Calvin Foster· 9 months agoI love open gym on Fridays! The basketball court is new and well maintained. The staff that work there are very nice and professional. Thanks Maggie for helping with the under-inflated basketball today!

Kelly Norman· a year agoThis is a great community center for sports! Youll find us out here every Thursday night for volleyball. There is a $3 fee that we happily pay to play vb at a great level with a solid group!
Michele DeVinney· 2 years agoSherry France and crew keep this place Immaculate and well maintained. She truly cares about the people that come to this community center which is more than I can say for most places for sure. Friendly professional very reasonable rates and accommodating!
Liz E· 8 years agoFirst of all, the center did not update their operation hours on Google Maps. It shows as if they close at 5 pm during the business days but they close at 9 pm. I went there for free table tennis/ping pong classes for adults and I met the instructor. Fred is a very passionate man who knows how to play ☺ He was caring, patient and encouraging. Ping pong is a great and fun exercise which enhances reflexes as well as keeping you in shape. I'd highly recommend giving it a shot.
