Childcare info:
From the owner, Anna Routt: “Though we do not currently provide supervised childcare children of all ages are welcome at our gym. It is a very family-friendly atmosphere. Everyone looks out for everyone else’s kiddos. We’ve had plenty of parents bring packs and plays and jumpers for little ones to play in while they work out. We have basketball goals, balls, jump ropes, hula hoops, and the such the older kids are welcome to play with. Our entire facility is fenced in, so when the weather is nice, the kids may play outside.”
