| Comments | There are two boat ramps at this park and a separate area for launching non-motorized vessels.
Situated on the banks of the Pocomoke River and located just off West Market Street, Byrd Park is the largest of the three town parks in Snow Hill. Its new concession stand and wide expanses of green grass make it ideal for festivals and specials events. The large pavilions provide shade from the hot sun and shelter from inclement weather. Children will find hours of fun on the eco-friendly playground next to the pavilions.
Boaters will find ramps for canoes, kayaks, and motor boats. There is dockage available along with water, electricity, comfort stations, lighted parking lots, and spacious picnic areas. Fishing is permitted on the docks in the park without a fishing license. Call Town Hall for reservations of the facilities at 410-632-2080. |
