Down County Recreation Advisory Board (DCRAB)

The DCRAB advises the County Executive , County Council, and the Department of Recreation and the Planning Board on regional recreation and park needs. It encourages the development of desirable parks and recreational opportunities, and advises and makes recommendations to appropriate officials on matters concerning budgets, recreation programs, services, and facilities in the Down County Region.
