Reservoir Park is NOW OPEN and it’s beautiful! This 600+ acre oasis has been planned for water quality protection and to allow for more residents to enjoy access to recreational facilities. The park is open dawn to dusk and includes a welcome center, picnic pavilions, and more.

Wiehle Avenue Bridge (2 of 3). On Saturday, I visited this new bridge in Reston, VA that carries the W&OD Trail over Wiehle Avenue. It reminds us of the many improvements made to this Trail as we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the W&OD Trail this year. @NOVA_Parks @WODTrail

On Father's Day, I enjoyed a delightful swim at "Ocean Dunes Waterpark" at Upton Hill Regional Park in Arlington, VA. The Big Chair is always a hit with the kids and a great place for a family photo. @NOVA_Parks

A new pedestrian bridge at the @WODTrail will be erected over Wiehle Avenue at the intersection with Sunset Hills Road on Saturday. I want to thank former Senator Janet Howell & local taxpayers who helped fund this bridge that will make it safer for bikers, walkers and drivers.

Outside of the crowded Tidal Basin, @MeadowlarkNOVA has the second largest collection of Japanese Cherry Trees in the DC area. But as climate change threatens these flowering trees, "peak bloom" arrives earlier than ever. @NOVA_Parks @AlannaKopania @CNSmd #603A
