    Sprawling. In the back there's a street set up, the rest of the features are wooden and old, a lot of steep transition and the state of things make them more suited to bikes than skateboards. There is a 6 foot wooden 1/2 pipe, a pyramid, wooden banks, a few rails, some angle iron, mostly pipe coping. Locals were chill.

    Rugby practice just finished and basketball is starting.

    Big, fun park. Mostly vert with a Variety of ramps, boxes, ledges. There are a few holes in ramps, missing screws here and there.

    Audrey Moore Rec Center is a Fairfax County facility and it is an older facility but they have…read moreeverything you could ever think of. Outside, there is baseball & softball fields, basketball courts, soccer fields (turf) a skate park, & several walking or biking trails. Inside, they have a full-size swimming pool & diving well with both spring boards and platforms, there are racquetball courts, a gym, and studios for all kinds of classes like yoga, as well as a physical therapy office through INOVA. I have been here many times for my son's soccer & swim team practice as well as just coming to play and have fun. Personally, I have been here for yoga classes as well as PT including aquatic PT. You can purchase a class pass or pay a one day fee or you sign up for a wide variety of classes offered year round. On Wednesdays they have a local farmers market out in the parking lot. They also have county recycling bins, which I have used recently for glass. Note: as expected there's a heavy chlorine smell in the pool area so if you're sensitive before warned.

    This is a filthy facility and it has been reported to the Fairfax County Health Department. 3rd…read moreworld conditions abound such as poop in the shower, theft issues (as mentioned before) AND 7-year old boys in the women's locker room. Sound fun? Yeah, me neither. Rather than use a toilet, some patrons apparently just use the shower. Rather than wait for a family change room, some patrons bring their school age boys into a private space that is meant for women and little girls. To top it off, management will blame the messenger if you complain, adding insult to injury. Highly dysfunctional and poorly managed.
