I'm traveling through this small Nevada town called Mesquite looking for a truck stop shower. Having no luck I pull in to the gym. It's well sized, clean, and it has Andrew! He did the most. The shower was only $2, and as Andrew pointed out, that's only because it's the weekend, otherwise it would've been free! Free I tell you! WOW... I'm not in Sacramento (or any other town I've ever inquired about a shower at the gym before!!!) He went on to offer the family bathroom after I asked if my service animal could come inside. I thought that was an incredibly kind. We talked to some about a small town living. And he went onto share some of his aspirations. I think that this young man would make a fantastic entrepreneur and I think the town here would benefit from chipping in and donating money to this young man ... or simply investing, so that he could open a family fun center with miniature golf, go karts, maybe some bowling, darts, water balloons; you know those sort of things. Some final thoughts on the gym. The runs were spacious and the atmosphere was active and busy, but relaxed and "familiar"... I like bit like home.

Let's start from the beginning, shall we? I had just given birth to my third child when my sister…read moreconvinced me to enroll my two-year-old in the "Parent & Tot Tiny Tumblers" class--which sounds intimidating, right? At the time, he was mostly non-verbal and had an intense fear of new people and places. After just a few days of what felt like pure torture--filled with non-stop tears and screams--he turned three. At age three, the kids graduate and you get to send them off to "Mr. David's Tumbling Tots." Once again, I was convinced to sign my boy, Jaxson, up. This time, it was two days a week of intense, fear-fueled tantrums. After eight months of private therapy with absolutely no progress, I was desperate. And Mr. David kept telling me, "Keep coming back." Two sessions, eight weeks, twice a week... it got to the point where other parents literally asked for my schedule so they could enroll into the opposite days. And then, Jax touched the mat. He didn't actively participate right away, but simply touching that blue mat freed mommy from the back pain of standing for 60 minutes--or playing a real-life version of Where's Waldo. (A part of me still wonders if he genuinely forgot I was hiding behind that mat, or if it was all part of his plan.) Fast-forward to the present: Jaxson is now four and a half years old, and he is the most talkative, confident, and highly coordinated little man in town. He has truly blossomed, and I owe that recognition entirely to Mr. David. After seeing Jaxson's incredible progression, I enrolled my other two "gremlins" as well. I truly cannot rave enough about how amazing of an instructor he is. Watching their confidence skyrocket, their strength increase, and their behavior improve made me think, "Hey, I could use some of that." So, yes, I joined adult gymnastics! If you are reading this and contemplating coming to this rec center, look for me. I'm the woman on the floor, or the one chasing a little blonde, curly-headed girl around who constantly gives me a run for my money. I will definitely convince you to join. By the end of a session, you honestly wonder what kind of magic Mr. David possesses to get twelve three-year-olds to actually listen. It comes down to the immense effort, compassion, and time he invests in each child. It is rare to find someone who puts their entire heart into what they do. As long as you take your child consistently, they will blossom too--I promise. My children and I are living proof. Since I am now here five days a week, I have met the entire staff, and they couldn't be more welcoming. They are genuine, good-hearted people who make the atmosphere a thousand times better, especially when your kids are acting like... well, "little angels." To me, Whitney Ranch Recreational Center has become my second home. Being here brings me so much joy, and I am incredibly grateful to have found such an amazing program and community.

My son started in the mommy & me class at 2 yesterday old and transitioned to the 3yr old class with Mr Davids help. My son did not want to be in the class without me but Mr David's flawless coaching and laid back attitude with the kids did the trick. Now he's 3 1/2 and goes in without any problem.

It was the first time our furbabies registered for the event, and first time they ever experienced swimming in a pool!! Fiji and Makana had a pawtastic time!!! It was so fun to watch them frolick unleashed under the sun!! We paid $11 per dog to spend time in the water from 11:30am to 1:00pm for their weight class (40lbs+). We just had to make sure proof of vaccination was good to go. I thought we'd be in and out of the pool within 30 mins, but we ended up staying the entire time. We brought a jug of water, a dog bowl, lawn chairs, and our tennis ball thrower. Once we walked in, there was a table full of bandanas and tennis balls that were complimentary for all puppers! Plenty of lifeguards on duty, too! By 12:30pm, there were at least four pet vendors highlighting their businesses. I ended up with some frozen yogurt cups and apoopie bags for free! Keep an eye out on the City of Henderson Calendar of Events. We would definitely sign up again in a heartbeat!

