First 5 – Week of October 3, 2022

DAY PASSES RETURN: Yes, it’s true! Starting today (Monday 10/3), we are running a ‘soft launch’ of day pass sales. Information will be updated on our website and other locations, but we will not be promoting the sales publicly during the month of October while we work out kinks in the process. Day passes will be $12 for ages 12+, and $8 for 11 and under. Watch for more information and FAQs

LES MILLS LAUNCH PARTY: Join us on Saturday, October 15th from 9-11am as we launch new releases of Body Pump and Body Combat, and showcase other Les Mills classes such as Les Mills Grit, Sprint, and Core. Everyone who attends will be entered to win a door prize.

YOUNG ADULT HUB: Our Young Adult Hub meetings are back! Every Wednesday from 4:30-7:3pm, we’ll gather in the Green Room for dinner, devotions, and fellowship. These gatherings are free and open to the community. Kroc Center members and non-members are welcome! Child care is also available by reservation only. 

WEEKLY DEVOTIONS: You are invited to join us every Tuesday morning at 9am for a 15-minute time of devotion and fellowship. We’ll meet under the stairs next to the Membership Office. It isn’t often when we can lay down our burdens and come together as a team. This is one of those times, each week.

MONSTER MASH: Halloween will be here soon and we’re getting excited  for the return of our annual Monster Mash event, scheduled for Friday, October 28 from 5–7 PM. If you have an organization you would like to invite to participate, please contact Jon Shaner for a sponsorship form. Help us spread the word by sharing the event on social media. Check it out here.

Current openings include: Welcome Desk Lead; Pool Supervisor; Group Exercise Instructor; Fitness Attendant; Personal Trainer; Art Instructor; Swim Instructor; Lifeguard.
