Send an email to RJ Kroc if you see someone going above and beyond for our guests! Here are some examples observed recently:
- A member brought in her grandkids to enjoy Spring Break activities and mentioned that the kids normally aren’t very active. She was happy to see that Brent was able to keep them engaged and active with basketball and games in the gym.
- Vicky, Lesley, Jon, and Paul assisted a member who was injured in the pool.
- Amber and Bri on the fitness floor provided unscheduled Teen Fit Permit classes to new teen members so they could use the fitness floor and not have to wait until next week to take the class.
Here are some of the upcoming events and groups at the Kroc Center:
