WELCOME MESSAGE

Dear Residents and Visitors,

Welcome! The Ocean City Recreation and Parks mission is to enhance the quality of life for our Ocean City residents and visitors by offering safe, fun, and inclusive parks and recreation opportunities. We strive each day to do this with professionalism and integrity. We want to be the place the community comes to gather, socialize, improve mental and physical health, and feel a part of something.

We encourage you to look through our website, come meet our friendly staff, and get involved in programs, events, and activities to improve the quality of your life! We aim to offer something for everyone, and if we are coming up short, we hope that you will reach to us to let us know your needs.

There are so many hidden gems within our park system—our outdoor fitness equipment, the many different species of birds at Eagles Landing, our communication boards at Bayside and Northside Park, and the many programs we offer around town. We hope you will take advantage of our beautiful parks, golf course, and well-thought-out playgrounds, pavilions, and spaces that provide active and passive recreational opportunities.

Get out and get active, you won’t regret it!

Sincerely,

Kate Gaddis
Director, Recreation and Parks
