Following the publication last week of the photos of Reston residents enjoying recreational activities on the frozen Lake Thoreau, we have received a number of notes and calls from the concerned community members, who wanted us to remind the public that “skating, walking or conducting any other winter activities on the lakes in Reston is not safe and is prohibited.”
They asked us to clarify to residents, especially new members of the community, that going out on any Reston lakes when they look frozen is not safe.
The Reston Association has just produced a video warning community members to stay off the ice. The video can be seen at www.youtube.com/watch?v=bh1YqwfAMnI.
