our local Parks and Rec is fabulous! They offer so many different classes (pottery!!!! yippee !!) and so many local events. They are such a great civic public service. The recent βart in the parkβ event was so much fun! Canβt wait to go again!

Crisp hickory leaves flutter through the tree canopy. Geese swoop down in formation to College Lake. In contrast to the pavement on much of the city trail system, Creekside is in a more natural state. Road and construction sounds fade a couple hundred feet from Lakeside Drive to be replaced by chattering squirrels, woodpeckers, and titmouse. Watch carefully for remnants of a 1940s era stone fire circle and BBQ pit closer to the lake. We didnβt pass one living soul on this trail, though the spirit of an unburied Union soldier is said to roam the banks of College Lake.

Zumba classes at the Templeton Center, pool and after school programs at the Fairview Center, Blackwater Creek and other trails, and the parks make Lynchburg Parks & Rec great for fitness, activities, classes, and making new friends!
