★★★★Kisha DGoogle maps wasn't the best in directions. Kept trying to get me to drive down a one way.
★★★★★LynShissler is truly a gem. Ms. Deven and the rest of the staff have a genuine love and respect for children. Kiddos are very happy there, and very well cared for. The City should give this wonderful facility more funds and attention. The rubber floor of the outdoor playground needs replacement, and the gym/basketball court could use an update as there is peeling paint.
★★★★★Schuyler WaldenThis is a great place to take your kids, from ages 1 - 10ish. It has got a playground for the bigs and littles. AND it also has a splash park on those hot days when the kiddos need to burn some energy outside.
★★★★Beatrice ElliottIt has soooooo many beers and Beatles it's scary. Fun place for little kids kids 7+ there is not much to do outside for them no swings just a jungle gym. Small water park indoor activities are for the summer camp not other kids passion g by
★★★★★Bonnie HopwoodAffordable and caring day camp for kids. My daughter attends the summer sports camp here, it keeps her active and she loves it! They have a really nice playground with sprinklers that the kids love to play in. Staff is excellent.
