Welcome
to CUPF’s January 2017 news that you can use. We have included a few important
reminders and notices about SUMMER 2017 use of public facilities so that you
are ready-to-go once warmer weather arrives!
Field
Sports Leagues: Spring/Summer league permits are coming soon! Thank you for
your patience as we work with Montgomery Parks and Montgomery County Public
Schools to assist you in having a successful season.
All Field
Sports Users: Fields will be available to request via www.ActiveMONTGOMERY.org on February 15, 2017
for use March 15 through August 15, 2017. This process excludes public high school grass,
artificial turf, and regional park fields.
Summer
camp programs meeting the definition outlined below are considered high-volume
use and may apply for permits now through February 1, 2017.
The last
day for summer camps will be Friday, August 11, 2017. This allows schools staff
to prepare buildings for teachers and students to return prior to the 2017-2018
school year.
Use the
Priority, High-Volume and Other Bulk Use
Request Form on the CUPF resources page to submit your
summer camp use, if you meet the following definition: (a) summer programs for children and youth during the months that MCPS
K-12 educational programs are on summer break, and (b) operates three to five
days a week, at least three hours each day, serving the same participants, and
(c) is registered and compliant with applicable government regulations to

Submission deadline for summer sports
league and club designations is March 1, 2017. Detailed information will be

Stay tuned.
The
