Powered by GoogleWent there for a preschool graduation, they did an exceptional job decorating and serving the community. They truly have a good preschool program, children are prepared to enter kindergarten with essential skills to be successful. A special thank you the preschool team.
Looking for summer activities for your kids. This is the place. They are friendly staff to help sign up or just have questions. Stop bye in person to get your information and help signing your kids up. If some activities are too expensive don't be shy. Ask if they have scholarships to help pay if you qualify. Summer swim passes are also a great way to keep kids and family cool...at a great price.
Staff is always super nice and they have a ton of programs to keep kids and adults of all ages engaged and busy. Sign up for rec programs are super easy online or in person. My kids are16-5 and have been involved in rec programs since they were infants.
My son has been doing a t-ball fundamentals class here and had really enjoyed it. We have done several classes through the city of Buckeye and have enjoyed them all.
Exercise class is good, shape and strong. It is 8-9am every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. It is free. Make sure bring mat and weight like one pound or more. Wear very comfortable and loose.
