Cobbs Creek Recreation Center

City of Philadelphia municipal offices are closed today in observance of Veterans Day. Offices reopen tomorrow. Today, we honor those who have fought to protect our country. Thank you, veterans for your service and sacrifice.

Staff at Cobbs Creek CEC visited Cobbs Creek Rec Center to make a Halloween Scarecrow. The theme was the witch in Room for a Broom. The kids really got into it!

Due to the trageic death of Walter Wallace, Jr. and the chaotic events resulting in the City this week, we sincerely regret that we must cancel our Trick or Tre...at Trail. But please stop by Cobbs Creek Recreation Center or Cobbs Creek Community Environmental Center to pick up your bag of treats for your child! We hope to offer you a great event next year. Keep an eye out for our other upcoming programs. Sincerely, Our Staff, Tony, Alicia, Susan, and Alex.
