Abilene parks staff outline programs, memberships as new recreation centers open
Summary
Parks staff reported the new rec centers are open, described hours and membership rules, and listed programming such as yoga, open play basketball, pickleball and special events for people with disabilities.
Assistant Director Chris Gibson (speaker 8) told the board the city's two new recreation centers are open and that membership is free for residents while nonresidents may purchase an annual family membership for $30 or a $5 daily guest pass. "The membership is free for residents," Gibson said, adding that library and rec center memberships are separate accounts.
Gibson described programming and registration: yoga (drop-in and multi-class options), zine-making classes, open play basketball times on Mondays, Thursdays and Saturdays, volleyball, pickleball and upcoming badminton programming. He encouraged residents to register online at the city's recreation site and said staff will assist with sign-ups at the centers.
