Fairfax County Parks – Where Heroes Play

Fairfax County residents already know what a wonderful park system we have here, and soon 12,000 police officers, firefighters and customs and corrections officers from around the globe will experience it for themselves when they compete in the 2015 World Police and Fire Games June 26 – July 5, 2015. To put that figure in context, that’s about 1500 more athletes than the number of competitors at the 2012 summer Olympics in London, making the World Police and Fire Games one of the largest multi-sport events in the world. We are honored that the site selection committee deemed our award-winning parks to be of the caliber to host an athletic event of this magnitude along with other venues in the metro D.C. area

The public safety athletes will compete in more than 60 sporting events during the international games. The police service dog, cross country and rugby competitions will all take place at Lake Fairfax Park, while Braddock and Wakefield parks will host the softball competitions, and golfers will tee up at Laurel Hill Golf Club. All of the events are free to the public, and I encourage you take advantage of this rare opportunity to see the world’s top public safety heroes demonstrate athletic excellence. You can find the event schedule at www.fairfax2015.com.

When the games are over and the competitors have gone home, put your own athletic skills to the test at Laurel Hill or on our park ball fields or along our scenic trails. See for yourself why our park system is a three-time national gold medal winner and a worthy place where heroes play.

This year’s Cardboard Boat Regatta launches on May 31 at 2 p.m. at Lake Accotink Park. The event is free for spectators ($4 parking). Entry fees range from $20 to $30 for competitors. For more information, visit www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/lake-accotink.

Grab your crew and captain your cardboard boat cre-ation in this year’s Cardboard Boat Regatta at Lake Acco-tink Park! Whether you’re racing or just watching, it’s always a thrill to see which boats will sink and which will float to the finish in this popular summertime event.

“I think this was one of the most fun things I ever did,” said 17-year-old Josie McGraw whose team, The Honey Badgers, won in the 15 to 50 age group category last year. “We had to race three times, and by the third time, it [the boat] was just gone.”

McGraw and her two teenage teammates, Teresa Steenman and Jessica “Ducky” Novis spent two weekends building their boat out of cardboard, most of which came from a new neigh-bor’s moving boxes, and duct tape. “I can't remember exactly, but I think we went through 3 to 4 rolls of duct tape,” Steen-man said.

They knew the craft would be judged on both design and seaworthiness. “The three of us brainstormed lots of ideas for the boat,” Steenman recalled. “We had arguments over it –

how big to make it, how it was going to turn, but we started folding cardboard, and it came together,” McGraw said. They watched a video clip of a former race and noted a single competitor in a small boat who inspired their team’s name. “He was older,

maybe in his 20s or 30s, and he was just paddling around and didn’t seem to care about the race,” McGraw said. “We came up with Honey Badgers because honey badgers just don’t care.”

They emphasized their attitude with written messages on their boat, “…like ‘Don’t sink,’ or ‘Hope you can swim,’ funny stuff like that,” Mc-Graw said. Other messages included, “Get ready for synchronized sinking,” “Modern Day Titanic,” and “If you can read this, we aren’t drown-ing, YET.” McGraw says the Honey Badgers’ motivation was more about having fun than competing, but she admits her crew started to care, “when we realized we were winning.”

Hidden talents may have given the Honey Badgers an edge in the race. Both McGraw and Novis have rowing experience as members of their high school crew team, and they took measures to make sure Steenman knew her way around an oar, too. “We took Teresa out canoeing to teach her about paddling,” McGraw said.

There’s no decision yet on whether the Honey Badgers will defend their crown this year. But McGraw has some advice for anyone else who is contemplating the challenge. “Just have fun, and be prepared to get wet,” she said. Win or lose, she says there’s a certain amount of self-satisfaction that comes with just rising to the occasion. “It’s something that you can say later on that you did,” she said.

Farm Camp – a Kid’s Summer Fun Frontier

Features

Summer 20156

Cultivate your children’s curiosity about life on the farm by signing them up for Junior Farmer Camp at Frying Pan Farm Park. In this roundup of rural life, kids get to roll up their sleeves and do everything the farmer would do like harvesting crops, washing and feeding the animals and pitching in with farm chores.

“My favorite part of all was when we got to go into the chicken pen and get the eggs,” said Danny Fortuno, who attended last year’s camp. “I saw their little homes and it looked comfy to me even though I’m not a chicken. I got to put the eggs in a basket to bring to the store so people could buy them.”

The 10-year-old camper from Ashburn also spent time in the barn. “I milked a goat and milked a cow,” he said enthusiastically. “It was fun and interesting because all you need to do is pull the thing that the milk comes out of and the milk comes down in a bucket. They also have a machine that can do it, and I didn’t know you could milk a cow with a machine.”

