There's plenty of parking leading up to the huge playground and lots of places to sit and watch your little ones. It was clean and looked safe with tons of different levels to explore. Beyond the jungle gym is a baseball diamond and a large amount of Greenspace to hangout. Not a lot of shade but we did find a nice spot down the hill to paint pumpkins. The grass was neatly mowed and kept up well! Bonus points for trash cans spread throughout the playground. Highly recommend! I may even bring my own kiddo if we are ever in the area!

The pool was heated to a comfortably warm temperature. They have both men's, women's, and family locker rooms. The family locker room was great because they had individual rooms that you could go in and fully close the door. My toddler loved the little slide, the water feature, and the lazy river. This was a fantastic activity on a cold day!

I feel it allows kids to try something/sport they may want to pursue as a lifelong dream but wouldn't know where to start.

Who else misses when the middle school mascot was a wildcat?

This rec center is an absolute beast. As someone who loves to work out at recreation centers and…read morehas been to many throughout her life, this one takes the cake as one of the cleanest, most modern, and largest. It has an indoor fitness pool, an outdoor pool (looks like mostly designed for families with kids), an ice skating rink, a huge weight lifting and cardio machine area, multiple group fitness rooms, and a full-sized basketball court (that they use temporary drapes to turn into multiple courts for pickelball or pick-up basketball). There's probably more I'm missing. I've never actually walked through the entire place. They have a ton of community and fitness programming for the area. From 8 to noon then 4 to 9 most evenings, they have different fitness classes going on. They aren't just your basics either. They have enough TRX bands to support TRX classes or some of their strength-based classes use workout areas they've had installed. They have lots of spinning bikes and classes the support them. I've never actually encountered any machine or part of the fitness center that didn't work. Everything is well-maintained, and I've never even encountered an empty cleaning spray bottle before. The biggest "issue" I've had is when the water tastes a bit off because the red-light says the filter needs to be replaced on the water fountain. Prices aren't cheap, but they aren't expensive either. When a yoga class elsewhere will cost me $40, it's only $11 here at Kettering. If you get one of their multi-class passes or a membership, it's even cheaper on a per-class basis. They have lots of kids camps and kids activities including some homeschooling group play classes and more. I haven't paid much attention to the kid things, but I know they have some! Great spread of bodies and ages here too. You'll mostly see older adults, and it's really refreshing to see a ton of different types of people instead of the college-aged adults. Everyone here is super friendly, and it's clear a lot of the community uses this place as a great place to see and hang out with friends while staying active. Huge parking lot, but if there's a lot going on (like a kid's hockey meet), there have been a few times I've been unable to find a single parking spot in this beast of a parking lot. Bathrooms are clean too.

During our visit the majority of the equipment was in good working order. Parts of the playground were flooded due to recent rains. There were still plenty of areas to play on. Some spinning thing kept my middle child entertained while the older one was part of the clean up. We came to do a trash clean up, and boy did we have our work cut out for us. We cleaned what we could, but had to leave due to poor weather. Masks, cigarette butts, and beer bottles/cans were the items we found the most of. There was plenty of other trash too. Most of it was along the paved paths, and the edges of the playground.

I have a fitness membership-it's $25 for a CRC membership (for the YEAR!) which gets you into the center for open gyms and classes (Zumba, Yoga, Aerobics) and it's an extra $70/year (or $20/quarter) to use the fitness room. It doesn't get much better. The staff are friendly and will give you free reign of the place to walk around and check things out before you commit. It is a pretty basic place-two treadmills, three ellipticals, free weights, and a full assortment of weight machines. The cardio equipment works fine, but has been around awhile. The crowd is very diverse and friendly, and often rather scarce, but in the winter time and can get a bit crowded. They do also have a bathroom with a shower room and lockers. I've never used them, but wouldn't be afraid to. The hours are reasonable at 6:30-9 during the week-I can get in before or after work, but Saturdays could be better (9-noon). Parking is off-street and plentiful.
