Perfect neighborhood place to hang out, take classes, work out in the weight room. There is a little library. Outside has a nice playground and then a great walking path that goes about a mile through wetlands, another playground ending at a birgerville. Excellent place to take kids on bikes. Clean and safe.

The staff in the library portion was very professional and helpful. The computer system is a bit dated and runs slowly but works as its supposed to. Overall a good experience.

Great holiday craft fair ... way smaller than crafty wonderland and items can be had for a dollar on up so its a great place to take kids and let them find nice economical handmade gifts for family and friends. Its a tradition for us that we love.

Went to the playground in the back with my 3 year old. He loved it. Its got all the climbing things tiny humans need along with trees and something referred to as Fresh Air. It was a great time and kiddo burned through a boat load of energy. Swings, slides, climbing bars and more. Its a good playground.

This place is so great! Drop in childcare, classes like zumba, yoga, martial arts, amazing weight room. Everyone is very helpful and kind. Other users are extremely welcoming, and always make for a great visit.Theres also a beatiful walking trail and park on site, and a library. Theres even crafting events, and community events.Can you tell I love it here?

I am sorry to give such a low rating but my reason is the nest of ticks at this playground over by the picnic tables. I am told that these things latch on and can give you illnesses as severe as Lyme disease. As lovely and as beautiful as this community is, until they have it taken care of it and warned all of the parents of the many little students they have come here each day, I do not think I will be coming here again. Hopefully this infestation is taken care of soon so that we can return with the confidence that these insects will not be a danger to my children and myself. Proceed at your own risk.

It cant handle the size of popular events held there but after visiting for a recital I am looking to see what I can get my child involved in here. Downfall of being good I guess.

Great rec center all around. Small, with some great offerings for classes. They have a great (again, small) weight/cardio room that is rarely crowded and very affordable if youre in district. The staff is very nice.

They have everything but a pool. Lots of fun for kids. Summer camps, daycare, after school care, sports, boxing, martial arts, library, gym, good sized park, etc. Located directly on Fanno Creek Trail. Right next to a supermarket and gas station. Would be nice if they had a pool.

Great place to look for community activities. I primarily use their after school care. The kids are given time to do their homework, play sports in the gym or outside (weather permitting) and are even given dinner.

We loved our dance claas but the front desk staff was not very competent. I registered my daughter online at 800am on the dot for winter term online...but the system wouldnt take my payment so I tried to pay at the desk today when we came in for class and they deleted my registration i instead of letting me pay and then the class was full and no I dont want to consider an alternate time...i work full time and live in aloha...thank you for nothing...