Fortuno says he learned a lot about farm machinery, caring for livestock and what it takes to survive on a farm. He remembers seeing piglets when they were just one day old. “There were 15 baby pigs,” he recalled fondly. “I learned that if too many people hold a baby pig, the pig can get disease and get sick, so only one person got to hold the baby pig.”

He remembers tales of one animal resident’s escape and what it taught him. “We heard the story of a peacock that escaped out of his cage and flew to the school at Frying Pan Park. I didn’t know peacocks can fly. I thought they could not fly at all. That was interesting to me.”

And when it comes to the crops, he learned that timing means the difference between a bountiful har-vest and going hungry. “I learned you have to pick the vegetables before they rot. We picked strawber-ries, lettuce, tomatoes, celery – a lot of vegetables – some I didn’t even know of.”

Fortuno says he had so much fun at Junior Farmer Camp last year, he plans to attend a similar camp at Frying Pan Farm Park this summer. “I want to take it again because it was fun, and I want to learn a little bit more, see the animals, pet them and take care of them,” he said.

The Park Authority offers a wide variety of summer camps to suit just about every child’s interest from science and nature to sports and performing arts. For more information, turn to the Camps section of Parktakes.

Preserving Yesterday’s Treasures for Future Generations

2015 marks the 200th anniversary of the end of a war that Americans once called “the second war for inde-pendence,” the War of 1812. Tucked away in the Fairfax County Park Authority’s archaeological collection lies an artifact from an important battle in that war; the Battle of the White House.

“You’ve heard of the bombs bursting in air that we sing about in the Star Spangled Banner,” said historical archae-ologist Aimee Wells as she carefully opened a wooden box at the James Lee Community Center in Falls Church. “Well, this is one of those bombs bursting in air.” The 200-lb. mortar shell, believed to have been fired by the British Royal Navy, was recovered from the Potomac River in 1959 by engineers from Fort Belvoir. The Park Author-ity is holding it in trust along with more than three million historical and archaeological pieces that chronicle life in Fairfax County.

Archaeological work is painstakingly slow, and the artifacts recovered date from prehistoric times to the 20th century. Some people may not understand the impor-tance of these artifacts, such as pottery fragments, stone tools, straight pins or beads, but Wells says they’re all very important clues to the past and the people who lived here in Fairfax County. “These are straight pins made of copper alloy that were recovered from the Colchester area,” she said. “They date back to 1750 and are a sign of domestic life – they tell us that women were there.”

Wells considers a piece of pottery dating to the 18th cen-tury among the more exciting Fairfax County finds. “The pottery is made from local Virginia clay and was decorated and used by slaves. This is a rare find because it’s not fired at a high temperature and usually disintegrates over time.” Wells believes the piece survived because it was sheltered from the elements in the sub-floor pit of a slave cabin. “It was high on a hill, so water drained off, and I think that’s what saved it.”

“The people we often miss are women and slaves because they were not landowners, so there aren’t many written records of them,” Wells said. “If I can give them a voice through artifacts, I’m thrilled.” Fairfax County’s rich Civil War history is represented by artifacts such as uniform buttons, musket balls and bayonets. There are also items that represent day-to-day life, such as a shaving cup, imported English porcelain and a wig curler recovered from Salona, the McLean homestead of Revolutionary War Hero Henry “Lighthorse Harry” Lee and the place where First Lady Dolley Madison took refuge when British troops

burned the White House during the War of 1812. “Ceram-ic wig curlers were used by both men and women. They would tie them on with newspaper or cloth and then set the wig by the fire to dry,” Wells said.

Thousands more historical objects are preserved at Wal-ney, located in Ellanor C. Lawrence Park in Chantilly, and at several other historical sites in Fairfax County. Period clothing, furniture and housewares are carefully stored and cataloged. Architectural drawings of historic landmarks and land maps are meticulously organized and preserved in a controlled environment. Unique items survive to tell the story of bygone days, such as an ice scraper for shaved ice, an old metal bingo cage from Great Falls Grange, origi-nal grain elevator belts and receipts from Colvin Run Mill, tools and milk pans from Frying Pan Farm Park, Cornelia Lee’s 1786 sampler from Sully and antique toys, tea sets and more from other historic sites. “We are rife with things of historical meaning and, thankfully, the people of Fairfax County seem to appreciate it,” said Collections Manager Megan Leining. “People are invested in history here and want to protect it and preserve it for future generations.”

