★Steven MillerMelissa Clarke-Wharff and staff were incredibly rude to my children. A few weeks ago, my kids took time out of their day to help out at Courage League only to be disrespected. Disappointed.
★★★★★Peter BissingerWhat a fantastic place for kids with special needs to exercise, play, and make friends. Melissa Clarke-Wharf is a true hero for opening and running this place.
★★★★★Jan JonesOur boys (ages 2 and 3) had fun today with the classes and open gym. All of the staff were so nice and helpful! I love the punchcards they sell: it was a great gift idea for the grandparents and provides our children a great way to expend energy on a cold, snowy day.
