Powered by GoogleGreat Camp for the kids during summer! They do so much with them, they never get bored. They have two water days a week, weekly field trips and they provide lunch. Well worth it!!
The staff were top-notch. My regret? I did not get her name. Clearly, on the older side of recreation centers. You can't argue with the maintenance. The event I was there for. The air conditioning was not turned on. An excellent venue to hold dances. Ocala: Job well done!
Attended the Business Expo 2023 hosted by Royal Queens Empowerment, Inc. & Kings in Brotherhood. The venue was very clean and had all of the amenities needed, including a kitchen. The event was great for local business vendors and was very well thought out.
Great for the community. Basketball courts indoor/outdoor playground
I went here today to inquire about summer camp for my children. Ms. Taylor was extremely polite, and helpful getting me the information I needed and even more information on fun programs for my children. The supervisor, I believe Mr. Baker was very respectful and thorough in explaining necessary information and making sure all my questions were answered. The atmosphere was very pleasant as well. I am excited and confident about my children attending their summer camp.
