Baltimore County Department of Recreation and Parks works with 45 volunteer recreation and parks councils to sponsor a wide range of leisure time programs, activities and special events. Whatever interests you or your family may have, chances are our recreation and parks councils have a program for you.
Through this search tool you can search a general list of the programs that each volunteer recreation council has operated in the past twelve months as well as a a listing of the community recreation office's contact information.
As you peruse through this guide, please remember that it is general in nature. New programs are regularly instituted, while programs with waning popularity are discontinued. With this in mind, you should always contact the listed community office to get up-to-date information about the program.
If you see a program that interests you, but it is not being offered in your community, contact the listed community office to look into registering in that program, or even better, contact your local community office to see how you can become involved as a volunteer and work to start a similar program in your neighborhood.