The refuge is administered by the US Fish and Wildlife Service. Since this is a remote area, there…read moreis no visitor center nor rangers as one sees in other refuges or national parks and recreation areas. Instead, it is "staffed" by volunteers for US Fish and Wildlife. The area once had a number of resorts because of the warm spring waters. At one time, much of the area was owned by Howard Hughes. Supposedly he bought the land after seeing it from a plane flying over the area. This is home to a wonderful display about the endangered Moapa dace, a small fish with two fins on the bottom of the stomach. There is an area where there is warm spring water from above that flows through a specially constructed exhibit that allows the fish to live in the stream but also allows visitors to see the fish through the glass. After seeing the two dace that were in the one section (pointed out to us by one of the volunteers), we started a walk around the refuge. It is enjoyable to see how creatively they used the terrain to create this refuge and to protect the dace. We did not hike to the viewpoint at the top of the hill, but saved that for another visit when the need to visit a riparian area beckons us. This is out of the way for most people to bother with, but it's a super way to leave Las Vegas and enjoy the rural setting and the water.

It is not open in the summer months past May (I can see why as that area gets hot!). It is much smaller than other refuges located within a few hours of Vegas, but still nice to visit. I recommend bringing a lunch and sitting on top of the hill and taking in the nice views from there. One draw of this refuge is the moapa dace, a fish on the brink of extinction and unique to this area. There is a viewing water tank where you can see these in their natural habitat and it is so fascinating and neat to see! There are restrooms here and volunteer rangers; the rangers we saw were both very nice and informative. Great escape from the city for an afternoon!

Proceeding Check-in #6 to the Silver Springs Recreational Center, I will share my thoughts. This is…read morea City of Henderson Recreational Center tucked in the Green Valley community between the Pittman Wash Trail and Silver Springs Park. The amenities that it provides include outdoor swimming pools, tennis, events & activities, a dancing room, and more. It also provides the needs of my recreation, which is hiking. The Silver Springs Recreational Center grounds is connected to the Pittman Wash Trail. It is at my favorite location along the Trail where a picturesque landscape of mature trees provide a canopy of shade throughout the year. At this scenic spot, the Silver Springs Recreational Center grounds extend across Pittman Wash to the amphitheater and Pittman Wash Overlook. Here, hikers are able to ascend down a trail onto hiking trails that follow the meandering wash. Oftentimes on my Pittman Wash Trail, I have turned onto the short walking path between the swimming pools and tennis courts then crossed Silver Springs Parkway into Silver Springs Park across the street. In reality I have been here more than six times. Walking through Silver Springs Park, which I would count as a recreation center amenity has extended my time in the Henderson Great Outdoors. From my visits to the Silver Springs Recreational Center, I discovered that the restrooms are the cleanest restrooms along the Pittman Wash Trail. I am impressed by the high standards of cleanliness in the restroom and throughout the facility. If only Yelp Tips was still around I would of posted this. Recently, after hiking along the Pittman Wash, I found out that they have vending machines. This was very beneficial when I developed a deep thirst on the hike. The $3 bottle of Coke was a lifesaver. The reality is that there is a long distance from the beginning of the Pittman Wash Trail in Arroyo Grande Park to Pecos Road without proximity to cold beverages. Again, I will say "If only Yelp Tips was still around." Before voting on this review, let me bring up "voting." I have early voted here twice during the past two President Elections. My observation is that the Election aspect was managed well, where finding a parking spot could be a challenge. The parking lot here is relatively small to accommodate Election voting and events. I have seen it fill up to the point where people park across the street in the Silver Springs Park parking lot. On the aspect of voting, I will close off this review by casting a vote of Four Stars for the Silver Springs Recreational Center.
