The Board of County Commissioners and the Recreation and Parks Department recognize the significant value of our parks and recreation programs and facilities, which encourage physical activity, improve the physical and spiritual health of county residents, instill an appreciation for the environment, facilitate the improvement of family relations and encourage the pursuit of a balanced and healthy lifestyle. Because of this recognition, the Board of County Commissioners for St. Mary’s County did officially proclaim the month of July 2010 as RECREATION AND PARKS MONTH in St. Mary’s County and invited all citizens to visit their local parks, recreation areas and museums to experience all they have to offer.
