It's nice because there is a little shaded playground next to the splash pad, so she just ran back and forth between the playground and the water. There are also tons of benches and a couple small picnic tables (not shaded) for adults to sit down. And it wasn't terribly crowded.</p> <p>@Beaker: We have been once. Not sure how it would be for a meetup since it's so big. It was also really busy/crowded when we went. I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has been there before and what they think. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-metro-dc-area-meet-up#post-1705991 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 19:02:06 +0000 lovehoneybee 1705991@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My BIL lives in Annapolis, so depending on when it is we might be able to visit them for the weekend and pop out for a while! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-metro-dc-area-meet-up#post-1705988 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 18:59:59 +0000 Mrs. Tiger 1705988@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Another suggestion without AC, has anyone been to Clemyjontri Park in Mclean?</p> <p><a href="http://friendsofclemy.com/playground.html" rel="nofollow">http://friendsofclemy.com/playground.html</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/summer-metro-dc-area-meet-up#post-1705987 Tue, 17 Jun 2014 18:58:24 +0000 littlek 1705987@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pancakes: is it fun?
