Fair Lawn Recreation Center

There is a rude old man who repeatedly asked if i am a member. I answered no but that i am a resident. I asked him if i need to be a member to enter the facility and he said no. I offered my ID for proof of address but he just smiled so I thought i could go ahead enter and go to the second floor. He stopped me and wont let me go upstairs. He kept asking me about what am i going to do upstairs…. It felt like he was holding me downstairs until he is satisfied with my answers. It was humiliating. He was so rude and condescending. Paying property tax every month and cant even use these facilities

A wonderful little hidden gem right in the middle of Bergen County. Just saw a surprisingly well done show and will be back again.

I went here as a child with my grandparents, and loved it. There's an arcade on the second floor and basketball, track for running, ping pong (on certain days), and other sport events. However, when I arrived today, there was an elderly man that works there who was extremely rude when I asked to go to the center. I am a resident of Fair Lawn. I have lived in this town for 4 years. The man berated me by asking if I was a resident of fair lawn, 5 times, and when I attempted to show him my drivers license, which clearly shows my fair lawn address. He exclaims, "That's useless!!! you need a card!! individually," as he glares at me, my brother, and my father at the center. He did not explain the rules properly and it was difficult to understand. He was extremely rude. He then says, it will take 15-20 minutes EACH person to obtain this card, so in order to attend we will have to wait for an hour. This is not the DMV. This is a public building funded by the town. I think it is really disgusting to be so rude and have a power trip. Verify my identify and move on. I don't mind the long wait time, but being interrogated about whether I live there after I already have answered the question is extremely rude and unnecessary. It was never like this before when I visited my late grandparents and should not be like that now.

Tons of great stuff packed into this building. The auditorium is nice for the occasional play or formal event, and the basketball court is well-maintained and big enough with enough hoops for lots of people to use at once. The arcade is fun, especially for younger kids, although they no longer have my favorite game, Galaga. They even have pool and a free gym!
