Somerset County Parks and Recreation Schedule

Somerset County Parks and Recreation Schedule


When you are heading into Crisfield be sure and stop at the Robert C. B. Long and Edwin D. Long, Jr., Centralized Athletic Complex located on 413 in Westover. Stretch you legs on their quarter-mile track, let the kiddos enjoy the playground, and if you've packed a lunch, you can enjoy it under their new pavilion. The park has a ton of acres and has plans for expansion. All they need is grant money. How about it Maryland? Help Somerset County expand our Field of Dreams.

I will be posting photos of the park's Halloween event soon. For now, here is a photo I took of the fence going up last year. What a change you will see when viewing the Halloween event.
