Parking and admission to the park are free.

You can reserve a one-hour block of time to visit the museum. Or call ahead to see if there's an opening: 410-990-1993.

Museum admission is $8 per person, ages one to adult. FREE for members.

Look for more features to the park with support from a $25,000 grant from the state of Maryland's Department of Housing and Community Development. The intent of this grant is to improve public spaces to draw out regular visitors and provide family activities.

Thank you, Joanne Pazmino for sharing your passion for plants and animals with CCM.

She is happy to see the museum open again to enjoy with her sons, Marcus, age 3, and Roman, age 6.

The animals in the museum - toads, chameleons, and Madagascar hissing cockroaches, are happy, too, to have new greenery in their habitats.

CCM has been awarded a $1,000 grant from Unity Gardens to add native plants to the park.

Look for the blueberry bushes along the ponds on the West Trail.

30th Anniversary of CCM

The Atlantic Menhaden is a common fish along the eastern seaboard including the Chesapeake Bay. The name comes from an Algonquin word for "fertilizes" because of their traditional use in agriculture. Menhaden are food for striped bass (rockfish), bluefish, and other fish, as well as for predatory birds, including osprey and eagles. They swim in large schools close to the water's surface during the spring, summer, and fall.
