Active Play

You shouldn’t have to choose between getting your exercise and ensuring your child gets theirs, too. Our Kids' Zone attendants provide plenty of activities, games and crafts to get kids moving, playing and making new friends. Let us wear them out while you work out.

Safe Supervision

Our Kids' Zone attendants are CPR/AED certified, and must pass a background check before they’re hired. We take pride in giving every kid the focused care they need, and if we really do need to reach you, we can easily page you in the club.