To date, three of the Park Authority’s historic sites are accredited by the American Alliance of Museums (AAM), and Leining and Wells are among those working to earn reaccreditation for all of the Park Authority’s system-wide collections. The standards are high when you consider only about 10 percent of the nation’s 17,000 museums are accredited, but Leining and Wells say the effort is worth-while. “Right now we don’t have the space or funding to interpret museum-staffed exhibits at places other than our historic sites,” said Leining, “but we are open for research, and we allow things to go out on loan to other historical institutions. We also have active loans from individuals as well as organizations such as the DAR, the Sully Founda-tion, and Arlington House. Ultimately, we’d like to give the public access to our historical collections and research online.” The goal is to create an evolving, virtual time cap-sule that forever links future generations to the past.

The Combo Classic Celebrates 25 Years

It is tournament time at FCPA golf courses, and 2015 marks the 25th anniversary of the Combo Classic, a unique tournament at Twin Lakes Golf Course that pairs players with and without disabili-ties together in a two-person scramble format. This year, proceeds will benefit the Park Authority’s new Adapted Golf Instructional Program.

It all started back in 1990 after Cindy Walsh, then the park Authority’s therapeutic recreation coordinator, received a call from a golfer who was a regular player at Jefferson District Golf Course and a member of the Eastern Amputee Golf Association (EAGA). “He played in a lot of EAGA tournaments which were exclusively for golfers with disabilities, and he asked if we had anything like that here,” Walsh recalled. “My focus was always on mainstreaming, so I told him I would be more interested in a tournament where he could play with his father and friends [who did not have a dis-ability], and other people with disabilities could do the same.” The two met and came up with the concept for the Combo Classic.

John Nicholas has played in all but one Combo Classic. The paraplegic lost the use of his legs after a 1985 accident, and he missed the first tournament because equipment wasn’t available for seated players. So, he teamed up with his friends to modify a motorized golf cart by mounting a swivel seat and building a rudimentary hand-control system. Four years after his accident, he hit his first golf ball – a shot that changed the way the Park Authority does business. The agency created more opportu-nities for players with disabilities by adding Nicholas’ specifications for adapted carts to all future golf cart contracts, and now it offers more adapted carts than any other park system in the country.

It’s been years since Walsh served as the Park Authority’s therapeutic recreation coordinator. Now as the agency’s Resource Management Director, she looks back on the tournament she helped start in 1990 and finds it rewarding to know it helped lead to so many more opportunities for players with disabilities. “My mantra has always been to do as much as you can, do the best you can and leave it in better shape for someone else to take it from there,” she said with a smile. “It means I did my job.”

This year’s Combo Classic takes place June 5 and 6 at Twin Lakes Golf Course and is sponsored, in part, by the Fairfax County Park Foundation. For more information or to register, visit www.fairfaxparkfoundation.org, or call Twin Lakes Golf Course, (703) 631-9099 ext. 203.

Adrian Rumingan remembers fitness being a family affair growing up, first playing bas-ketball in the park with his dad, then playing on a team at Bishop O’Connell High School. Later, he developed an interest in martial arts and swimming, and these days the 28-year-old fitness enthusiast trains for triathlon competitions almost daily at Providence RECenter.

“I love it because the pool is here, and in the past year the RECenter installed the Curve in the fitness room,” he said enthusiastically. “It’s my favorite piece of equipment and one that you don’t find in other [commercial] gyms around here.”

The Curve by Woodway is a self-powered treadmill that offers a one-of-a-kind workout for just about anyone, from walkers to serious athletes. The patented running surface is almost frictionless and allows the belt to glide. Combine that with an innovative curved running surface, and you control the pace at will – no electricity required. To speed up you simply start running; to slow down you allow yourself to drift down the curve. It is all about body position and gravity.

“To me, it feels like running outside,” Rumingan said. “You have to push yourself. A mile on the Curve is like doing 1-1/2 miles outside, probably because of the slope, which is about a two to three percent incline.”

Rumingan’s disciplined workout regimen includes 30 minutes in the pool, 30 minutes on the bike and 30 minutes on the Curve, five to six days per week. He says he motivates himself to stay the course by signing up for races and triathlons and by thinking about food. “I can eat a lot more if I work out,” he said with a grin. He also looks forward to the en-couragement he gets from other Providence RECenter members. “Everyone knows every-one here, which is different from other gyms I used to belong to,” he said. “People are very friendly here. There’s a family aspect here at Providence. People encourage each other.”

When Rumingan isn’t training at Providence, he’s usually working as a RECenter Manager on Duty, a lifeguard instructor or a lifeguard. He says RECenter patrons sometimes ask him for fitness advice, and he enjoys motivating others and sharing the camaraderie that comes with the territory.

