Memorial Day weekend marks the start of another youth curfew in Baltimore City as the unofficial start of the summer season begins.

City leaders are hoping once again to crack down on youth crime and the plan for the summer curfew is similar to last year’s.

“Any young person under the age of 14 out after 9 p.m. and between the ages of 14 to 16 after 11 p.m. without a parent or guardian,” said Mayor Scott.

The Summer Youth Engagement will once again have late-night hours for city rec centers and events like midnight basketball and block parties.

This summer, there will also be mobile recreation, which will travel into neighborhoods, the mayor announced on Thursday.
