For late night fun all summer, check out the District 8 Safe Summer Project—supervised games, sports, special events and more for ages 12-17 and 18-24 until midnight every night of the week. If you're a Prince George's County resident, you can play!
We strive to provide the very best in facilities, programs, and activities every day. We can do an even better job if you take a short survey and tell us how we’re doing.
If you like roller coasters, water slides or arcade games, then plan a day
trip to one of a variety of amusement parks in the Mid-Atlantic region.
Tickets are on sale at several Department of Parks and Recreation locations.
