  • Fishing pass: $125/year per person (12 visits, excludes holidays and special events. A $180 value)

  • Holiday and holiday weekends: $20/person
  • Kids under age three (3) are free.

In 2024, the Board of Supervisors approved extending Regional Park hours to 8 p.m. during summertime to provide more recreational opportunities to communities.

The department is responsible for the operation of nine regional parks, encompassing approximately 9,200 acres.
