This past weekend we had rain and ended up at Sports Galaxy all the way out in Hackettstown. For those that don't know, Hackettstown is way out in bear country...in the boonies. Sports Galaxy is a nice indoor turf facility with an 80'x100' field area that they can break down into different sizes, two batting cages and a party room. The owner and staff here were really great and gave the team some additional space and time on the turf after batting practice. I still don't know why a great facility like this is way out in Hackettstown, but I'm glad we got to use it. There are quite a few facilities like this that have sprung up around the state as soccer, softball, field hockey, football, lacrosse, etc have started to become year-round sports. Some of these facilities are too small and some are huge. Sports Galaxy falls in the middle. I hope these guys are successful out where they're located because the seemed like genuinely great people running the place.

Reserved an hour with Mike Mrugal, one of two golf pro instructors at this driving range. On the day of the lesson, I was running behind schedule and Mike was very accommodating to adjust his schedule, so I could get the full 60 minutes of instruction time. He was knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to my feedback. Provided some very simple and actionable tips that I could do on and off the golf course. It helped reinforce the good movements of my swing and build muscle memory. I definitely plan on going back to Mike after the season is over for some more tips to work on during the winter at the driving range. As for the location, it's a two-level driving range with different size of range ball buckets you can purchase (inside) for the ball machine (outside) reads the QR code on the receipt. The shop has the basics, in the event you forgot to bring something with you to the range. The lessons are taught in an enclosed shack that has a hitting mat and tv monitor for the instructor to provide instant feedback on your swing...nothing high-tech, but it is sufficient to visualize & communicate what you are doing right or wrong. Definitely I'll be visiting this place more often!!

I normally go to a certain range not too far from this location but the Toptracer digital flight tracking machines had peaked my interest. While my main focus is on ball striking, I wanted to go the extra mile and utilize Toptracer to get an idea of distance gaping my woods/irons. THE EXPERIENCE Things may have changed from some previous reviews but the golf mats were perfectly fine. There weren't any glaring wear issues and I've definitely seen worse. The golf balls were fine and still had dimples left so no complaints on that end as well. The real interest and determining factor of my experience was TopTracer Technology. With the help of the digital flight tracking machines that were installed in every stall, I was able to get some raw data that helped me distance gap my clubs. Keep in mind that all the data is relative to the conditions (especially cold conditions) but I was able to get the answers I was looking for. Toptracer is able to tell you carry, total distance, launch angle, and other useful information to help optimize your clubs. I personally used the data to see how I hit my multiple drivers and find which one I hit best. It was mission accomplished. Of note, there is a small practice green with some chipping mats surrounding it. There are maybe two holes that you can use for putting and the rest are mostly for chipping targets. OTHER INFO -In addition to golf, they have pickleball courts/mini golf/paintball/turfed field and other offerings to keep you interested -The cost was marginally higher compared to your typical range but in my opinion worth it. The small bucket cost 12 dollars here compared to 10 dollars to a normal one without the digital flight tracking. FINAL THOUGHTS While Anchor Golf is a little farther from the driving range I used to use, it's well worth it for the experience to see your raw data. I would recommend giving this place a try!

Knoll Gardens Pool is a clean, nice pool and big enough to bring the whole family. Opens in the…read moremorning and closes at 7 in the night. Such a good amount of time to enjoy. Fortunately, that wasn't the case for my family & I. At the start My family & I were racial profiled, felt unsafe and were falsely accused of many things. Beside from that each lifeguard kept staring at my family even after when we weren't in the water. At one point my kids got screamed at for throwing a ball around even though they were other kids doing the same as mine. One of my other kids who were older and with no kids around was using profanity in between conversation with other family members. The owner screamed at all of them in the rudest manner and they were told by her to "Shut up and watch your mouth". We stood quite because at that point we knew something wasn't right, and there would be no point to fight with someone as ignorant as they were. A couple of minutes passed by and she was cursing with other lifeguards and cursed at her own kids. Which at this point we can rule in hypocritical and racial behavior between the owners and staff. My family isn't "small", and we're all not "quite" nor we aren't stupid and lesser than anyone in the vicinity. Best Believe when we all come together to enjoy a place such as the Knoll Garden Pool, We bought chips, drinks (soda, juices and water) and food. Which is allowed at the poolside. While we were eating, and snacking on our things, we cleaned up and threw everything in the garbage. As soon as the cups and the food were placed in the trash, the owner and staff Accused my family of being under the influence to hiding liquor, even said we had the whole place smelling like liquor. They took it to the extreme by taking all of our trash from the trash and smelling each empty cup. Since none of the cups smelled like liquor the manager then went to opening water bottles on the table and smelling each one of them. One of the staff even has the audacity to take a sip out of one of the bottles, and all she sip'd was water. They claimed to smell alcoholic beverage in one single cup. I took the liberty to walk around the poolside and ask the other people enjoy the pool if they smelled anything that closely resembles anything to liquor. Each and every single person we asked said no, that the cup smells like nothing. A Big Hispanic Family Racially Profiled and wrong accused of actions none of us did. Soon after, our every move was being watched by staff and the owner. They even placed a lifeguard to sit in the middle between our family. How inconsiderate can the staff and owner be towards my family. They were wrong during their assumption and to place a lifeguard in the middle as if we were animals that needed to be watched carefully. Knoll Gardens Pool closes at 7, it just so happened that by 6:20 the owner blew her Whistle and were screaming at my family to exit the pool, not even giving us more than a minute to exit. She was screaming at us like animals. " I don't care, my pool and I want you people out, I want you people to leave" Came straight from The proud owner of Knoll Gardens Pool. While my family were getting our stuff, we asked "why are you treating us like animals?" Just for The Owner to call the cops, and unfortunately a verbal fight broke out between a family member and the owner due to her rude and racial behavior. In the end, they treated us like animals, watched us like animals & kicked us out like animals that we are not. Little does any of the staff or owners know that they were video recorded during the verbal fight. They told the cops that we are rude and loud and drinking. The manager even called their whole family to threaten us And say " we called the cops, as if we were scared. And acted like we were scared of getting deported or something between those lines. All the statements that weren't true and the video will express those thoroughly. We aren't animals, we paid to get in, we deserve an atmosphere that didn't make my kids cry. Knoll Gardens Pool is a horrific display of racism to the illest extend. In the end, it's not about getting the money we paid back. It's knowing that racism is still alive and this memory will have the younger generation of my family scared of this type of behavior for majority of their life.

It's an excellent playground I can add to the rotation. Come out and play!

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.
