Caroline County Recreation and Parks

Caroline County Recreation & Parks is a division of Caroline County Government and the Caroline County Commissioners and Youth services represent the largest portion of the total recreation division budget and a majority of the public programs developed and managed by the Department. Services in this category are either self-supporting with revenues generated from fees, grants and private sponsorships, or they are partially subsidized with general tax funds. Adult and senior services comprises the smallest service category in the division. All services are self-supporting and focus primarily on adult educational classes and karate instruction. Special Event and Family Services reflects a variety of large and small special event and special service programs both managed and facilitated by this division. The division includes events like Caroline Summerfest, Two Mile Turkey Trot Fun Run, Youth Fishing Derby, and Christmas Holiday programming. All of these services are self-supporting through fees, private sponsorships and a liberal use of volunteers.
