Most athletic fields in County parks are reserved by permit by various sports leagues. A County staff member would likely ask citizens to refrain from using fields if a permitted game or practice is going on; if a game or practice is getting ready to begin; if the field is being prepared/lined for a game; or if maintenance is being done on the field. There are signs at the more heavily used parks stating field use is by permit only. However, there are areas of open/green space in most County parks where citizens can play Frisbee® or pursue other recreational activities. If anyone is unsure whether an area is open/green space or part of a permitted athletic field area, please contact David Guyther, Parks Manager, at (301) 863-8400 ext. 3571 or Tyrone Harris, Facilities Coordinator, at (240) 237-8023 ext. 1653 or 1670. The County also has a popular disc golf course at Lancaster Park that is a great option for Frisbee enthusiasts.
