Seems like a nice place, but it was not set up well for gymnastics. There wasn't enough room for comfortable seating around the gymnastics equipment. Compared to convention centers and other venues that we have been to this year, this was the worst.

Very nice recreation department. The parking is terrible! So many vehicles were taking up 2 spots. Why? Maybe the parking spots are painted off for smaller vehicles. ? I wasn't real happy about that. We had to walk from the main building to the baseball fields because of the vehicles being double parked. When I go again, I will definitely go early so I can get a decent parking spot or I can take up 2 spots. 🤷‍♀️

Love this space. It’s clean, well-staffed and affordable. A variety of classes are offered. I love working out in the fitness center. There’s lots of equipment for all fitness levels and the equipment is modern and well maintained. I’m so glad I followed up on friends’ recommendations and found this place!

Closed the concessions to soon. Needed to shape up the fields between games or at least before bracket games.
