Baltimore City Recreation and Parks

I have called Amy the supervisor over Lillian Jones Recreation Center for one week to inform her about the lack of supervision with the after school care and how easy it is for any one to walk inside of the center. On multiply times I was able to enter the building without seeing any staff and taking my child home. The director Brandy tries to talk down to parents and is barely at the center to address any questions or concerns. If I could have left zero stars I would.

There are misconceptions about Baltimore City Parks and yes some parks are in better condition than others but overall, the parks in Baltimore are a great place to spend time and have fun. There are also many volunteer opportunities and Friends Groups that help maintain the parks, trails and rec centers. I personally enjoy going to Gwynns Falls and Druid Hill. There's so much to do!

I visited Patterson park swimming pool July 24th with my 3 children ages 6,9,16.nThere was a man an a woman kissing and to me doing something else in the water of the pool so I stood up and told them not to do that because there were some 50 + children in the pool, the lifeguard ADia Stocks, was very angry at me for stoping the couple, she yelled mean things to me from her booth, after the incident she waited about 10 minutes after I talked to the couple and came furious towards me even though I was not angry neither the couple in the pool ( they understood my request and stopped doing what they were doing ) but Adia Stocks decided that that was not the end of the story she told me with a angry voice : pick up your kids and get out of the pool!!!nI told her that her duty is not to disrespect me but to protect the children in the pool from situations like this and she was just out of control, really rude person, viciously angry, aggressive and continue to threat me with calling the police which she did ( I guess she was enjoying the view of the couple In the water and I ruined the show. I couldn't understand her behavior she should been on my side ... I repeated to her that I did not do anything wrong my right is to protect my children I don't want people doing inapropiate things in front of them plus I paid for all of as to get there.. anyways the police that work in the pool told me I had to leave too, that if I had complaints I had to take it somewhere else.. I am Hispanic they were all black people.. I think racism played a big role one this... other wise I could not justified what happen... so please be aware the life guard ADIA STOCKS is not there to protect children in fact she enjoys watching couples doing it on the pool were your kids are swimming and I will make reviews of what happened to us on every possible internet site that alouds to review the Patterson park pool of Baltimore since I don’t have the time to do a lawsuit against the abuse tours my children and I.

This is managed well

I don't just work there, I'm a participant! ud83dude01
