Celebrate, Advocate, Recreate!

Since 1985, America has celebrated July as the nation's official Park & Recreation month.  We want to remind everyone of the exciting and vital role parks and recreation play in our lives.  Click here to see some of the pictures you sent us showing how parks and recreation is important to you, the City of Tarpon Springs, and the U.S.! 

 

Activity Card Information

In reading the descriptions for our programs, you will notice that there are two prices for classes. The first price is the amount a Tarpon Springs Resident or non-resident who has purchased a Recreation Card pays. The second price is the amount a non-resident without a Recreation Card pays.  Participants in outdoor organized activities (Youth Football, Youth Soccer, Little League, etc.), any gymnasium programs and all tennis court users must have a valid Activity Card.

 

To obtain an Activity Card, visit the Recreation Office located at 400 S. Walton Avenue.    Activity cards are photo IDs, thus all family members obtaining a card must be present.  Non-Resident Activity Cards cost $55.00 for an individual, or $70 for a family, per year, for access to all facilities.  Resident Activity Cards cost $5.00 for an individual, or $15.00 for a family, per year, for access to all facilities.  One-Day Guest Cards are available for $5.00.  All card holders are exempt from the non-resident program fees.  Activity Cards may be renewed no earlier than the month in which it expires.  Duplicates of valid cards may be purchased for $5.00.
