Visitors can connect with nature through a variety of environmental nature programs, become entranced by a ride on the miniature train, or spend the afternoon relaxing with family and friends at various picnic and playground areas. t
One of the special attractions for children is the Adventure Playground.
Sports lovers can enjoy summer ball games on the various athletic fields, tennis on both indoor and lighted outdoor courts, Tai Chi, and even ice skating in the summer at the fully enclosed Cabin John Ice Rink.
