “I consider myself a resource, and the people here can rely on me. The social connection with the staff and the customers keeps me coming back.”

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 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 levelsWhen enrollment is low, course levels may be com-bined to avoid class cancelations.

It’s never too early to learn to swim, and children have a ball navigating the water with help from their favorite adult in Toddler & Me swim classes.

Practice Healthy Swimming HabitsAccidents 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, 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 dia-pers 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.

low-income families, have all benefitted from the company’s support. Falk says parks and family entertainment tie in nicely with a Cox core value that’s been in place since the com-pany was founded in 1898.

“James M. Cox founded Cox Enterprises with the belief that we should be a good corporate citizen in the communities we serve,” she said. “Supporting the Summer Entertain-ment Series is a part of that picture here in Virginia, where Cox Communications donated nearly $6 million in cash and in-kind support to our local communities through special events, sponsorships, volunteer efforts, public service campaigns and program support.”

Falk says Cox is also committed to company and community conservation efforts, which tie in well with the Park Authority’s mission to preserve natural resources and promote envi-ronmental sustainability. “It helps make Fairfax County a better place and that is what we are striving for,” Falk said.

Dog Training One-on-OneLake 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.

HOLIDAY CLOSINGSAny exception to regular schedules will be announced by the instructor at the first class.

IN THE EVENT OF BAD WEATHERThe Park Authority has implemented a new procedure for weather-related cancelations and closures. Beginning Nov. 1 2015, the Park Author-

ity will follow the Fairfax County Government closures, rather than those of the public schools.

• Classes held at school locations may be can-celed, even when classes at RECenters and other Park Authority and Government loca-tions are running. For the latest information on weather related closures and cancellations, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks or call the Park Authority inclement weather information line: (703) 324-8661.

• Cancellation information is also communicated via local television and radio stations and Fairfax County government cable channel 16 and 21.

• Decisions on cancelations for classes held at vendor locations are made independently. Customers should call the location where the class is being held.

• For tour cancelation information, call the tours hotline, 703-324-8687.

REFUNDS • FCPA will automatically post a full credit to

your member account when a class or program is canceled in its entirety. If individual meetings are canceled by the FCPA due to circumstances like inclement weather, a credit will be applied to your member account at the end of the program session for any classes not made up.

• FCPA will issue a full refund when a class or program is changed by FCPA, and the change makes it impossible for the customer to con-tinue with the class.

When a customer cancels a registration, the following fees apply per registration:Classes• Request received 14 or more days prior to the

start date - full refund.

• Request received 13 or fewer days prior to the start date - $10 processing fee applied

• Request received on class start date - refund minus cost of one class and $10 processing fee.

• Request received after start date - prorated refund based on number of classes passed and $10 processing fee.

• Requests for refunds must be submitted prior to the end of the session.

• Refunds or class credits are not issued for missed individual meetings of a class.
