Center Street Westminster, MD 21157 FALL GUIDE 2019 TREE-mendous TREES! Trees come in many shapes and sizes, may be young to old and include many different species. Take a minute to think of all the changes in the world that occurred during the life of a tree. Wouldn’t it be great if you could learn more by communicating directly with a tree? While we value all the many trees in Carroll County, this Fall we are highlighting some TREE-mendous ones in our parks. Even better, children will be able to visit these trees in person and ask them questions by email (TREE mail) such as “What kind of tree are you?”, “How old are you?”, “How do you like living in a park?” and “What was the world like when you were planted?” or send them special messages. Visit us online this Fall at ccrecpark.org and on Facebook to learn more about this fun opportunity for young children. Carroll County Park Legacy Fund If you enjoy visiting our beautiful parks, become involved and help make them an even better place. Your tax deductible contribution can be earmarked to support specific parks or amenities such as playgrounds, benches, trees, nature centers, and more.

  • Area's #1 Fishing & Hunting Outfitter
    Dear Angler: Here in Maryland, we need only look to our State Seal — depicting the fisherman and the ploughman — for proof that fishing really is part of our heritage. It’s a fun, affordable and accessible activity for all ages, and a great excuse to get our children away from video and computer games and into the great outdoors! Approximately 700,000 adults and thousands of young people fish each year in Maryland, with an estimated annual impact of $1 billion on our economy. Gov. Martin O’Malley and Sec. John R. Griffin More than a third of our anglers visit from out of state, testimony to the value and quality of our great fishing resources. We are very fortunate to have expert biologists and managers – working to- gether with our Sport Fisheries, Tidal Fisheries and Oyster Advisory Commissions, and our Coastal Fisheries Advisory Committee, to guide fisheries management across our State. We are also very fortunate to have you -- committed conserva- tionists and advocates – working with us. Your license revenues support protection and enhancement of Maryland’s fishery resources, research and management activities, expanded public access and enhanced law enforcement. And we look forward to strengthening our partnership with you as we work toward our goals for a restored Chesapeake Bay, thriving freshwater streams, and healthy abundant fish populations. Thank you for being a part of a great cultural tradition, and here’s wishing you a terrific year of fishing in Maryland. Martin O’Malley John R. Griffin Governor Secretary About the Cover: This edition of the Maryland Fishing Guide is dedicated to Frances McFaden, who retired from public service after 43 years as a steadfast, ever-helpful, and resourceful Maryland state worker.

This year marks the 50th anniversary of Carroll County’s Department of Recreation and Parks. Over that time, hundreds of thousands of program registrants and park visitors have had their lives positively impacted by our programs and parks. Generations of residents have played on the same ballfields, hiked trails, paddled at Piney Run Park and attended Outdoor School at Hashawha. As a community, we are healthier because of these experiences and are more in tune with nature and each other. Coaches served as mentors, teammates became lifelong friends and we likely learned a thing or two about ourselves, our neighbors, and our community along the way. Join us this fall for new and exciting programs, get out and enjoy our parks, and help us continue to celebrate our golden anniversary all year long. Thank you for being a part of our Recreation and Parks story for the past 50 years and we look forward to seeing you this fall. - Carroll County Department of Recreation and Parks WHAT’S INSIDE 2 Introduction & Table of Contents 17-19 Adaptive Recreation Programs 4-5 Special Events & Programs 19-24 Nature & Environment Programs 5-7 Arts & Enrichment Programs 24 Recreation Council Info 7-9 Health & Wellness Programs 25 Memberships 10-11 EPIC Programs 26 Information Page 11-16 Athletic & Sports Programs 27-28 Registration Form & Waiver REGISTRATION 2021 Fall Program Registration for Carroll County residents opens on Tuesday, August 10, 2021 and on Tuesday, August 17, 2021 for Out-of-County residents.
