The welcoming hospitality and attention and detail, safety requirements and safety resources for all to remain safe while having a good time were impeccable. We had a large group so we had both rooms. One was a car room and one was an electronic room all of our PPE "protective gear" was supplied by the company face shields, and damage equipment was also provided. This was definitely something that I would recommend for those that are seeking to get out frustrations to use as a meditation ritual in getting out an anger and frustration. Try it for yourself or with a group you would not be disappointed!

All foam flooring. The only thing I would've preferred to make things perfect would be to have some toys or something for babies to interact with. My son got bored quickly because he can't walk or get into the equipment without help so all he can do is crawl around. Maybe some sensory things out for babies to find and explore. This would've made me get a membership but since it didn't I'm still on the hunt for another indoor play place. Edit 5/19/2023: I have found the perfect place I was looking for. Highly recommend Richmond children's museum. Lots of fun things for baby to get into. This place is more of a safe gym for kids.

This is hands down the best neighborhood pool & recreation complex you'll find Richmond/Henrico!…read moreThe woodsy setting is so tranquil and beautiful. A social summer gathering spot that is kid friendly, unpretentious, and located in a lovely, quiet neighborhood setting. Best feature is the swimming pools (there are four!!) which are kept impeccably clean, as is the rest of the nicely landscaped property. Pools are open from late May through (September- Labor Day). The club has really stepped up its game with the 2018 expansion of the lap pool to 8 lanes and renovating bleacher seating. Snack bar is good, but cash only. Food is as better than you would expect for a poolside snack bar, and super convenient poolside. Lifeguards are attentive & on duty at all times, which is reassuring. They are also very courteous and friendly. The guards manning the diving pool even engage the kids in an entertaining game called "categories" as they jump off the board. Kids love it. There are 9 lighted tennis courts to choose from. All are in spectacular shape. I particularly like courts 8 & 9, which are nestled inside the woods, and great for shade if you catch at the right time. Though the bathrooms/showers/changing rooms are dated, they are kept very tidy. Amenities are numerous: 1. 8 lane lap Pool, with diving blocks 2. Family pool, with two tunnel slides 3. Diving pool, with two boards 4. Kiddie pool for the under 5 set 5. Plenty of lounges, tables & chairs (with umbrellas) 6. Snack Bar (cash only) 7. 9 tennis courts (two nestled in the woods) - and awesome tennis instructors!! Open year round. 8. Awesome swim & dive teams 9. Free parking 10. Locker rooms with showers 11. Outdoor Showers 12. Poolside playground 13. Basketball courts 14. Covered picnic table / BBQ area 15. Sports Field (soccer, etc) 16. Numerous fun events for kids & adults This is such a wonderful, family friendly recreation association and it has become our home away from home in the summertime. A great way to escape the daily grind, and the summer heat!

They have so many games and activities to enjoy including mini golf, an arcade and bowling. They also have a karaoke room but it's like $50 an hour and the weekday and $100 on the weekends, which is ridiculous. The food is good. The burgers are huge and so are the wings. If you don't like big wings I would skip them but they were delicious

My friends and I stopped in for a beer and something to eat. We sat at the bar and the service was…read morepretty good. The first surprise was that they hardly had any local beer options and most of them were sold in cans. With all of the great breweries in RVA, that's a big miss. Other places like this have significantly more draft options, including a lot of offering from both local and smaller breweries. I was hungry, but didn't find anything that looked appetizing on their menu (which had a lot of fried options and pizzas that were too big for one person), but my friends opted for the cheesesteak and and order of bbq wings, which were absolutely smothered in sauce. Neither was terribly impressed with their food. Overall, this place has a lot of potential, but it misses the mark.

Although, I will say, ELLE the house manager (very young girl) could use a teaching on possibly being more friendly. The other staff members from what we can tell are very nice and accommodating. Parking is fine and it is so convenient to the interstate. Wish there was a "senior discount" on the tickets though. Being a senior myself, that would be great. All in all, a wonderful neighborhood venue for theater.

I recently saw their musical production of A Christmas Carol and loved it! It was an inexpensive ticket to their theatre on Hamilton for some great entertainment. It's obvious to me that they work very hard to provide a quality production and these kids have talent! My only other production was a Jason Mraz fund-raising show last year that also included some of the students' accompaniment. Support Sparc!

My niece went to school in this area and came to the adjoining community center after school. It looked the same as it did years ago. The park has several big fields, basketball courts, a small playground, a sand pit, restrooms (which aren't very clean), a picnic area and some other amenities. But IMO, it needs some TLC and a facelift. For its size, I think it could stand for some more equipment and newer fixtures. I'm glad this neighborhood has a place for kids and kids at heart to play, yet it is in dire need of a spruce!

They have public bathrooms and water fountains near these picnic tables. There is a large area toward the back of the park which has swings jungle gym in a play area for children. They also have basketball courts a volleyball net with sand and plenty of soccer fields to play A variety of sports. Parking can be quite tricky if you cannot find a spot in there nearby parking lot you could always park across the street from the park. However be mindful of the parking is also designated for the apartment buildings of the gallery nearby. If you park across the street from the park beware that you are crossing a very large and busy intersection of traffic as majority of traffic is coming off of the interstate. Abide by the laws and use the cross walks for safety. My group of friends and I utilize the volleyball net and sand volleyball pit. While the net is not the greatest of quality and does sag it does provide an ample area for volleyball to be played. The sandpit is not easily marked for boundaries for an actual game however there is some sort of haphazard ribbon around the perimeter of the pit. I would recommend wearing flip-flops or sandals if you wish to play in that area. The biggest downside to this park is some of broken glass near the bathrooms and water fountains. Be mindful when children and adults are playing to not be barefooted around these areas. We came across a good amount of broken glass scattered around. Overall the park seems to be used quite often especially on the weekends such as on Saturday and Sunday. One of the smallest yet busiest parks in the museum district, and one of the best hidden secrets. Keep in mind that there are no dogs are allowed on premises, as well as no alcohol, weapons etc. and it closes at dark.
