Centennial Commons is the University City Parks & Recreation center in Heman Park that hosts the department's Summer Youth Recreation program, a full-day day camp of daily recreation activities for youth ages 5 to 14. Campers use the center's outdoor pool, gymnasiums, indoor soccer field and other facilities across roughly eight weeks each summer. Run by the municipal parks department, with resident scholarship programs available for families who qualify.

★★★★★Kevin EndrijaitisFriendly place. Nice new turf in the indoor soccer field
★★★★Behailu BLovely place with wonderful people. I especially like Lynda!
★★★★★Maria KremsreiterThe ladies at the front desk are wonderful! Everyone is so helpful and I would definitely recommend the pool to swim in. There is a splash pad for little ones, a big pool in the middle with water volleyball, and you can bring floaties unlike other pools in the area. Loved my experience.
★★★★★Jermarcus PerkinsI grew up in University City MO. It's a great place to workout. I love their work out machines and indoor track that's upstairs (above basketball courts).
★★★★★Susanne S. RennerJust the most wonderful historic pool! It opened in 1934, and its main building has a stylish Italianate design. It's diversity of people beautifully reflects the U-City community.
