Madmartigan· 2 months agoYou are better off going to the library for activities. Nothing is included in membership. EVERY SINGLE class they have has a fee attached to it. So you join for a specific thing like to play picklballl inside or some of their indoor community groups and they’re all with fees. What a joke. I’m a local and have never seen a rec center nickel and dime people like this. Not everyone here is from CA or NY
Harlan BROOKS· 3 months agoHow can an 81 year old man be charged $2 to visit the Tarpon Springs Recreation Center because he lives in the unincorporated area of Tarpon Springs. Unbelievable!!!!!!
James Burke· a year agoWhoever is in charge of the Mens league for softball gives zeros cares about the safety of the players. The fields lights either dont stay on or dont come on at all for these games and at this point is completely unacceptable. Sending off emails to get it fixed only gets you so far.
Jacqui Myatt· 3 months agoThey offer a lot of fun stuff to do
Brian Lamarre· 3 years agoHi, I'm a snowbird and have been attending your facility for the past few years from November until April. I must admit that I am very impressed with the professional, friendly staff at the facility while I workout in the gym, play pickleball and bridge. Many thanks to Duffy, Jamie, Teshera(sp?) Angela and the staff. We are about to leave for Ottawa and already are looking forward to returning in November to use the great facility. Once again, great facility and staff - thank you. Brian
