★★★★★Becky YepLove the splashpad and the bathroom access. They also have free Santa photos during the holidays which is great!
★★★★★tommyBetter than Fishtown Diner. Big D and Jumbo JJ are the goats. Cool people cool staff. Great pickle ball players.
★★christian benitezUnwelcoming. My friends and I are were abruptly disinvited to an open play pickle ball event after attending one time. Their reasoning? We were not good enough(we won more than half the games we played?). It was advertised as all skill levels than was quickly updated to advanced or intermediate players after they had messaged us to say we were no longer welcomed on Fridays and that they removed us from the roster. It was really disappointing for us because we were having a good time and were looking forward to it! I can only imagine other politics were at play and this was attempt to exclude us so “their people” could play. Needless to say our feelings are hurt. Some “community” center
★★★★yolanda watsonThe facility and grounds are well kept inside and out (haven't been in the bathroom however)⁶/l. We've been there a few times around the same time of year and I love the life sized Grinch dressed as Santa Clause. Varsity basketball games are hosted there in which my daughter plays. FYI....parking is available for those attending the games in the lot up the street in the back of Garretti. There were at least a dozen flyers of upcoming events being held at the center so it seems they have lots to offer the community.
★★★★★Poejinx RandomPlay thursday basketball here with a great group of guys. The center itself is a great place in itself. Ive seen them do movie nights inside and outside weather permitting. Gymnastics is a big thing also. Great Staff is a big plus
