Recreation

The Talbot County Department of Parks and Recreation (TCDPR) welcomes you to enjoy the finest natural resources, recreational facilities, and programs available on Maryland's Eastern Shore. We are responsible for the public recreation programs, and for the maintenance, procurement, and development of county-owned recreational facilities. TCDPR also operates the Talbot County "Hog Neck" Community Center, George Murphy Community Pool, Bay Hundred Community Pool and manages 13 public park sites and 29 public landings.

The YMCA of Talbot County is a non-profit, charitable organization. It is an association of persons of all ages who are united in a common effort to put Judeo-Christian principles into practice through programs that promote healthy lifestyles, strengthen family, develop leadership in youth, build international understanding and assist in community development. The YMCA provides programming to people of all ages, from infants through older adults, and many programs are offered at no additional cost to a member. From sports, to childcare, arthritis classes to family programs, there is something for everyone at the YMCA of Talbot County.
