Message from the Executive Director
In 2012, we hope to open the first section of a new fully accessible playground at Lee District Park, expand the award-winning Ossian Hall concert series and increase the number of Rec-PAC scholarships to meet the growing demand from families in need. The new year also poses new finanical challenges as the county continues to weather the current economic situation.
Thank you so much for your support in 2011! Many projects were accomplished due to your generosity.
Roberta A. Longworth, CFRE
January's Step is New Year + New Attitude = New You!
Participate in an activity you enjoy. Encourage a friend or family member to join you and make a plan to stay active together for at least 30 minutes, three times per week. Try a group fitness class at the Park Authority RECenters or walk or run at an outdoor track at one of the Fairfax Public Schools during non-school hours. Here's more of what is in store for Take 12! Steps for Community Health in 2012.
Help make Chessie's BIG Backyard a reality!
The campaign is underway to raise funds for Chessie's BIG Backyard at the Family Recreation Area in Lee District Park. See the groundbreaking photographs.
