Prince William Parks & Recreation, Amazon, and KABOOM! will build a kid-designed inclusive playground Friday, Oct. 23, at George Hellwig Memorial Park, the county said.
Volunteers start at 8 a.m. A build-week celebration, with remarks and photos, is set for 2:30 p.m. The park is at 14420 Bristow Road in Manassas, next to the Dr. Richard Tami Miracle Field. The county said the playground should serve more than 900 children a year.
Prince William County Parks and Recreation is taking registration for the 2026 First Tee benefit tournament on Friday, Oct. 23, at Forest Greens Golf Club in Triangle. The department said in an Oct. 1 advisory that a $115 ticket covers 18 holes, a cart, range balls, a post-round lunch and prizes, and that last year’s tournament raised more than $3,000 for First Tee of Prince William County.
Check-in is at 8 a.m. and the shotgun start is at 9 a.m. at 4500 Poa Annua Lane. The advisory does not give a registration deadline, and it does not list sponsorship prices. The county’s 2025 advisory for the same tournament said the prior year raised over $9,000. This year’s note says more than $3,000. The release does not explain the gap.