Summer days are anything but ‘dog days’ to Jacqueline Gillespie and Will MacDonald. For the second year in a row, the Fairfax County teenagers are volunteering to help with Dinosaur Days Camp and other activities at Hidden Oaks Nature Center in Annandale.

“I actually learned a lot about dinosaurs, and it’s crazy how much the kids know,” said Gillespie, a high school sophomore, as she reflected on her first year as a camp volunteer. “The things the kids say; it’s hilarious!”

“Volunteering is a lot more fun than I thought it would be,” said MacDonald, a Boy Scout from West Springfield. “I like educating the kids and helping the kids. It’s a good feeling.”

Both help children with dinosaur-themed crafts, games and stories. They say in helping oth-ers, they learn a few things themselves. Last summer, MacDonald learned the art of diplomacy

when children were at play.“One would be playing with a puppet and another one

would want it too, and a lot of times I had to police the kids to make sure everyone was sharing and having a good time,” he said.

Gillespie learned to manage her time so she could en-joy working with the children at camp and make room for other interests. “The volunteer hours are flexible, so I can

work them around vacation, soccer and other activities,” she said.

Both teenagers feel a sense of purpose in their summer volunteer work. It’s their way of connect-ing with their community today, tomorrow and for years to come. “Everyone here is really nice, and they make me feel at home,” Gillespie said. “I’ll probably continue to volunteer throughout my

life. The satisfaction of knowing that I helped people out; it feels good.”

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 avail-able at the Park Authority’s nine RECenters and online at www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/wp-re-center.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 develop-ing 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 combined to avoid class cancelations.

Children are all smiles as they develop swim skills with their parent or other favorite adult.

Practice Healthy Swimming HabitsAccidents 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 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.

Children gain confidence in the pool as they learn to swim with the help of car-ing instructors.

Donor Spotlight

Fair Oaks Mall and Interstate

When it comes to business, who you know is almost as im-portant as what you know. As general manager of a business that employs 5000 employees and serves 24 million customers each year, Robert Stark, general manager of Fair Oaks Mall in Fairfax, has plenty of opportu-nities to connect with people. “Being general manager of a shopping mall is a little like being mayor of a city,” he said. “You’re in charge of providing utility service, trash service and other services to the tenants and customers here, and you’re responsible for responding to constituent complaints or concerns.”

One major concern he faced head-on had to do with the 35-year-old mall’s aging infrastructure. Under Stark’s leadership, the mall was recently renovated and now features a contemporary look and feel with wireless Internet access, new furniture and new signs and entrances. While some of the old fixtures were overdue for “retirement,” Stark real-ized the mall’s outdoor steel benches were still in good shape.

“The benches were nowhere near the end of their life expectancy, and we thought it would be good if we could find them a new home,” he said. He contacted someone at the Fairfax County Of-fice of Public/Private Partnerships and that person connected him with the Fairfax County Park Foun-dation, and before he knew it, the businessman and avid golfer was able to locate a new home for the mall’s former benches, trash receptacles and ash cans – Burke Lake Golf Center and Greendale and Twin Lakes golf courses. The next task was moving the furniture, and the Park Foundation’s executive director, Bobbi Longworth, knew just who to call.

“Bobbi and I have worked together on other projects in the past,” said J.D. Morrissette, president of Interstate Van Lines in Springfield. “When she contacted me about moving furniture from Fair Oaks Mall to Twin Lakes, we were glad to help. It’s part of our company’s mission to give back to the community, and we appreciate the opportunity to be a good neighbor.”

During the mall’s year-long renovation, Stark says he had no time for golf. Now that the project is complete, he looks forward to seeing some familiar surroundings this summer when he tees of at Twin Lakes Golf Course. “It will be fun to be able to sit down on my old benches,” he said.

ted 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, wear-

ing a visible dog license and leashed when entering or leaving the class area.

• Check with instructor at first class for proper leash-es, collars and other equipment.

• An adult must accompany child handler younger than 16 or that does not have own transportation.

• All classes are held outdoors.Register the handler, not the dog; one handler/one dog per registration.

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.

Off-Leash Dogs Welcome in Special Dog ParksOwners 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 eight 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• Rock Hill District Park, 15150 Old Lee Rd., Cen-

treville.• Grist Mill, 4710 Mt. Vernon Memorial Hwy, Alex-

andria• Westgrove, 6801 Fort Hunt Road, Alexandria All Park Authority dog parks are public/private part-nerships, 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.
