The Department of Parks and Recreation, alongside the County Commissioners, has announced the construction of a new skatepark.

The skatepark will be located in Stevensville on Cockey Lane behind Business Parkway and promises to be a dynamic addition to the recreational amenities of Queen Anne’s County.

Construction of the skatepark started in mid-April, with the American Ramp Company (ARC). The project is estimated to last between 10 to 12 weeks and is subject to weather conditions. Work is scheduled for Monday through Friday and will be complemented by plantings along the site’s perimeter.

“We are thrilled to see this desired community amenity brought to life,” remarked Steve Chandlee, Director for Department of Parks and Recreation. “The skatepark represents a space where creativity, athleticism, and camaraderie can come together.”
