Meet Jacori Burke, recently assigned as the director at Mount Royal Recreation Center. He “grew up” in Baltimore City’s rec center system and brings a wealth of experience on what a neighborhood rec center can provide its neighborhoods.
Currently the City hosts most of its recreation center activities on a separate website: https://baltimorecityrecandparks.org/.
For this summer, the center is hosting a chapter of the city’s summer camp program. The center has a well-kept basketball court and hosts a variety of groups for pickle ball and basketball. There are two additional large, multipurpose rooms that can host a variety of community activities such as ping pong.
The fall schedule and offerings haven’t been finalized, and Burke welcomes ideas from the neighborhood. He can be reached at the center (1 pm to 9 pm) week days: 410-396-0374. The center is located at 120 Mosher St.
