I give it 5 not because it has all the latest and greatest equipment. And not because it is most affordable. I give it 5 because it is the ONLY gym I know in the area where I as a Christian man and wife can go without being bombarded with music with explicit lyrics and half naked people. It is a godly and peaceful environment. I would love to help raise money to improve the gym and make Gods gym the greatest of all gyms the way it should be.

I signed up for one month only. We needed a place to practice basketball every morning before my daughter started with her league. The people were kind, the courts were clean and always ready for play with no issues. I will say, please check their weekly schedules as they change periodically for pickle ball. No complaints from us! We also loved that above us was a walking track for anyone who wanted to do a few miles.

Absolutely love this place. My Boys love it there, and the staff are good to them. This was pretty much my oldest son's second home, before he passed. I will always appreciate The MAC, for being a safe place for my children, and the support they give to my younger son! LLE!! A true blessing to have a place like this in our community!
