Chapman DeMary Trail

Get ready to turn ordinary rocks into tiny works of art! Join us at the Chapman DeMary Trail at 1 p.m. on Sunday, August 30, for an afternoon of creativity and nature. Participants will paint two rocks—one to take home and one to place along the trail for another visitor to discover. Your colorful creation might become someone else’s favorite trail treasure! The Purcellville Parks and Recreation Advisory Board will provide all the supplies. Registration is requested so we have enough supplies: <a href="https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks</a>.
Before you arrive, go on the Nature Trivia Walk at the Chapman DeMary Trail. Find all 10 trivia questions, write the answers on the trivia walk sheet, then bring your completed answer sheet to the rock painting event to receive a prize! Trivia walk sheets are available at the trail or online at <a href="https://purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks?utm_source=chatgpt.com" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">purcellvilleva.gov/881/Monthly-Nature-Walks</a>.

The LSO is celebrating its 35th anniversary and for its season opener is collaborating with the Master Singers of Virginia and Loudoun Lyric Opera to present Beethoven’s glorious masterwork, Symphony No. 9, which has never been performed in Loudoun County! The 9th broke traditional rules of classical music, by adding human voices to a symphony. It also turned the famous “Ode to Joy” into a global anthem for human unity.

The Chapman DeMary Trail, a 10-acre area which is the last stand of old-growth forest in the Town, is open to the public for environmental exploration, education, and recreation. Trail projects encourage environmental stewardship and have engaged students, scouts, and members of the community in learning about and protecting this habitat. The trail runs along the South Fork Catoctin Creek which is part of the Chesapeake Bay Watershed. The Town of Purcellville holds the conservation easement for this privately-owned property. The entrance and parking for the Chapman DeMary Trail is behind the building at 205 East Hirst Road in Purcellville.
Hail to the Trail is hosted by the Purcellville Tree and Environment Sustainability Committee, a standing committee of the Town of Purcellville that focuses on environmental programs, sustainability, enhancement of the tree canopy, and continuation of the Town's Tree City USA designation.
