Chris Hawk, a PEC field rep, took some time to show us his favorite local spots to get outside. Have you found somewhere to get fresh air while keeping a safe social distance? Send us a picture! 

“The value of open space, within each and every local community in Virginia, is now more evident than ever before.

Today, communities are relying on their local parks and greenways to help combat the feeling of isolation, to get exercise and breathe fresh air, and to engage their children in life around them.

As we converge on our parks and trails like never before, we must remember that these places don’t happen by accident.” -PEC President Chris Miller
