Who We Are

Kendrick Recreation Center has been providing recreational gymnastics to children in the Philadelphia area for over 40 years.

The city-subsidized program targets underserved, urban-based children, thrives on fundraising and stipends and is run by Program Director & Team Coordinator Janette Mancini.
