Quarry wristband distribution begins May 15 at Public Works

While Duck Creek Quarry Park is open to the public for walking, non-motorized boating, paddle boarding, catch-and-release fishing, and dog swimming, the Duck Creek Quarry Beach will only be open to Howard residents, their guests, and non-residents who have wristbands.

• Wristband distribution for the 2024 swim season will begin Wednesday, May 15, 2024, at the Howard Public Works Department, located at 1336 Cornell Road.

  • Howard residents
    will get up to five free wristbands per family, plus two additional wristbands for guests. One adult member of the household must complete the wristband order form, show a photo ID, and provide a proof of residency (if not shown on the ID). Residents will be able to get wristbands at Public Works starting May 15 through Aug. 30.
  • Non-residents
    may get up to five wristbands per family at a set cost of $50. One adult member of the household must complete the wristband order form and show a photo ID. Wristbands are available on a FCFS basis starting May 15 until all 2,500 non-resident wristbands are gone.

  • Wristband distribution is only available during regular hours at the Public Works Department: 6 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 6 a.m. to 10 a.m. on Fridays.

*** Please note that wristbands will not be available at Howard Village Hall or at the beach and also cannot be mailed. ***
