Once a week, I'm lucky enough to beat someone in the face senselessly and get away with it. After…read morethe cops leave my house, I find my way over to Eastern Regional Park and play some Baltimore County Dodgeball. Yep. Every Saturday I hoof it from D.C. to Baltimore explicitly to throw balls at faces. Hard. Why? I mean, besides the obvious of the epicness that is dodgeball, it's once a week (Saturdays at 11am... enough time for me to show up still a little bit drunk, but awake enough to participate). It's also only $10 for the season, you heard me, ten whopping dollars (first day is free to try out). Seriously, I just shit a bacon cheeseburger that cost me more than that (to be fair, the poop was pretty fantastic). Fourthly, it is FUN. Super mega bonus karma points? It's county run, which means it's NOT run by United Social Sports... nothing against them, there is a time and a place for USS, however, it's nice to get a break from the 40+ dudes that want to power punch a rubber dodgeball at you so hard your ovaries leap into your throat. Plus, there aren't set teams. New ones are chosen each week depending on the rate of participation, and it enables you to play with a variety of different types of players, adjust your own game, etc. The folks there are friendly enough to help you out with different tactics/techniques if you ask. Some additional deets: - Six 8" Voit Foam balls are used during play (word on the street says Gator Skins will be on their way, so there's that). I bring my pink Gator Skin (aka Pink Thunder) with me, too. - Indoor Basketball Court with white lines for the borders (don't know the exact measurements off the top of my head, but they are NADA Regulation sized I believe). Yep, during the blistering summer, it's one of the few indoor sports where the players skin doesn't turn into delicious delicious bacon. - Parking is plentiful. Coming from DC, I welcome the availability of places I can drag my metal machine without having to worry about whether or not i just took up two spaces (I'm a terrible driver, so I probably did... okay, lets just assume I did). - Co-ed, and all ages (signing a waiver is likely a requirement) So basically, if you don't come out and play every Saturday at 11AM at Easter Regional Park, I'll eat your babies. A lot. P.S. I don't think BCDB has a direct website, however, they are on Facebook. P.P.S. After sitting and watching Maury level drama unfold in my other (non BCDB) super stuffy Dodgeball league, I must say, I can't wait for Saturday to come.

Seeing as one of my buddies runs the thing, I highly recommend it!…read more Dodgeball at it's finest: No pressure pickup, a fun and friendly atmosphere, and all skill levels are welcome. The times have changed, currently it's running on Sundays from 1000-1200 and it's $25 for the season or free to come and try it out. Right now the Season runs for 10 weeks, but every person who signs up tacks on another week of play. If you have the time, I urge you to give it a try. After a rough week at the office it's nice to throw some balls at my best friends.

The entry into this gym is free and they offer some free/low cost classes. Check-in to the gym is pretty easy and the facility is kept clean. Also, there is free parking available. This facility is great if you want to stay active for no more money in a nice facility and they have a small work area for work-for-home employees. This gym is also great for aquatics for the kids. If you are a "gym-rat" this may not be the space for you. All in all, it's a great facility for the community and I hope it continues to impact Baltimore positively.

I…read morewant to start off by saying that Baltimore truly means it when people talk about building the city into the best version of itself. This facility is beautiful, and the staff make it even better. I attended a wellness expo here this weekend and truly felt surrounded by community and connection. This center was created with the intention of making Baltimore a better place and providing a space where both kids and adults can benefit. The bathrooms are HUGE and clean, there's a giant pool, basketball hoops, a gym, and an indoor track. I could keep listing all the amazing features, but everyone needs to come and visit for themselves. I am so impressed not only with the design and amenities of this place but also with the wonderful energy it has. I can't wait to come back!

Never played duckpin bowling and it was confusing but fun Hahaa…read more Don't know how to score on paper the old school way much less the rules of duckpin which lets you bowl 3 times vs two in normal bowling The pins are smaller and I guess have a duck bottom and the balls are way smaller and lighter so it takes some adjusting to when rolling them!

