★★★★★Kristin CampbellHave been coming for 20 years. It’s not fancy but this place has so much heart and soul! You can feel it when you walk through the door. Everyone belongs.
★★★★★Amy BaggottThis is one of my kids' favorite places! We have taken advantage of all three core areas on which the Riekes Center focuses - nature programs, creative arts programs, and physical fitness programs at all different age levels, and we are so impressed! Their summer programs are awesome too. The strength of this organization are the amazing people who are involved as instructors and administrators. Our family has truly enjoyed getting to know the special people who run this place - Gary Riekes is the best!
