★★★★Christin A.Appreciate all of the activities at this place to involve community relationships. Wish that the walking trails were better take care of ( lots of poison ivy) and the facilities spruced up a bit. It is a blessing for the area.
★★★★★Doris RossThe event of the evening was quite enjoyable. It wasn't too long,but nicely timed. I enjoyed the atmosphere,food, seeing old friends,and meeting new ones. Honoring these individuals is a step in the right direction. The only complaint I have, if you can really call this one, is no napkins. Again,thanks for an enjoyable evening!
★★★★★Dejon CageThis facility is one I would most definitely recommend for big events such as parties, weddings & etc. The staff is so nice & welcoming! Especially Ms. Kimberly Brown she is an angel, last but not least you get your monies worth they allow you to really get your event together without rushing you or charging extra for decorating & set up hours in most cases they will event assist you with tables & chairs! Book this great facility you won’t be disappointed....
★★★★★Kathy MichaelThere is so much more offered there than there used to be years ago. It is truly a community center, with resources for families and health, the elderly , summer day camp for kids and more. The 40th year anniversary celebration was a terrific idea! The business expo should be a twice a year event. Mr. Newman, whom I knew as a child, would be very proud.