Stumbled on this course while biking nearby. Grateful they were open to let me go out around 4:30p…read moreish. (One Oct Sunday evening (2022))$18 to ride 9) I've only been playing about 18mths. And only played about 20 very varied courses. Each have had its own pros and cons and thus comparing would be pointless It's not Scotland nor the masters. It's slap in the middle of the city, so yes. There's traffic and cars going by and music will be heard. I think there's at least two "through ways" slap in the middle of the course (so look both ways before crossing infront of speeding vehicles). The other city course I played in Bmore is alongside a highway. I've played the President course which is alongside a military airfield..pick your poison Unlike many courses, no 9 does NOT end at the clubhouse. (They should tell you the is when you first head out) No markings "eye level" that say which Tee, but it's written on the cart path. Some Signs say "to next tee"; it would be nice for it to read the actual "next tee NUMBER" A couple of cool views from above the city, and a male deer, then an entire family of deer, almost ran me over...so there's nature too. The greens were gorgeous. Fairways could be better, could be worse. But seems like a great place to practice your game, not pay a mint, and focus on technique rather than "what you wear". I'm a 55yo female, played alone, and had no fear. I saw one person walking the course. he was Relatively young and seemingly plays there often. I am in NO SHAPE to walk this course. Seemed to be lots of hills/inclines/declines, Crossing of streets, and a couple tees were "not" right next to the prior greens. Glad I got a cart and left my push cart in the car! Because many hits were up hill, downhill, or blind...and I didn't always hit it straight down the fairway, I lost a couple of balls "in plain sight" off to the left or right Not in any woods or trees or brush.. just likely hidden under the fall leaves or deep grass. Alas. Tis part of the game No water hazards. I was not bothered by the sand. And lots of wide open space. I only got to 14 before turning in the cart by "curfew", so I'll def come back I suppose they could "pretty up" the place, but I'm sure that would mean higher prices They could re-fence all around to keep walkers from cutting across, but they've likely tried (unsuccessfully ) to thwart a kid who doesn't feel like walking a mile out his way after school to go around. Cart paths were kinda rough in spots. The carts will beep if you get too close to the greens. Clubhouse was clean and well lit. Snack bar was closed but there are QR codes on the course that says food can be delivered anywhere when ordered -will have to try that out one day I'll def be back

It is fun to attend Stevenson hockey games here, as well. And, it is nice with the turf option for local leagues, like Reisterstown Baseball.

I wish they would re-open the snack bar and have skate sharpening, but otherwise, Reisterstown Sportsplex has, and always will be, a second home to me.

Skaters need to have earned the LTS USA Free Skate 3 rewards patch or they will be denied service. Again, freestyle sessions are not open skate sessions, I get that. I started skating again after being off the ice for years because of work and caregiving. I lost everything and I'm trying to get everything back. Slowly I'm getting things back. No coin- operated lockers were there when I went to the rink in 2020. There was no designated waiting area besides the parking lot in 2020. No pro shop with a qualified, experienced figure skate technician in 2020. Hope the rink has those things it didn't have in 2020.

Played in November on a late Saturday morning and we're talking $33/person including the cart. I will admit that the pace of play is a bit slower. Also battled some geese along the way. There's not a lot of hazards, fairways are a bit close together so you may so people in your fairway that are on the next hole. 7 par 4s and 2 par 3s (holes 6 & 7). You can see the flag on just about every hole. I believe it is hole 2 and 9 that are the only ones where you can't see the flag. It's a city course so don't expect all the bells and whistles. Gotta give a shout out to Sal. He keeps things fun as the starter, cracked a few jokes, and will give you some pointers. Plenty of parking on the lot. There's no driving range, but there's a green for you to get some putting and chipping in.

I visited the golf course, not to golf, but for a soca for breakfast event held on the golf course…read moregrounds. With that said, my review focuses on the grounds of the facility and not the actual course and/or staff. My biggest reason for giving the golf course three stars was the parking lot. The gravel covered lot was absolutely horrible! It was hard to drive on and they had piles of the same gravel throughout, further limiting the already limited parking. My friend basically had to park on a gravel pile with the front of her truck partially in the street. They really should do a better job with this lot. As for the grounds, they were beautiful. The lawn was very well maintained. The grounds were free of trash or any other debris. It's is a shame that the parking lot didn't get the same care. As for the soca for breakfast event, it was wonderful. I would definitely consider coming back for other events at the golf course. Hopefully, the issues with the parking lot will be resolved before then.
