The Fairfax County Park Authority turns 65 this year! Weve gone from a great idea with few resources to a robust, nationally-acclaimed system with facilities and programs that span the needs of a diverse, multi-faceted community. With nearly 24,000 acres of parkland, we are among the areas largest providers of recreation as well as stewards of open space, forests, historic sites, and a popular network of connecting trails.

The Park Authority provides great value to community residents for just a tiny portion of each households property tax bill. These General Fund contributions combine with revenues from golf courses, RECenters and summer camps paid for by folks who enjoy those services. With these dollars and voter-supported capital funding, we work hard to provide what you need top flight municipal golf courses, trails, expanded fitness centers, equestrian programs and skate parks, places for dogs to run, athletic fields, gardens, nature centers and stream valley parks that provide serenity and wildlife habitat. The list is long.

Over the next few months the Park Authority, hand-in-hand with the Park Foundation, will entice you to join the 65th Anniversary celebration. Look for details about a winter celebration at Frying Pan Farm Park. Learn about our past from our online Park Authority timeline this fall. Bring your talent and passion for words to our poetry slam at Huntley Meadows Park.

Our theme is 65 Years of Making Parks Count, a fitting tribute in a year dedicated to a needs assessment survey, which will help us determine future

development and better understand your desires for parks. Thousands have already participated, and we appreciate that input.

We invite you to meet your parks anew there are more than 400. Visit again, and discover something different bluebells at a riverfront park, stories around a roaring campfire, history come to life, the Water Mine, Clemyjontri Park, flying squirrels at a nature center, maple syrup fresh from a tree, or just-picked produce

at a farmers market. Enjoy a free summer concert, a slide on a playground, a picnic at a lakeside pavilion or a wagon ride through

pastoral farmland. Ride a carousel, or make memories on a train. Camp under the stars or play mini-golf perfect family adventures. Fairfax County

loves its parks. Seventeen million visits a year tell us that. You make us count. We count on you to support your nationally accredited, award-winning parks. Come back again and again.

To look at Greg Fuge now, you see a cheer-ful, young man who is the picture of health in

the prime of his life. He says its an image hes still getting used to, because it wasnt that

long ago that he got a worrisome report from his doctor, and he knew something had to change. Fuge was just 23 years old and nearly 100 lbs. overweight. I was at the height of my inactivity in

life, he said. I ate a lot of fast food, didnt get a lot of exercise and my blood pressure, blood sugar and cholesterol

were way too high. For someone in his 20s, thats ridiculous.

Fuge took the doctors report as a wake-up call and started to develop his strategy for shaping up. It had

been a while since the former Falls Church High School triathlete had done anything physical, so he decided to start slowly and enlist the help of a fitness specialist at Providence RECenter. I started by working with a personal trainer, Sean Smith, to expand the knowledge of what I can do with weights and other equipment in the fitness room, and I got set up on the Fitlinxx computer system so I could track my progress, he said.

He also received encouragement from other patrons at the RECenter, where Fuge works as a manager on duty (MOD), and he drew inspiration from members three and four times his age who make fitness a priority. Id be working at the front desk and Id see these 75-year-old men come in and they were in amazing shape, he said. They were daily reminders that I needed to take care of myself in fitness and nutrition so I can be ac-tive like them when Im their age.

Today, the 28-year-old George Mason University student watch-es what he eats and works out five days per week. Hes 100 lbs. lighter than he was when he got that eye-opening report from his

doctor five years ago, and he has learned the value of slow, steady progress. Crash diets dont work, he said. Gradual changes are the ones that seem to last the longest.

To stay motivated, Fuge says he tracks everything from his work-outs to his meals via spreadsheets and a free phone app called My Fitness Pal. I learned about the app from someone in the fitness room, he said. He also plans and prepares most of his meals at home, and he sets attainable weekly fitness goals. Its the little victories that keep you motivated as you reflect on them and see the progress over time, he said. Now, Fuge is among those inspiring others to victory at Providence RECenter. Its never too late to get started and invest in your own muscular and cardiovascular infrastructure, he said. Fuge sees it as a lifetime investment that will pay big dividends for years to come.

Build on your personal fitness goals at Fairfax County RECenters where youll find a variety of exercise options ranging from swimming and exercise classes to personal training and fitness rooms. To learn more, call or visit a RECenter near you. See page 12 for locations.

Barre [br]Noun A horizontal

bar at waist level on which ballet dancers rest a hand for

support during exercises.Source: Oxford Dictionary

Raising the Barre

for FitnessLearn the secrets of dancers in the Park Authoritys hottest new fitness toning class, Barre

Workout. This class incorporates ballet exercises, barres and light weights to help you tone and define your muscles for a total-body workout.

