We've been bringing our children to Diamond Gymnastics since they were old enough to attend the…read more"Mommy and Me" classes. The instructors, especially Yasmine, are all phenomenal. They are flexible in allowing make-ups too. We've had several birthday parties there as well and all in attendance had a blast! The party rooms fit a decent amount of people so being able to have pizza and cake is definitely a huge plus. Most recently, Diamond was hit by the storm knocking out power. Rather than canceling the summer camp, they powered up with generators and made it work for everyone and they had a great time. I think that if you are on the fence about sending your child to classes or booking a party, it's an easy decision to go with Diamond.

We attended a birthday party here and had a wonderful time. Parking for the party was TOUGH - we…read moreended up needing to park in the very back by a dumpster (so we didnt block a fire lane) - we alerted the staff to make sure that was okay because their large parking lot was completely full! They have multiple private rooms, which makes having an event here super easy. There seems to be only one restroom in the back area, but everything was very clean throughout the entire facility. Our kids all ran around across the gym area and they had several attendants on staff. One (I assume the lead) was incredibly thoughtful and perceptive. He knew one of the kids had a medical issue and made sure to check in with the mother of that child, ensure he knew whom she was, asked if there were any triggers, what to look for if something was beginning to occur, etc. That in and of itself won me over 100% - that person obviously takes a lot of pride in their work and the safety and fun of those in attendance. We did pizza and cupcakes in the room - it was a bit tight but we were a very large group (over 20+ kids plus parents). My only, teeny tiny comment is that, after a neighboring party ended, they used a very harsh chemical (pine sol?) to completely clean and disinfect. I LOVE that they are diligent and thorough about cleaning, but wish they had a fan or air purifier running while they operated cleaning because several of the parents any myself had to move away and cover our noses due to a burning feeling by just being around the corner from this.

I just had water and like to take it everywhere I go. I understood but by the same token think it's very silly. I understand no outside food, but was just an annoyance. There is a cafe, a small "arcade" which was really about 3-4 arcade machines, a motorcycle racing game and some claw machines, and a bar. There's were about 30 lanes and when we arrived on a Saturday around 3, there was a 45 min wait. The wait went by quickly as we first got a bite at the cafe, then our name was called as we ate. The kids had a blast. We played 5 games across 2 lanes and paid around $150. Seemed kind of steep to me, but some bowler alleys so by game, some by hour. Overall a great experience.

There were so many structures that all the children had plenty of personal space. Special features included a roller-based slide, a zip-line, and a rope climb. It's an excellent playground I can add to the rotation. Come out and play! NOTES/TIPS: **Picnic tables, plenty of benches, and 2 porta-potties on-site. **If the main parking lot is full, additional parking is 200 ft. away. **The playground is next to a basketball court, baseball field, and soccer field.

Benches for eating are at the entrance located close enough to watch your kids playing basketball or on the playground. This playground is neat... truly a castle inspired theme. Great for playing peekaboo with your toddlers with many mazes to get lost in and still be sure your child is safe and can't fall out the sides (too easily). There's also a slide that can be climbed which my son was very intrigued with, once he got to the top he'd jump on the big boy slide and come out the other end, he's 14 months so there's really so much for him to explore. There's also bigger slides for older kids, different monkey bars to climb, kiddie and big kid swings, little castles with benches and tables to picnic in, and plenty of benches surrounding the playground for parents to hang out in. We lived up to our mantra: PLAY HARD NAP HARD! Baby was knocked out as soon as we got in the car so I must say it was a good day. My name is Francis and I approve of this playground.

Completed in 1930, the Georgian Revival-style mansion and adjoining auditorium have been a hub for Maplewood's vibrant cultural and civic life for over eight decades.

Not only that, the lot is narrow and dangerous to navigate, especially when a large crowd is trying to park. But the most infuriating aspect of the parking situation is the number of spots unusable for the general public, which are labeled "24-hour parking permit required," Are you kidding?? I had to gingerly back out of a prohibited spot and circle the neighborhood (most of whose streets had "no parking anytime" signs) for 10 minutes before finding a spot where I could park. Your facility needs to expand the available parking immediately. I advise any group considering holding an event at the Woodland to physically view the parking situation before booking an event.
