Recreation Administration
Gerald Collins, Director
The City of Baker Recreation Administration (COBRA) was reestablished by ordinance of the Baker City Council under the leader-ship of Mayor Darnell Waites. The purpose of COBRA is to bring a variety of fitness, sports and lei-sure opportunities to the citizens of the Baker and North Baton Rouge area. Through our partnerships with BREC & other entities we will provide new and exciting activities and events in an effort to improve physical fitness, promote leisure awareness & increase community involvement.
Our Objectives
One of our goals at COBRA is to provide every person in the Baker & North Baton Rouge area an opportunity to participate in a fun, fitness activity of their choice. We will partner with local and national groups to provide new and exciting fitness, leisure and sports activities in a family friendly environment.

We will do our due diligence in locating resources and providing an opportunity to bring new and exciting recreation and leisure events to the City and the surrounding area.
