INFO
What is a Recreation Center? Recreation Centers are quality-of-life facilities where people of all ages in a community tend to gather for a combination of active recreation, fitness and wellness, sports, social gathering, enrichment, and community programming that allows different generations to use the facility independently or together. The concept also supports parallel programming, where different members of a household can participate in activities at the same time. For example, a child attending a youth program while a parent exercises and an older adult uses the walking track. Operational funding typically comes from fees and charges such as memberships, daily admissions, programs, rentals, etc.