Its a lot of fun, and the instructor does a good job of doing a full-body workout, said student Joan Ray during a class at Spring

Hill RECenter. Even if you think youre not good at ballet, that doesnt matter. All you really need is long, lean move-ments and a desire to be fit.

Student Laura Twining agrees. I didnt really know what it was going to be like, she said. I found it challenging,

considering I exercise a lot, and I found that it helps tone muscles that I dont ordinarily use a lot.

The class incorporates a wide variety of low-impact exercises to increase stamina, flexibility and strength. Low-impact aerobic exercises and light weights are usually per-formed first, followed by ballet movements at the barre that require balance and stimulate core muscles, such as plis. The class con-cludes with stretching to promote long, lean muscles.

To find a Barre Workout class at a RECenter near you, turn to the Exercise and Fitness section.

Its easy to see why creativity comes easy for children enrolled in Art Above and Beyond class. Their teacher, Christina Mark, is a veteran pre-school and elementary educator who knows how to connect with kids with a variety of weekly projects. We use mixed mediums, and every week we do something different, Mark said. One week we might do a wood sculpture and the next week might be a canvas painting, for ex-ample. Sometimes the budding artists get to use a modeling compound or clay to make a three-dimensional work of art. Were learning how to make frogs out of clay, said 5-year-old Laila Howell enthusiastically during one class as she painted her frog in shimmering silver. Sometimes we make beautiful colors by mixing colors.

While creativity is the primary focus of this class at Wakefield Park, theres more to Art Above and Beyond than meets the eye. The children learn how to fol-low directions and practice social skills, and I love to see the looks on their faces when they make discoveries, Mark said. Most of them underestimate themselves at first, and when they see a finished product, theyre so proud of themselves. Some children in a spring class were so proud of their frogs; they decided to give them away to

a very special recipi-ent. Im going to give mine to my mother for Mothers Day, said 5-year-old Eliana Elias, who opted to paint her frog a brilliant pink. Her classmate, 6-year-old Nicholas Pang, had a

similar plan for his silver, blue and orange frog. Im going to go into my mothers room at nighttime and surprise her with it, he said with eager anticipation.

Theres no telling what the children will get to create from week to week in Art Above and Beyond class. Howell says one thing is for sure. We are having a lot of fun!

To find an Art Above and Beyond class near you, or to explore other creative sessions for all ages, turn to the Fine Arts and Crafts section of Parktakes.

FootGolf Tees Off at Pinecrest

Its Sunday afternoon at Pinecrest Golf Course in Alexandria, and players have

abandoned the usual golf tee time for what some might consider kickoff time in the new-

est sport sweeping the nation footgolf a combination of soccer and golf. Its really fun, said 13-year old Andre Lamarque in a game with his friends Sebastian Boos and Harrison DiPetto. We really like soccer and golf, and this is a new sport for us.

Footgolf is especially popular with soccer enthusiasts like Steven Novotny and Jeff Homens, who grew up playing club soccer together near Baltimore. Now 26 and employed in the D.C. area, the child-hood friends are excited about the prospect of playing footgolf at Pinecrest, the only footgolf course in Fairfax County. Its inside the beltway, which is nice, and the game is super fun, Novotny said. Homens agreed. Its an excellent way to work on your [soccer] skills in a relaxed manner, he said. I played [foot-golf] once in Milwaukee, and this course is a lot nicer.

Footgolf rules are similar to regular golf rules from the tee box to the greens, bunkers, hazards and holes of play. The difference is you dont need any special skills to play footgolf. If you can kick a ball, you can play footgolf, said Pinecrest manager Sarah Oberther. Players can either bring their own soccer ball or rent one at the clubhouse.

In footgolf, groups of up to four players take their turns kicking their ball toward each hole and walk the course or ride in a golf cart. While the soccer ball doesnt travel as far in the air as a golf ball, it rolls much farther in the fairways. Holes are 21 inches around and about 14 inches deep, and they are placed away from the traditional golf holes. The goal is to get your soccer ball to land in each footgolf hole with the fewest number of kicks. Scorecards display par scores for each hole as in regulation golf and can be used to determine the winner.

Footgolf is played throughout the world in many different forms, and as a sport in the United States, it is governed by The American FootGolf League (AFGL). In just four years since the AFGL was founded, 418 courses nationwide have launched footgolf programs, and Pinecrest Golf Course is one of only three in Va. certified by the AFGL.

Though the game is just getting started at Pinecrest, enthusiasts like Novotny expect it to catch on like wildfire. This is such a great activity for former soccer players, and this area is so soccer heavy, this course is going to blow up with events once the word gets out, he said.

An 18-hole round of footgolf is just $12 per person (walking) if you bring your own ball or $15 if you rent a ball at the clubhouse. Footgolf tee times are available at Pinecrest on Saturday and Sunday afternoons starting at 1:30 p.m., and power carts are available for an additional charge. To reserve a footgolf tee time or for more information, call (703) 941-1061.

