General, Nature Centers, Park, Science

Welcome to the City of Alexandria's Recreation, Parks, and Cultural Activities website. The Department offers a wide variety of recreational opportunities for all ages, including afterschool programs for youth, sports opportunities, senior events, and our popular ethnic festivals. Our parks and trails network provides countless ways to enjoy Alexandria outdoors. Look for information on the George Washington and St. Patrick's Day parades coming this winter and don't forget to join us for some exercise at one of our indoor facilities. The long-awaited renovation of the Jerome 'Buddie' Ford Nature Center is scheduled to take place this year. This project will take several months to complete, during which time the Nature Center will be closed.
