Youth Athletics

Parks and Recreation offers youth athletics in the Auburn, Eastern Montgomery, and Prices Fork areas of the county. We approach recreational sports with the belief that emphasis should be placed on educational and social benefits, rather than competition. Ultimately, it is our goal to ensure that every participant receives an enjoyable and lasting recreation experience in a safe and positive environment.

Frog Pond Pool

The Frog Pond is a great place to hang out and relax during the summer. Our aquatic programs and lessons are Red Cross Certified and designed to help the participant grow as a swimmer. The pool has a zero-depth entry for those wanting to ease into the water, and a maximum depth of eight feet for those who want to make a splash and jump right in!