If you can kick a ball, you can play

Civic Sportsmanship Keeps Park CleanNearly one year after Sully Highlands Park opened in Herndon, the state-of-

the-art athletic complex looks as pristine as it did on opening day. Its a source of community pride, said Ralph Wills whose sweat equity in this complex dates back to the tail end of his 40-year career with the Fairfax County Park Author-ity Operations Division. Now, his service continues as a park volunteer and a member of the Chantilly Youth Association (CYA), which is spearheading the trash-free zone initiative at this park. All of our parks are great facilities, and we need to take care of them, he said. Stewardship is everyones responsibility.

Sully Highlands Park was established through a partner-ship between the Park Authority, the athletic community and local developers. Keeping the park clean through the trash-free zone initiative not only saves taxpayers the cost of paying crews to clean up the park after a full weekend of use, it keeps away scavenging animals and birds. The birds have strewn trash all over, Wills recalled from his former park experiences, and the Park Authority doesnt have the manpower. Thats why on any given weekend, youll find Wills and CYA executive director Mark Abbott marshaling Sully High-lands Park, reminding visitors of the trash-free initiative and asking them to take home any trash they brought into the park, such as food wrappers and drink cans. Were pretty confident that by asking people to do it, theyll do it. Abbott said. We get very little pushback. In fact, parents like Shenley Williams see it as a good lesson in civic sportsmanship for their children after their games end. I think its nice, and its easy enough for us to do, she said. It keeps the fields really clean, and it keeps the animals and birds away. Hopefully we can keep it up for years to come.

The pilot trash-free zone initiative at Sully Highlands Park will be evaluated for its effectiveness after one year. Wills hopes it turns out to be a winning strategy for keeping other parks clean throughout Fairfax County. Its time and effort, but it works, he said.

Partnership Provides Access to Night Skies

Get ready for more opportunities to peer into the night skies, see craters and mountains on the moon, the belts of Jupiter, rings of Saturn, far away galaxies, and more at Turner Farm in Great Falls. The Analemma Society and the Fairfax County Park Authority are teaming up to build a new rolltop observatory, including four telescopes on mounts. The new observatory is expected to be completed in early 2016 and will allow view-ing in a wider range of conditions and in a more protected environment.

Currently year round, the general public is in-vited to join the Analemma Society and Northern Virginia Astronomy Club on clear Friday nights at Turner Farm to see an array of celestial wonders and learn about science through astronomy. On sunny Saturdays and Sundays, Turner Farm visi-tors can see a beautiful sundial. Programming and sundial viewing is free to participants thanks to the dedication of knowledgeable volunteers.

Find out more about available programming, including closures due to weather and events, online at www.analemma.org. Teachers and scout groups should contact the Analemma Society in advance to ensure enough telescopes are avail-able on Friday nights.

To learn about other science-based activities in parks, turn to the Nature and Science section of Parktakes.

For the past five years, Judy Nitsche has been putting her green

thumb to work in the Sully Historic Site federal-period garden. Her service came at a time when budget cuts left the previously

staffed garden unattended, and the neglect took its toll. There were lots of weeds, she recalled, and when I first started volunteering, I pulled a lot of weeds.

These days, thanks to volunteers like Nitsche, the garden at Sully and other park sites have never looked so beautiful, and the volunteers have filled in the

ranks in other areas as well. During the winter months, Nitsche serves as a docent in Sullys historic house giving tours and helping with

historical programs. In addition, she volun-teers in the county library system

and uses the countys online volunteer management system to track her service hours and to see other

available volunteer positions throughout Fairfax County.

The Park Authority's volunteer opportunities were recently added to

the database. I cant tell you how many people have come through Sully and

said, I didnt know you did things like this. For anybody who wants to volunteer, the new system gives you the opportunity to go in and see the

opportunities that are available and choose from a whole lot of offerings, she said.

Nitsche says the online volunteer management system helps make the process more efficient for both the people who want to volunteer and the agencies that need them. You fill out the application online, choose the opportunities youre interested in, and the application is sent electronically to those sites, she said. They contact you if they can use your skills.

The online system now serves as Fairfax Countys one-stop shop for volunteer opportunities, and it enables county officials to quickly see how well volunteers are fulfilling needs that might otherwise go unmet. The county needs to know the value of what its getting from its volunteer workforce, Nitsche said. Its phenomenal literally millions of dollars-worth of service.

The Fairfax County Park Authoritys 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 avail-able at the Park Authoritys nine RECenters and online at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/wp-recenter.htm.

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.

Practice Healthy Swimming HabitsAccidents in the pool involving vomit or fecal matter require the pool being closed to clean and sanitize the water. 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 can-

not 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.
