Welcome to the Person County Recreation Arts, and Parks Department
Person County has the distinction of being the oldest County Recreation Department in North Carolina. Programs were begun in the 40's with full funding occurring in 1961. A variety of programs are offered through our Athletics, Cultural Arts and Special Programs departments, as well as programming through Mayo Park. In addition to programs, many park facilities include lighted walking tracks, playground equipment and picnic shelters.
RECREATION/SENIOR CENTER UPDATE
On January 7, 2013 at the County Commmissioners Meeting, the board voted to move forward in the Design Phase for the center. We will be keeping you informed of the progress. Thank you for supporting this project.
