Calvert County Commissioners Invite Citizens to Take Part in the Patuxent Challenge

April 16, 2018

The Calvert County Department of Parks & Recreation Natural Resources Division, in partnership with the Maryland Department of Planning, encourages citizens to engage in outdoor exploratory activities along the Patuxent River during the 2018 Patuxent Challenge.

During this social media event, paddle a kayak or canoe at Kings Landing Park, take a hike along the Patuxent River at Jefferson Patterson Park or visit a favorite location along the river to take in the scenic views and enjoy the beauty of nature.

“The Patuxent River offers a wide variety of outdoor recreation opportunities and the Patuxent Challenge provides a menu of these fun activities,” said Calvert County Natural Resources Division Chief Karyn Molines. “By completing the Patuxent Challenge, you will experience a different aspect of the Patuxent River with each activity as the river changes from its headwaters to the Chesapeake Bay.”
