Protecting the Spaces That Bring Us Together

Ask residents what they love most about Montgomery County and parks top the list, with over 90% satisfaction ratings year after year. Our 420+ parks aren't just green spaces. They're where communities come together, where kids play, and where families make memories. As a father of four, I've spent countless hours at playgrounds, sports fields, and trails across this county. Protecting and expanding these spaces is essential to who we are.
