DC Area VT Alumni Association July 16: Family Summer Picnic

July 16: Family Summer Picnic | Time: 1 - 4 PM | Lake Fairfax Park - Home of the Water Mine (Reston, VA) | Contact: rob.bergeron@ncrhokies.org

Lake Fairfax Park is back by popular demand for this event. Many area Hokie alums have enjoyed our picnic here because it’s less than 20 miles from Arlington, Centreville, Bethesda, and DC. The 476-acre Lake Fairfax Park (www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/lakefairfax) features an 18-acre lake, picnic areas, trails, and a playground. The park is also home to the Water Mine Family Swimmin’ Hole (www.fairfaxcounty.gov/parks/rec/watermine), with slides, flumes, sprays, showers, and floatables. These attractions are designed for elementary-aged children, but there is something for everyone. 

Here is what your alma mater will provide:

• A kid-friendly and dog-friendly event 
• All-you-can-eat hot dogs, hamburgers, and veggie burgers
• Bottomless cold beverages (alcohol is strictly prohibited in the park)
• A wide variety of desserts for everybody
• Cold side dish contest (with special prizes for the winners)
• Games and activities for kids and adults (with special prizes for the winners)

If you are interested in entering the side dish contest, please contact Rob Bergeron at rob.bergeron@ncrhokies.org.
