September 3, 2026
weight lifting

Take the first step to a healthier and happier you by becoming an annual member of Fairfax County Park Authority’s Rec Centers. These community wellness hubs provide all the ingredients needed to make your fitness dreams a reality. Lock in during September and get a 15% discount when you purchase annual membership online or in person.

View the Membership flyer

Members receive access to all nine of the Park Authority’s Rec Centers across Fairfax County, so explore classes and fitness opportunities at any location. Develop a workout routine that works for you using cardio and weight training equipment in the Fitness Centers.

Try drop-in group exercise classes, such as cycle, yoga, Pilates, BODYPUMP and Zumba. Take a lap in the pool for a full body workout that goes easy on the joints. Make strides toward better health with every rep, step or stroke.

Signing up for annual membership also provides access to special amenities where available, such as:

  • Indoor tracks at Franconia, Mount Vernon and Spring Hill rec centers.
  • Ice skating and indoor rock climbing at Mount Vernon Rec Center.
  • Indoor water park at Cub Run Rec Center.
  • Racquetball/Wallyball courts at Audrey Moore, Franconia, Oakmont, Providence, South Run and Spring Hill rec centers.
  • Gyms (drop-in basketball and pickleball, schedule depending) at Audrey Moore, Franconia and Spring Hill rec centers.
  • Discounts on Drop-In Childcare at Cub Run, Oakmont and Mount Vernon rec centers.

Everyone can see what Rec Centers have to offer and celebrate their amenities during the Rec Center Open House on Tuesday, Sept. 22. Bring friends and neighbors out to your local Rec Center to try out the Fitness Centers, pools/spas/saunas, sample drop-in exercise classes, and explore the special amenities each location has to offer. Admission all day is free with sign up for a 7-day pass. Level up the time you have to explore by signing up for the 30 days for $30 pass instead. Go all in by purchasing membership at a 15% discount!

On Sept. 22, stop by between 4:30 and 7:30 p.m. for special programming. Get in on some exciting activities -- from ping pong at Audrey Moore, to inflatable axe throwing at Cub Run, to roasting s’mores at Oakmont, to cornhole at George Washington, to a carousel ride at Franconia, to meeting a mermaid at Providence, to line dancing at Spring Hill, to kickboxing at South Run. Visit the Rec Center website for details on the open house.

Mark your calendars for Sept. 22 and commit to your health.
