IN 2015 all new staff was brought in and it has developed into a Recreation Center during the week for all ages: Yoga, Salsa Lessons, Ballroom Dance, Phitt Ball, and Useful Spanish during the day. Monthly Senior Luncheons with guest Speakers on the 2nd Friday of each month. Youth and Adult Activities in the evening like Karate, Dance Fitness Fun, Self Defense, Useful Spanish, Ballroom & Salsa Dancing. We also offer Facility Rentals on the weekends.
