I visited a local recreation center last weekend and honestly had a pretty good time there. The place was clean and the staff were friendly enough, even if they were a bit busy. The gym area had plenty of equipment and the indoor pool looked well kept too. I joined in on a pickup basketball game and everyone was super chill about it. Only small thing is the locker room could use a tiny refresh, but overall it was a nice, relaxed spot to hang out and get some exercise.

I went over to this recreation center last week with a friend, and it turned out to be a pretty good spot. The place was clean, and there was plenty of space around even though a few groups were there. Staff wasn’t overly chatty but they were friendly enough when I needed help finding the locker area. The pool and gym equipment looked well-kept, which I appreciated. It’s not the fanciest place ever, but for a casual workout or just hanging out for a bit, it does the job pretty well. I’d probably come back whenever I’m in the area again.

Super accessible and clean facility with plenty of parking and great restroom setup. Kiddos love it. I loge the shaded picnic benches for moms~

I have a long relationship with the Richard Showers Center. It is a great place with room rentals but the programs make it so great for families especially single working moms. Their summer day camp was a life saver for me and now they support me in my efforts to pay it forward to the community. They have truly been a needed asset in our community so Thank you to the staff of the center.

Pink Shellz hosted our first trunk or treat fall fest here in the parking lot. It was great seeing the costumes. Police was on site for safety. No issues at all. The center could use some upgrades inside. This building has been around for a while. The splash pad was a great addition for summertime fun!
