It is sponsored by Seattle Parks and Recreation. it's a big day of play for mostly kids and families. I went because Corepower had a booth for kids yoga. when I arrived I found out that they, unlike any onther group, was only there for an hour and I missed it Dang. 94.1 had a fun booth. A stage featured kids dancing and performing and also had dance lessons. Pemco took our pictures. I'll be on a website some day.. PCC has an elaborate game of getting tickets to let you get food. This process was not explained as I went from place to place and I ended up being denied an ice tea because I didn't have a ticket I didnt know how to get. DANG! People need a little info sheet to explain how to get tickets, give out samples and staff needs to speak politley to people who want iced tea on a hot day. I anticipate that next year PCC will improve their information about getting tickets. It's not about winning- its about having fun and being part of a family of many great fun healthy groups who promote health through activities. I spoke to some very friendly parks and rec folks. This event is getting bigger and bigger each year. If you don't get there today... 364 days will pass. Oh yeah, not on the website was free kayakig and free tacos from Taco Time. The 4 instead of 5 is because of the iced tea girl.. she could have nicely explained how to get a ticket instead of flatly refusing. and " that would defeat the whole purpose". What purpose?

I've been a member for over a decade, and over the years I've noticed a decline in several areas…read more The biggest issue is the water fountain. It's honestly one of the nastiest I've seen. The top around the water filter is rusty, old, and appears moldy. The drainage holes are dirty and moldy as well. This has been an ongoing issue for years, and it's surprising that such a basic part of the gym hasn't been addressed. The indoor cycling equipment also needs attention. There are two nice FreeMotion bikes, but they aren't being maintained. The pedal straps are constantly broken. One bike has essentially been abandoned, and now the other one has the same problem. Another issue is the hand sanitizer stations. While there are plenty throughout the gym, some stay empty for weeks before being refilled. Overall cleanliness has also slipped. The obvious areas are cleaned, but if you look at corners, door frames, and less visible spots, you'll find spider webs and bugs. It gives the impression that only the most visible areas receive regular attention. That said, there are things this gym does very well. The staff is always genuinely kind and welcoming without feeling forced. They hire great people. The workout machines are clean, and the new layout is a significant improvement. The reason I'm giving this a one-star review is the water fountain. It's been unsanitary for far too long, and clean drinking water is a basic expectation for any gym. Fixing that alone would make a huge difference.

I needed two rackets strung and I called Tennis Center Sand Point for a quote. I talked to the receptionist and she said she'll transfer me to the Pro Shop. I waited on the phone and I was left with a voice message saying the voicemail inbox was full. Ok, no problem, I called again and same receptionist picked up. I was then transferred again, and someone picked up...from the Tennis Center cafe. Er, what? I called a third time and was finally transferred to the Pro shop. I asked them for their prices and it was a bit steep in the price (which by all means is fine - I'm not arguing against their policy.) I wanted to ask another question and thanked them for the quote, and in the middle of my sentence, the guy in the Pro Shop, with the most monotone and rude voice, interrupted me and just said: "Have a nice day" and hung up on me. The nerve. Customer service just flew out the door. This interaction itself single-handedly made my decision to NOT go to Sand Point to get my rackets strung. Sand Point, you just lost a potential customer. And from all the 1-star reviews, this is not an isolated incident. From the rudeness to overall incompetency, I will be looking elsewhere to get my tennis needs met.

For my needs, the club has been great with tons of options for drop in classes based on level. Where it gets a little more difficult would be for folks who want to sign up for a 6 week clinic and especially for children as the demand is far higher than supply. There is also a pro shop, which seems to have gotten some mixed reviews, but I haven't had any issues with them and the quality of the string jobs tends to be better than Avanti Sports.

