The more things change, the more they stay the same. In fact, the summer fun that makes Reston a great place to grow up hasn’t changed much over the last 40 years, according to people who grew up in Reston … and decided to stay.
For example, Restonian Lisa Kelly says her absolute favorite activity as a child was movie night at the RA pools. Now her children share the same love of that weekly summer ritual.
“We love it because it is a family friendly event that is free and fun! It’s a unique way to watch a movie outside, and we look forward to it each year,” said Kelly.
There are plenty more opportunities to get in on movies at the pool.

Reston Association hosts the Family Dive-In movies. Always free, always fun.
RA provides the popcorn and drinks, but you need to bring your favorite float.
