Excellent outdoor track and field…read more Free to use and open to the public when school activities are not in process. I used to receive email updates for when the track was opened or closed, but I probably no longer use that email address, so I'm out of the loop. I used to come here with a running group to do track speed work and speed drills. Another time I used to come regularly was for a weekly boot camp group that met where during designated week nights. Nice 8-lane track. Standard 4x around is mile. There are bleechers so some people run up and down those as well. Public restrooms are available and in working order when I was here and easy to find at the entrance. I am not certain where parking is. I lucked up and usually find parking on the surrounding neighborhood streets. I am sure there is a school parking lot around the corner or something. Plenty of people out for brisk walks and jogging around the track and others were playing American football and soccer in the middle of the field. Highly recommend!

The people were cheerful despite the look of the weather. Everyone that took part in the kids race looked happy and excited. Although I did not take part in the race this time, I am thinking about going it next year. The overall feeling of doing something heathly and fun, are two things not to ignore.

And with the emergence of the Mosaic district close-by, Falls Church high school is poised for an even greater future.

Word to the wise: google maps will lead you to the side opposite of the parking lot entrance, so turn right then left on the next street to get to the soccer fields. overall, fields are pretty solid condition (separate fields for football and soccer), with bleachers on the side. Doesn't have as much problem with beads piled up (like Wash Lee) or holes in the field (RFK aux field). Ample parking, trash cans...no bathrooms though from what I could find.

Wasn't too long after graduation that I realized that St. John's more than prepared me for the next level. The curriculum is challenging. You aren't allowed to float by and you are getting the tools needed to thrive beyond college. Critical thinking and reasoning were skills imparted to you. Athletics could have been stronger, but it's picking up a lot of steam. It helps that the CEO of Under Armour, Kevin Plank, is a SJC alum. This school will continue to grow and will undoubtedly be an elite institution for years to come.

That means on weekends and during school breaks. (Check their website for their break schedule. For example, Winter Break 2021 ran from December 18th through January 2nd.) A few neighbors report it's open during the week in the evening. 2) Space: It's one large, tiered open area completely fenced in. There's a large turf area perfect for running around or soccer. There are different levels with plenty of areas to sit for parents. 3) Equipment: The most popular items are the zip line, a two-level fast slide and a rope tunnel course. They also have swings, lots of climbing equipment, a wooden bear, gargoyles art, a bear cave, two sand pits and so much more. My four-year-old daughter spends hours here without ever getting bored. 4) Parking: There's a small parking lot at the school. If it's full, easy street parking nearby can be found. One thing I didn't see while there are bathrooms. If you really need to go, walk north along nearby Wisconsin Avenue to local restaurants.

These empanadas routinely run out before the game ends because they are THAT good, the volunteers working the stand are some of the friendliest parent volunteers running a concession stand. This is borne out by the fact that there are alumni who sponsor different innings even though they have long moved out of the area. Impressive in so many ways. Most high school concession stands have joyless packaged foods that are the antithesis of homemade. It is a testament to Annandale High School's athletic boosters and specifically their baseball team volunteers to have added this delightful twist to the usual high school concession stand fare.
