Ida Lee Park Hosts “Discovery Walk” in Celebration of Kids to
Park Day
National Kids to Parks Day is Saturday, May 21, 2022.
Leesburg, VA (May 17, 2022) – In recognition of
the 12th Anniversary of Kids to Park Day on May
21, Leesburg Parks and Recreation will be hosting
a Discovery Walk to encourage families to explore the
138 acres of Ida Lee Park.
Beginning on Wednesday, May 18, a Discovery Walk
guide and map will be available for download at
www.bit.ly/IdaLeeDiscovery. Paper copies will also be
available at the Ida Lee Recreation Center front desk.
Using the map and accompanying clues, kids will explore Ida Lee Park and answer a series of
questions. Responses must be submitted online or in-person, during recreation center hours,
no later than May 23.
The first 100 kids with at least one correct answer will receive a custom Leesburg Parks and
Recreation water bottle. The entry with the most correct answers will win an additional prize. If
there is a tie, one winner will be drawn from those with the highest score. Prizes must be
picked up in-person.
Parking is available at the Ida Lee Recreation Center (60 Ida Lee Drive) and all are invited to
participate. For more information, visit www.bit.ly/IdaLeeKids.
Make sure to take photos of the beautiful scenery you encounter along the way then post and
tag them with #IdaLeeDiscovery.
