multiple people yelled at a thirteen year old boy for "hitting the ball two hard". A follow up on…read morethat was there was another girl on that boys team that could hit just as hard as he could but had no repercussion. this felt very targeted towards the boy on the team. I hope gardener realizes that there are boys who play volleyball that are trying to have fun for a cheap price. maybe instead of yelling at a THIRTEEN YEAR OLD. They could start a men's recreational volleyball league. Not to mention the amount of stress that could have been put on the coaches. Getting called at a royals baseball game With there child that was another male on the team. Gardener recreational center needs to seriously. Do something for the male gender that plays volleyball. There are club teams in the recreation league that no one even bats an eye for but when it comes to a 13 year old boy playing volleyball. you have to change the rules twice because "it's not safe." gardener you have issues.

Let me just say we were duped!!!!!!! I purchased a Groupon for this place and what a freaking…read moremistake and waste of money this was! I did some research before I bought the Groupon of course but I guess you can't go off their facebook page. All those comments saying they had such a great time must be from friends and family because this place was a total joke!! When you pull up you don't even see the pumpkin patch. It's tucked way back away so you can't see it. They have a tractor that takes you to the pumpkin patch. We got "robbed" half way through our tractor ride to the "patch" which was kinda silly and their fake gun shots scared over half the kids. They handed out candy to each child on the tractor ride. While we were sitting there waiting for the "robbers" to finish, we noticed their "corn maze". We looked at each and said no this can't be the corn maze but oh it was. Their "corn maze" was about 2 feet tall, if that and so thin. Further into the ride to the "patch" we see about 4 bouncey houses/slides and 3 "houses". The houses were made out of wood and it's not a house you can run through, it's just the face of the house that looks like it was slapped together in about an hour. They had 3 pink baby tricycles in some dirt. Need I say more? Their "petting zoo" consisted of 2 goats. Their "pumpkin patch" was a small field that was filled with pumpkins that were PLACED in the field. The pumpkins were NOT grown anywhere in the fields. They also had a few potted plants/flowers for sale but we didn't stop to look. With the groupon offer we each got a hot dog, bag of chips, pop, and a small pumpkin. That's what drew me to the Groupon deal. We had a group of 10 so you can imagine the cost for going to a pumpkin patch or anything for that matter. Their food sales consisted of hot dogs, burgers, chips, pop, and water. Oh I saw some chocolate dipped apples but I heard them tell someone $4 and I passed since everything else was horrible and didn't want to waste more money at that place. I really think that the owners thought to themselves, hey we have some land lets make a pumpkin patch. I don't think they put any kind of thought into it and just slapped together what they could find. I really wanted to ask for a refund but we just got our free pumpkins and left. The kids were all disappointed of course so we ended up down the road at KC Pumpkin Patch where they had a blast!!!! I never wish for a local business to fail but this place will do it on it's own unfortunately. If they had given some great thought and effort into this place they might have had a great place. Yes I know I had a lot of quotes but if you ever go to this place you will understand why I used so many quotes!!! Have a Happy Halloween everyone!
