AYSO REFEREES: AYSO is looking for referees for our spring season. This position is becoming a paid position by AYSO (details coming soon) and would be Saturday mornings starting the end of April and ending June 7th. You do not have to work every Saturday and most games end before noon. The training is free and at the Kroc Center on March 8th and lunch is provided. If you are interested, please contact Jessica Viau ASAP!
MORNING AQUATICS UPDATE: We’re implementing changes to our morning aquatics drop-in times to better serve our families and river walkers. Starting February 23rd, Tuesday River hours will be extended to 9am-12pm, while Wednesday riverwalk hours will be reduced to 9am-10am to accommodate Toddler Time.
Please familiarize yourself with these changes and be ready to communicate them to our members. If you have any questions or concerns, direct them to James or Jessica.
INCREASED BUILDING TRAFFIC: We are busier, reaching close to our pre-pandemic numbers for building entries. The lobby, fitness floor, and pool are particularly experiencing a lot of traffic. While this is great, a lot of staff have their hands tied to keep things in order. Please be ready to jump in and support where needed.
Go Team!

The Power of the tongue – James 3:2-10
Taming our tongue is one of the hardest struggles we face as Christians. According to James “no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.” He goes on to say that “Out of the same mouth comes praise and cursing. My brothers and sisters, this should not be”
Our tongue, and the words that are spoken in our lives, can be used to build people up or tear people down, it can start a fire in your heart or put it out. How we speak to one another is up to us and how our words land on others has an impact on them whether good or bad.
The next time you speak, make sure that the words you use are edifying and encouraging to whomever it is you are speaking to. We are called as believers to love others as we would love ourselves. So, when you are ready to say something slow down, take breath, and ask yourself is what I am about to say something I would want someone to say to me. James reminds us of the power of the tongue so remember to use that power to love others the same way Christ loves us.
Here are some of the upcoming events and groups at the Kroc Center:
- Saturday, March 1 – Babysitter Training 8am–4pm.
Be sure to wish a Happy Birthday to our Kroc Krew colleagues:
