The ladies are rude. Rather than say excuse me the after school program is in the gym they want to holler like I’m one of the kids talking about “where are you going?” The gentlemen have way better customer service and speak to you with respect. They come across as trying to be helpful whereas the women think they are talking to kids rather than parents.
Nice spot to bring the kids. You can relax while you watch your kids run through the water. I believe they turn the water off about 5 or 6
At a back-to-school event at the Larry Johnson Rec. This is my first time coming to this center and it is great to see this event coming together for those in need in the surrounding areas. Free haircuts, Food, drinks, fun, and school supplies.
Nice water park for kids any ages!!😊 Restroom available inside recreation center building!!
