Powered by GoogleGreat concert, fabulous staff... even though a fire alarm went off and we had to evacuate. Lol!
Great facility for parties, dances and dinner events. Large commercial kitchen and spacious main room with equipment for lighting and sound options.
Terrible customer service and support. My son is taking a class with the community center. He is 16 and does not drive. I asked for a refund or credit for his remaining classes due to me having had surgery a few days ago. I explained that he does not drive and I am his only source of transportation. Dismissively, rudely and unprofessionally I was denied. Not even a moment for consideration. Take your community business elsewhere.
We hosted a non-profit fundraiser gala here with about 125 adults (80s Prom theme) and were very happy with the venue staff and accommodations. They had a lot of amenities - banquet and rounds tables, modern grey chairs, podium, rolling dry bar, projector, etc. Our caterer was able to use the large kitchen onsite for prep. There are plenty of restroom stalls for both men and women. We were also able to connect via Bluetooth to the speaker system during set up which made the process more enjoyable! Take-down at the end of the night was seamless. Staff was present throughout the entire day and night, helping adjust lighting and the sound system as necessary.
Great community learning resource for every member of your family - art, dance, kids-specific (from 1 - HS school age), music, spring break and summer camps, etc. Classes are reasonably priced and the price is the same whether you are a WC resident or not. There are some early evening and Saturday classes too. And music, dance, and art classes special to homeschool students during the school year. CCAC offers an extensive toddler - preschool program (2 - 5 years old), including Mommy and Me classes. Kiddos love their 90 minute Terrific Terribly Twos class with Ms Julie. In the preschool setting, this weekly class is geared to get 2 years ready to attend preschool. She has a weekly theme with 3 art stations, storytime, music, dancing