I am writing this to say ditto to everything from Hayley J's review! We just had our wedding here…read moreat the end of July and used the garden space for the ceremony, the patio space for cocktail hour and dancing, and the Hall for dinner. Couldn't have asked for a more perfect location for what we were looking for! That being said, there are definitely some limitations with this venue, so I've tried to list them below. Pros: - Very affordable, even on a Saturday afternoon/evening in the middle of the summer! (check their website for current rates: https://www.kirklandwa.gov/depart/parks/Permits_and_Reservations/Facility_Rentals/heritage_hall.htm#rentalhours). - No limitations on catering/bartending. You can hire whoever you wish to cater! - Air conditioning! This wasn't something I thought would be such a big benefit, but this summer the heat was atrocious and having the AC was such a relief. - 2 bathrooms (one on ground level, one downstairs). - I feel like this beautiful location was made for a wedding. Guests could flow so easily between each space (ceremony, cocktail hour, dinner), there were fantastic spots for wedding photos (e.g., the steps in front of Heritage Hall, the dock of Kirkland Marina Boat Launch, the huge gazebo at Marina Park Pavilion), and there were tons of bars just down the street in downtown Kirkland to choose from for the after party (we went to Flatstick Pub!). - The ladies at the City of Kirkland were so nice and easy to work with. I was planning this entire wedding from across the country and they answered all my questions and tried to help out in every way possible leading up to the big day. Thank you Lourdes and Nicci! - Check out their facebook page to really see how this wonderful space has been used by others for weddings and other events: https://www.facebook.com/pages/Heritage-Hall/161827740497253 Cons: - Limited space. The indoor part of this venue is only an option for those with a small number of guests (max capacity in the Hall is 70). We only had a wedding of 62 people, and I still had fears about fitting everyone inside Heritage Hall and having them seated for dinner. It ended up working out, but the tables and chairs weren't the recommended distance apart that all the stuff online suggests so I'm sure everyone felt cozy. - Parking. Not the most fun because there is no dedicated parking for events and the spaces directly around Heritage Hall are all metered or time-limited (e.g., 4 hours, which wasn't long enough for our wedding). I think our guests either parked farther away or moved their cars halfway through. - No chairs/tables for outside. The venue comes with 15 rectangular tables and 70 chairs that you can use inside of the Hall, but you have to separately bring or rent chairs and cocktail tables if you wish to have any outside. You also can't have equipment dropped off in advance or left beyond your rental period, so you need to pay to have same-day drop off and pick up. It ended up costing over $500 to hire a rental company just to drop off and pick up 52 chairs and 4 cocktail tables w/linens, so that was an extra expense I hadn't initially anticipated. - No AV system. This isn't really an issue inside Heritage Hall because the space is small enough it's easy to project your voice, but we ended up renting an AV system for $200 to use outside for music/mic during the ceremony and dancing. If you do this, just note there is only 1 outlet on the outside of Heritage Hall on the patio, so you may need to get extension cords. - No real kitchen (only mini-fridge). This might be an issue if you plan on having true catering or need to keep items cold. - Alcohol could only be beer and wine; no cocktails, hard liquor, or beer kegs. This was fine for us, but if you plan on having signature cocktails, you'll need to look elsewhere. Overall, if you are looking for space to host a small, simple wedding with no frills but amazing grounds and easy access to other locations for catering options, photos, and after party, I can't recommend Heritage Hall enough.

This location was absolutely perfect for our small wedding (50 people). It's a beautiful old…read morebuilding with gorgeous gardens. It was great for so many reasons - we could say, Hey our location only holds 60 people so we have to keep it small, sorry! The people at the city of Kirkland were so easy to work with, and it had air conditioning (which was great for our 95 degree wedding day on June 30th)! The slight downside of working with the city is that you can only preview the location during weekday working hours, and you only get 15 minutes to walk around, but believe me, that's all you need. We were all worried we would be rushed, but we walked in and you enter right into the room from the front doors, and it's all right there. There is a bathroom downstairs you could get ready in that you can't really see from the info on the website. There are plenty of tables and chairs available as well, but they are only to be used indoors, which worked out great for us. You can't find a better location right next to the water for the same price point. We were very pleased!
