That being said – online registration is always open! Check out all the great offerings this season. Staying active is so important – and, a great way to meet new people in the community. Engage your creative side at an art class, pump up your energy at a fitness class, twirl over for dance classes, tumble over for gymnastics classes, shoot some hoops at Sunday open gyms, kick the ball around at a soccer class, jump in the pool for swim lessons/lap swim or join an adult volleyball league (or, for the youth, an AAU volleyball league). And – brand new this Winter season – Skating classes and programs at The Barn. Fun!! So many options to stay active. We hope to see you join us for a class or league this season.
Questions? Please email us at contact_us@slpr.net or call us at 810.714.2011. Wishing everyone safe and Happy Holiday Season.
