Lunarie· 4 years agoReally good place to sit and relax at, many benches to sit on, (bonus for people who play pkmn go: 3 poke stops almost by each other.) They also extended their building, having gates and patio tables, as well as a boys and girls club entrance they added. people at the front are nice, basketball courts are awesome and bathrooms are always neat and clean
bacondasher· 2 years agoThis is a very good place and I had a blast last year because I went with my friends when we walked to school everyday now and then waiting for the school to open. The playground was my favorite because I used to miss being in elementary school because of recess 5 years ago. Would recommend hanging out here and chatting with friends.
Juanda Schelb· 3 years agoThis is a wonderful place for kids to come hang out! Not only that , they also offer several classes for kids to take. They have a dance room where kids can learn to dance, an display room and a game room. They proudly display the kids art work all over the building. What a good thing someone has offered the youth of Leesburg. The boys and girls club is a wonderful organization!
