Club or Organization Making a Difference in Braddock District — The Friends of Lake Accotink Park (FLAP) takes responsibility for supporting all of the numerous upkeep activities necessary to maintain the 493-acre park. They can be found assisting with the annual Cardboard Boat Regatta, helping with boathouse maintenance, and advocating for funding for the parks. They are an important part of the bi-annual park clean-up days. They have originated an effort called “Raiders of the Lost Trash,” where they take canoes out to retrieve trash along the lake shoreline in places that are difficult to reach by foot. They provide cultural as well as environmental support and are in the process of developing a Historical Accotink website.
