Great time at TCs training center. I did the one hour assessment/training on the skating treadmill…read more. I learned more in that one hour than I have in the past few years. Rachel did a great job instructing, analyzing and coaching me during that hour. When I took what I learned on ice I noticed a difference in my skating after one session. I can't wait to go back next week. Update: I have now gone 3 times and cannot believe how much I have learned and improved!! I wish I had come years ago rather than waste my time at clinics that have 30 skaters and no individual attention. TC's is great for any age and level for learning and fine tuning skills.

My 7 year old son has started hockey lessons here in the past 6 weeks, and within our first lesson…read morewe knew we were hooked. The coaching staff is phenomenal. They don't baby the kids (which I love) but they are detail oriented, encouraging, and patient. Their communication is wonderful and prompt. My son loves to work and wants to improve his game, and this coaching staff has quickly shown they have what it takes to get him there while also letting him have fun. We drive an hour south to make it, and it's totally worth it. We are TC client's for the long haul, and my little guy can't wait to be back on the ice or tread. Coaches Tina, Scott, Kayla, and Olivia have been outstanding - can't say enough good things about them!

The basket ball courts are fantastic and always look brand new and when you look up, there is one of the nicest indoor tracks around. There are tons of classes to sign up for, super friendly staff members, and every thing you could want from a gym. Great locker room. Free lock and towells to borrow. state of the art water fountains to fill up a bottle and vending machines if you don't want to leave for a snack. Be warned, its not just students and the older crowds don't like to wear towels in locker rooms. Keep your head up when you walk in. Free for students. Parking available with permit. If you forget your UCard, you get in 2 times a semester (I think, don't quote me on that) with just your ID number. Much better than a $10 gym at home. If you commute, go here before you go home and save the expense.

I'm a huge fan of The Office and the Spinners were advertising an Office Trivia Night featuring an appearance by Leslie David Baker who played Stanley on the show. There was also a BBQ buffet included in the price. The BBQ was ok, not bad for a baseball game, but nothing to write home about. Burgers, dogs (with no grill marks), ribs, pulled pork and pulled chicken, corn on the cob, beans, but no corn bread. The trivia was fun too, some nice and easy questions and some real difficult ones. We didn't finish in the top 3, but we still had a good time. The promotions department really dropped the ball on the appearance by Stanley. He was there, but not for the trivia. He was up on the concourse and you needed a special ticket to see him, the $40 Office Trivia ticket wasn't good enough. No one from the trivia company or the Spinners mentioned this. By the time we realized this the Spinners were sold out (those were the words the employee who turned us away from the line used). It seems the Spinners are desperate for people to come that they have no problem misleading people into paying $40 for a single a baseball game. There was no value there on this particular night. Save yourself and check out the Portland Sea Dogs or Pawtucket Red Sox for the same or lower cost and a higher level of baseball.
