Dear CUPF community,

As part of our ongoing commitment to maintaining top-notch community spaces, CUPF will be adjusting facility fees. We believe this will help us continue offering vibrant, accessible spaces for all. Curious about what's changing? 

Check out the charts in this post for a clear look at the upcoming fee structures, and the effective dates. We're here to make space for what matters—your ideas, your events, your connections.

MCPS - Fees effective August 24, 2026

📰Fee adjustments for the athletic fields, parking lots and tennis courts will go into effect August 15th, 2026.

SSCB - Fees to be effective July 1, 2026

The Interagency Coordinating Board (ICB) determines and approves all facility use permitting fees for Community Use of Public Facilities (CUPF). Note that fees apply for ALL the time a facility is occupied, including time needed for set-up, clean-up, and participants' vacating of the premises.
