Description

VIENNA, VA — The Towns of Vienna and Herndon are facing off in a Caboose to Caboose challenge in October. Residents are encouraged to sign up and participate in the challenge: walk or ride along the Washington and Old Dominion Trail from the Vienna Caboose to the Herndon Caboose or vice versa. That equals approximately 16.6 miles for a round trip. If that sounds daunting, don't fret. Participants can complete the challenge gradually between Oct. 1 and 31 or just go halfway. Post a selfie in front of the Caboose and tag the Town of Vienna or Town of Herndon on social media. Then the towns encourage participants to dine, shop and ride in both towns. The town with the most selfies at the end of the month gets bragging rights. To participate, register through the Town of Vienna or Town of Herndon. Registration is $10 for kids 15 and under and $15 for anyone 16 and older. The first 225 registered participants will get a T-shirt for their town: blue for Vienna or red for Herndon.
