Kidventure is incredible! My son has gone for the last 2 summers and I can't rave enough about his…read moreexperience! Not only is the programming amazing (art, wonderful activities, splash days, characters, music and more!) but the counselors are top notch! They truly bond with your child and make camp a memorable experience. My child gets in the car each day and says, "MY DAY WAS AWESOME MOM!" They reward campers with things like "Camper of the Week" and ribbons and prizes, they teach respect, and they are on top of any issues that ever arise. In addition, the customer service the office provides anytime anything arises with registration or anything us moms need - over the top. They go above and beyond to make sure moms feel like they are taken care of. If you are looking for a consistent local summer experience for your kiddo - KV Camp is the one!

Make sure your child doesn't have too much fun, or CPS will show up at your door. These people…read morereally need some training on what abuse looks like. When comparing the CPS website's "signs of abuse" section to my child, there were ZERO comparisons. The next few weeks were filled with anxiety, depression, confusion, and just about every other emotion there is. All the company did was say they are mandated by the state, and they have no sympathy. This place is a joke. Save your money, it could possibly save your family from going through egregious allegations.

It's your typical college fitness center. I think they have seven basketball courts and one indoor…read moresoccer court all on the first floor. Above that is indoor track that runs around the whole space. You have to go downstairs to find weightlifting floor. I was expecting a light and fresh place, similar to Equinox. Instead, the walls are a light beige, making it seem kind of muddy, and the light is a little yellowish too. I was also a little surprised that they didn't have more squat racks (four). Although the number that they have for here is more than adequate I guess. They also have two Olympic lifting platforms which, interestingly enough, were being used all the time when I was there. It's nice to see people doing Olympic lifts, I used to think no one ever knew about them. Lockers Non-descript. The type where you bring your own lock, though most of the lockers are not day lockers but people's personal lockers. The showers seemed decent. Also, it seems one of the sinks was having issues, have no idea how long that had been going on but they way it was talked about seemed like it had been that way for a while.

Wow, this place is great! Super clean, super new, super cool :) The basketball courts are magnets…read morefor students wanting to start pick up games, and the rock climbing wall nearby looks like a lot of fun as well. They also have lines of cardio equipment, so you don't have to fret about not having one~ The swimming pool has a few lap lanes, a family wading pool, and an outdoor section with beach chairs as well. The area is pretty popular, so be prepared to circle swim ^^b kickboards and buoys are provided in a corner~ If you're not a student, then it's $10 per visitor for a day pass at the front desk. You can buy 10 passes for a slightly discounted price. I wish my university or current school had/has a student center as awesome as this one! The visitor pricing is a little steep for me for a single visit, but for students, this gem is free (sans tuition). Definitely don't miss an opportunity to stop by once!

I usually go to a different YMCA, but this one had pool hours that worked better for my schedule…read morelast week. So, I decided to check it out. Pros: 1. Separate pools for lap swimming and water-walking or water aerobics instruction. Hallelujah. 2. Pool lanes are quite large, so sharing wouldn't be difficult at all. That said, at the day/time I was there, I didn't have to share. 3. Towel service (hint: the large towels are inside the entrances to the locker rooms). 4. Garage parking underground is a super nice perk for a rainy day. 5. Friendly staff (but that seems to be all YMCAs). Cons: 1. Shower situation was shockingly poorly planned, given that this entire building is relatively new construction. I guess showers don't need benches where you can put your stuff? In the women's locker room, people had pulled chairs over into the shower area to "solve" this problem, but it wasn't great. 2. For anyone who's uncomfortable in a public locker room for any particular reason (I can think of several), there are very few (only two) private shower/locker rooms available relative to my home YMCA, and they're labeled with rather unfriendly signs saying that you shouldn't use them unless you're a family or a disabled person.

Great location, great facility, and great people. Something for everyone here. Machines are updated…read moreand lots of classes to consider. If guidance is needed the trainers are great. Location does have indoor pool. Underground parking is good for bad weather days. Brenda is wonderful.

Super nice waiting area and as a plus it's also got a tumbling gym so I'm sure you can get 2 kids busy if you have them! I also love how they make it easy to make up classes if you miss one with other options. The instructors are friendly and the ratio of kids to teachers is always reasonable. All in all a good spot to send your kiddos for some swim lessons!

Pick somewhere else! Enrolled our kids here for 10 months so they could learn swim safety and not…read morejust drown in a pool. After month 4 we wondered why they didn't move up a level, were reassured it was normal, so we waited more months, still no testing to even see if they were ready. Then the instructors kept changing and we realized they were teaching our kids the same stuff they learned on day one every time they changed instructors for the class. Turns out they "weren't keeping track" of what the kids knew and after 10 months and $3,500, our kids still can't tread water on their own and were never tested to move up to level 2. They told us the kids "lacked confidence in the skills" when they've had 20 hours of swim time now and just weren't even taught the basics of basics here. They only let you unenroll via text that they ignore you on and then demand 30 days to unenroll you which is another $340. This place is a mess of mismanagement and poor safety. After 10 months my kids should know something.

Parking was a little different since we parked across the street, but it was free, which was a nice surprise. The restrooms were clean, there were snacks and drinks available, and since we weren't sure what to expect, we ate beforehand. The real magic was watching all four of my kids, ages 4 to 12, find something they genuinely loved. That doesn't happen everywhere! From arts and crafts to climbing, sliding, exploring, and creating, there was something for every personality and energy level. No one was bored. Not even for a minute. As a mom, I appreciated the clean environment, family friendly atmosphere, and free Wi-Fi. As a M.O.M.=maker of memories maker, I loved seeing my kids laugh, play, and discover new things together. If you're looking for a place where kids can burn energy, spark creativity, and make memories, Spark is absolutely worth the visit. We'll definitely be back!

There is an area for creativity, a piano, a huge playground that is about 2 stories high. The slide is fast so be careful but my grandson loved it and it was certainly his pace.
