In 1936, a group of prominent Baltimore County sportsmen concerned about conservation of wildlife and natural habitats formed the
Baltimore County Game & Fish Protective
Association. Membership required a love and understanding of the great outdoors and a
desire to improve wildlife preservation through education, conservation, and support of
related legislation. Since then, the association has
gone on to provide a valuable and needed community
resource to sportsmen and non-sportsmen alike.

The BCGF property is actively

housing developments. The BCGF pond holds a number
of native fish species and is also stocked yearly.
Many types of woodland wildlife may be observed,
including whitetail deer, red fox, and many
smaller species of mammals and birds. |
