LEESBURG, VA — May 30, 2026 — On Friday morning at 8:30 AM, the fields of Morven Park will fill with students, families, and community members taking meaningful steps toward solving one of the world’s most urgent challenges: access to clean water.
Walking For Water, a youth-led initiative of Wisdom Spring, invites the public to participate in this annual community event that raises awareness and funds for clean water projects in Africa and India.
For many around the world, walking miles each day to collect water is a daily reality. This event offers participants a chance to experience a small glimpse of that journey—while supporting real solutions led by youth.
For more than 20 years, students across Loudoun County, including Tuscarora, Heritage, Dominion, Stone Bridge, and Independence High Schools, have organized and led Walking For Water events. Their efforts have helped fund over 60 water wells, providing clean water access, supporting education for girls, and strengthening communities globally.
“This event is about more than awareness—it’s about action,” said Susan Hough, co-founder of Wisdom Spring. “These young people are stepping into leadership and showing what’s possible when compassion meets commitment. They are creating real change in the world.”
The event will bring together people of all ages to walk in solidarity, celebrate youth leadership, and contribute to a growing global impact. Families, students, and local supporters are encouraged to attend.

South 20th Street

Community members are invited to reconnect with nature during a special session of gentle outdoor yoga at the Purcellville Mini-Forest on Sunday, May 31. The program, part of the ongoing Discover Nature’s Secrets
series, will begin at 4 p.m. and will include a relaxing yoga session followed by an opportunity to explore the mini-forest. Participants are encouraged to bring a yoga mat or towel. Space is limited to 25 participants. Register online in advance by completing the required waiver form at: <a href="https://purcellvilleva.gov/FormCenter/Parks-and-Rec-Forms-2/2026-Yoga-in-the-Purcellville-MiniForest-277" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://purcellvilleva.gov/FormCenter/Parks-and-Rec-Forms-2/2026-Yoga-in-the-Purcellville-MiniForest-277</a>. 
The yoga session will be led by Jacqlyn Riposo, who is currently completing her yoga teacher training through Yoga Time Studio. Inspired by outdoor yoga classes that combined movement and nature, Riposo is passionate about helping others experience the joy and calm of practicing yoga in natural settings. 
The Purcellville Mini-Forest project was launched in 2024 with support from the Virginia Department of Forestry and the Loudoun Wildlife Conservancy. Since its establishment, volunteers have contributed hundreds of hours planting native trees and shrubs, installing and monitoring protective fencing, and removing invasive plant species that threaten the young ecosystem.
The mini-forest was created using a method developed by renowned Japanese botanist Akira Miyawaki. The Miyawaki Method, refined over four decades and implemented in cities around the world, focuses on planting diverse native species at high density in nutrient-rich soil to encourage rapid growth and biodiversity.
Discover Nature’s Secrets is a monthly series of nature walks and environmental programs designed to inspire appreciation for the natural world. The program is hosted by the Purcellville Parks and Recreation Advisory Board, often in partnership with the Tree and Environment Sustainability Committee and the Purcellville Arts Council.
