NOTE: Due to RJ being out of the office and the holiday next week, this edition is designed to help you prepare for the next two weeks.
Outdoor Court Resurfacing: The outdoor basketball courts will be closed for resurfacing from July 2-8. The resurfacing will help repair cracks and low spots, and allow us to repaint court lines. This will be posted outside the courts and at GrKrocCenter.org.
Reminder: The Kroc Center is CLOSED on Wednesday, July 4.
Saturday AM Free Outdoor Fitness – Last Chance! Since June has 5 Saturdays, it means we get a bonus outdoor fitness class! Join us for free Zumba in the Kroc amphitheater at 9am on June 30. Thanks to our instructors and all the attendees this month!
Camp Kroc is off and running! If you or anyone you know is looking to sign up for Camp Kroc this summer, make sure you don’t wait to register! Week 2 of day camp sold out, week 3 has nearly sold out, and multiple specialty camps are already full. Don’t forget about the staff discount that makes your cost $75 per week — see Jessica Pollins to register.
FREE – Family Fun & Fitness! July brings the return of our Family Fun & Fitness nights. Each evening starts with a family-friendly fitness class in the amphitheater, followed by open slip & slide time, face painting, and other fun on the outdoor campus. Because of the July 4th holiday, the first night will be Wednesday, July 11, with events also on July 18 and 25. Tell your friends!
Send an email to RJ Kroc if you see someone going above and beyond for our guests! Here are some examples from this week:
- Thank you to everyone who helped with the big events on Thursday and Saturday last week, including the judo tournament, world’s largest swim lesson, and Feed the Children distribution.
- “Laura and Tabi did a great job enforcing our guidelines with parents who were leaving their kids in the pool area unattended. They politely told them the reason why we have this guideline and prevented it from escalating further.”
