Baltimore Pools Under Attack | Baltimore News

Baltimore’s public pools are under siege—vandalism is forcing closures and ruining summer fun. After a shocking Saturday night wreck at Towanda Rec Center left trash and glass everywhere, both pools were drained and shut down amid soaring heat. This isn’t a one-off: since late May, multiple pools—including Patterson Park and Roosevelt Park—have suffered from trash, feces, and outright destruction, disrupting programs and robbing kids of vital summer experiences. City officials are furious, calling it a betrayal of the community’s investment, while urging residents to report suspicious activity after hours. With safety at risk and pools vital to summer life, officials are pleading for public help to keep these spaces open and safe for everyone.
