Worthington Community Center

Families exercise for free on select Fridays

---

Get the whole family up and moving during “Family Night,” a free activity held three Fridays a month at the Worthington Community Center, 345 E. Wilson Bridge Rd.

On select Fridays from 6:30-9 p.m., the community center, operated by Worthington Parks and Recreation, opens its doors to the public, allowing nonresidents an opportunity to sample the 72,000-square-foot facility and play in two gyms. During these special nights, one gym is reserved for children’s games and the other for more-athletic sports.

Family Fridays will be held March 7, 14 and 21. (Visit www.worthington.org for future dates.)

The first Friday of the month typically includes a special $3 admission to the popular pool. The pool has a shallow area with a slide, spraying nozzles and dumping buckets. It also has a whirlpool, lap lanes, lazy river and a big, twisting slide.

If you’d like a break in the action, there are arts-and-crafts projects on hand to exercise creative minds.
