Latasha Moore· 8 months agoI started going to this community center after finding out they have toddler time on Tuesday mornings from 9am-11am. They usually would have toys, balls, hoops and all other sorts of fun things for toddler to interact with. We loved it! The time worked out great too since we would go from 9am to 10 then head straight to the main library for story time from 10:00-11:30. Great place to go on Saturdays as well they provide open gym and some classes for adults such as meditation yoga. The facilities are always cleaned and smell nice at first entrance. I’d recommend this place for sure
Cany· 4 months agoThe badminton club on Thursday is amazing. Everyone is so nice!!
oK bUdDy· 2 years agoOne of the best places I could recommend to take your kids for a fun and inclusive summer camp experience. I've gone to the camp for 8 summers and have worked as a volunteer CIT and I must say it's been a blast every summer no matter the temperature or weather! All of the activities and dress up days keep a new, fun experience that never gets old!
DENISE KING· 9 months agoThe staff is always friendly and helpful. My kids really enjoy attending this center.
BAWANA PERRY· a year agoI was there for a youth bball game. The parking is a little snug but the inside is nice. They have game tables for the kids and a nice gym.
