Martens Center Reviews
I enjoy having an indoor track and exercise room. My son who is 10 loves Open Gym. I walk and he can shoot hoops. I do wish that the hours were more flexible with the gym because he just wants to shoot hoops all day after school. He is in school for one of the Open Gym and the night one is often closed.
April 01 · Amy CampbellGreat New Year's Eve party! Thank you.
December 31 · barb stiehlGood place lots of stuff to do ,I just don’t understand how it’s a boys & girls club but you have to be 18 to go in. What’s the point of it being a boys and girl club. At that point it’s and Men’s and Women’s club.
