Yeah the knife can be used from time to time but if you've got a bunch of screws, you're better off with the right tool. Originally my capability was like the knife as screwdriver- specifically I had poor balance, reduced range of motion to be able to get into a good position, and lots of aches and pains after a round. Today I'm able to turn my body and make a reasonably good shot. There's little to zero pain and discomfort after a full day. The team has made the physical aspects of golf easier and I'm playing--and enjoying-- the game more. As an older golfer approaching 70 I'm a strong proponent of their program. It's been a real transformation!

The course is well maintained and the bonus for us was having a practice green with three holes - our granddaughter loved trying it out before we got to the first "official " one. At hole eight, she declared she had to go to the bathroom- uh oh - we had to walk to the clubhouse, a bit far but the restroom was clean. Luckily we were able to slip back in and finish our game. Our Granddaughter loved it!

I've been to some really strict golf courses out here in CA but this is the first time I've heard of a golf course canceling your tee time with no explanation. Wow Norwalk, Iowa, what a trash place you have.

Is always in great shape and is a very fair and fun to play course. Conditions and layout are comparable to Legends Club and Troy Burne in the metro. Green fees are affordable ... Around $50-$60 ... and a great value in my opinion. Also feels like the staff cares you are there and appreciative big the biz. Definitely a must play if you are in the area or passing through

The driver was in resalable condition and undamaged. Another cashier had told me that I could return it anytime within 60 days if I didn't like it. Unfortunately, the store did not have the right fitter, so I was unable to find the correct golf driver for me. I don't understand why I was only refunded the trade-in price. I purchased the driver from the Des Moines, Iowa Golf Galaxy store, and the manager, Collin, handled my return. No one explained the return policy to me in detail. If the cashier or a salesperson had provided me with more information, I could have made a more informed decision. I believe that I should be refunded the full amount of $631.50. I was very disappointed with my experience and ended up going to Dick's Sporting Goods to use the gift card I received. their manners to coustomer is not kind and they act like big king here.

The family center here offers kids programming with arts, Spanish lessons, gymnastics, and other organized activites. Not just kids running around all over the place in a daycare which makes me feel excited to bring my kids. There are also countless preschool lessons, swim lessons, a warm pool with slide, water fountain and zero entry. There are numerous free classes for the grown ups included with membership from yoga to kickboxing, weight training, Pilates, spin, anything you can think of! Multiple racquet ball courts, a track, a court gym with drop in hours for pick up games and plenty of exercise equipment and weights makes this a top of the line gym with the added focus on the family.

This was my first time at the pools here and I came early Sunday morning for water walking in the lazy river. I was surprised the current was on because it looked like people were mostly hopping along with the current. But after I got in, I could tell this would be a fun workout. And after I walked for about 90 minutes, my legs were like jelly getting used to land again and my back was a little sore. Fun activity to do with a friend so I will be back!

Thats the complete opposite of what float things do! I asked to speak to a manager and asked where on their "pool rules" does it states that. They had no answer. I also said that we have been to other pools and jumped off the diving boards with float things on and their only response was "well sorry that's just our rule here" and my response was where does it say anything about that. Today was the WORST! Within 5 minutes of being there we got yelled at for snorkels. Not a big deal we put them away. Then, my husband got yelled at for wearing his sunglasses down the slide at age 35. Ridiculous! Then, going around the lazy river my son wanted to get out and hopped out of his tube.. instead of lifting him out of the water immediately we waited we walked to the exit and got yelled at for getting off the tube even though he was tall enough to be in the area. The worst part was my nephew jumped in to the 3ft 10in area and a lifeguard jumped in afterwards. The manage had to come scold us for doing absolutely NOTHING. We did nothing wrong. The lifeguard said she thought he was "too little" and he made her nervous so she jumped in. Funny thing was the same lifeguard DID NOT jump in nor 2 others to actually save a little boy who was struggling and I was the one to swoop in and save him. The manage had to tell me that the lifeguards are trained and that I need to trust them in which I said okay thank you I will be with my nephew and he is actually plenty tall to be in the area... she continued to preach at me in a very demeaning way. I said the matter did not need to be discussed more and walked away knowing that my nephew was in tears because of how they were treating us. Instead of respecting me she went to all her 17 year old friends and talked about me. My nephew sat for over an hour SCARED to get in the water because of how awful we were treated. We will NEVER go back and I advice you DO NOT go to Clive Aquatic Center - unless you want to get yelled at by a bunch of teenagers.
