Welcome to Kent County Parks and Recreation!
At Kent County Parks and Recreation we are always striving to provide fun, safe, family oriented recreational activities and programs that will build wellness and community ties. Parks and Recreation is busy with traditional activities, such as after school, summer camp, and gymnastics, as well partnering for creative new programming to meet the needs of you and your family.
If you have questions about any of our programs, parks, or recreational activities please use our website or feel free to contact us by email or phone. We are happy to help you and your family get out there and get active! Kent County Parks and Recreation is working hard so you can play hard!

Kent County Community Center: In general, when Kent County Public Schools are closed, close early, or cancel evening programs due to inclement weather, all regularly scheduled Parks and Recreation programs at public schools and County facilities are closed. In this case (generally), the Community Center will be open to the public on a drop in basis when Kent County Government offices are open, however the operating schedule may be adjusted as needed as weather conditions warrant or in case of emergencies.
School Year (September—May): In general, if Kent County Public Schools (KCPS) are closed, close early, or cancel evening programs, all KCPR programs at the Kent County Community Center (KCCC), a KCPR facility, or a public school site are closed. If KCPS are one hour or 90 minutes late, morning programs will be open. If KCPS are two hours late, morning programs will be closed.
Weekend/Summer: In general, announcements for weekend and/or summer programs and events held at the KCCC or a KCPR facility are posted by 8 am on the day in question. Decisions for programs with a start time before 8 am will be posted by 10 pm the night before. |
