Below is a map showing how the park was conceived.
The original owner of the land was Hal Hanson, a U.S. State Department official and nonprofit leader, who died in 1992. The Hanson family agreed to sell the land to Loudoun County only for use as a park.
The community is invited to attend the ribbon cutting ceremony for the park on Friday, September 23 at 5:30 p.m. The ceremony will take place at the park’s Championship Plaza Field No. 1, located at 23345 Hanson Park Drive.
