Community Parks

There are eighteen Community Parks in Howard County. From Alpha Ridge to Worthington they provide active and passive recreational opportunities. They also serve organized sports groups. Most are developed, some have been left in their natural state. Information about these parks is currently being added to our website with a goal of listing some information about each of the sites.
