The award from the Virginia Recreation and Park Society recognized the county for its Locust Shade Warrior Challenge Course, giving it the Best New Renovation/Addition (Parks, Playgrounds, Blueways, Greenways or Trails).
“We’re proud to have created the Warrior Challenge Course as it brings a unique experience to the local community that also positively impacts the quality of life for those living both on and off the base,” says Amir Wenrich, parks department spokesman.
