Youth ID cards are now available FREE to residents ages 6-17! These cards allow youth FREE access to Maryland-National Capital Park and Planning Commission community centers throughout Prince George’s County, for many drop-in programs and amenities at the centers. (This does not include courses.) With a FREE Youth ID card, teens ages 13-17 may use community center fitness/weight rooms for free. (Supervision by an adult with a valid fitness pass is required in fitness/weight rooms for those ages 13-15.) Stop by any M-NCPPC community center to find out how to get your new, FREE, Youth ID.

From leadership training and cotillion participation to snow tubing and enjoying a day with the BaySox, M-NCPPC offers young people ages 13-17 activities tailored to meet their needs and interests. The Xtreme Teens weekend program, offered every Friday and Saturday evening 7-10 pm at community centers throughout Prince George's County, provides a safe haven for teens and replaces idle time with positive experiences (community centers are closed to non-teens at these times.) For more information about ongoing local teen programs, browse through this site or contact your area office or local community center.

Now, for the younger set...youth ages 10-12, we have a fun-filled program at M-NCPPC community centers too. Don't let teens have all the fun! For days, times, and other information, please contact your area office or your local community center.
