OUR VISION & MISSION

Our vision is to create "a healthy, connected community". 

​We strive to achieve this through our mission, "to serve as the community gathering place that enhances individual and family well being, guided by Christian values, and open to all".

OUR STORY

Started in 1995, the Severna Park Community Center was founded as a gift to the community from Woods Memorial Presbyterian Church when it was purchased from the YMCA of Severna Park.

Members of Woods Church believed that the existing main pool and building could continue to serve the community when the YMCA left, and purchased the property to make that possible.  Since that founding, the facility has grown to include a fitness center, gymnasium, dance studios, and a number of spaces used for classes, programs, workshops and community/family celebrations. 

A fully independent, 501c3 nonprofit organization, SPCC holds its own mortgage, and is supported by an Executive Director and a working Board of Directors comprised of 16 business leaders and active volunteers from within the Anne Arundel County community. 

Recently, the Board of Directors completed a strategic planning process, establishing a two-year plan for the center coming out of the pandemic.  Three key areas of focus were defined: community service, visibility & engagement, and organizational excellence.  Within those focus areas, the Board set five goals for the next two years:

Connect our community inside and outside the center
  • To better serve the community, we will proactively build meaningful relationships, expand services for underserved individuals and families, connect users to resources needed within our mission context, and create new opportunities to gather.
Enhance and expand our ability to delivery quality programming for individuals and and families
  • To become the local hub for quality services and programs, we will build mid-day program partnerships, enhance and modernize technology across the facility, and develop, test, and grow new offerings for diverse audiences.
Build visibility and awareness to increase engagement
  • To improve visitor experiences and expand utilization of the center, we will develop better brand awareness, enhance messaging, and strengthen joint marketing with our partners.
Diversify and expand revenue for long-term sustainability
  • To ensure the longevity of the center to serve the community, we will enhance program offerings, develop new predictable streams, and drive strategic planning and measurement to maintain SPCC's future as an integral resource for the Anne Arundel County community.
Develop holistic health and wellness initiatives
  • To promote the center as a multi-generational destination for healthy lifestyles, we will create a holistic wellness focus for all ages, develop community-centered health events, and expand relationships with wellness and mental health partners.

SPCC is a non-membership facility. Visitors pay only for the program or activity of interest - some of which are at no charge at all.  In 1997, through the gracious donations of community members and with a limited amount of county funding, a $6m renovation and expansion was completed.  It has transformed the corner of Cypress Creek Road and B&A Blvd. in Severna Park into a state-of-the-art public recreation and meeting facility. The Severna Park Community Center is the only one of its kind in the area. 

Though the building is complete, SPCC continues fundraising to pay off the cost of the expansion and remaining construction debt.  To support the center in its mission, please consider volunteering or donating to Severna Park Community Center.

What Our Community Is Saying

As a former competitive swimmer myself, I introduced my daughter  to swimming at a tender age of 6 months; however she was so terrified of being in any body of water such that even giving her a bath was quite a challenge.
 However at age 4 she suddenly told us that she wanted to learn how to swim and so we brought her to Severna Park Community Center (SPCC) and what a beautiful experience we have had. The instructors are so polite, professional and sensitive to the needs of each individual child and our daughter fit right in.  At SPCC she has progressed from not knowing how to swim to being one of the best swimmers in her age group! We as parents are so proud of her achievements at SPCC with the help of the super wonderful aquatic center staff.  We highly recommend SPCC aquatic center to any parent that is serious about having their child/children learn how to swim and you will not be disappointed!
