C.V. Starr Community Center

"In my opinion this place should NOT be called a community center. The costs of memberships are so high as to exclude even those who would be classified as middle class. Although even if the membership rates were more reasonable there are not any fitness classes or open swims available after 5 pm. So the only folks in the community who can utilize the facility are retired or independently wealthy. I remind the powers that be that a "community" includes a variety of people with a diverse socioeconomic portfolio and diverse work schedules. It is nice to have the lessons and swim meets for the kids in the community. But do they have to have the entire pool area every week night to the exclusion of all the other major demographics of people in Fort Bragg? Also, what is with the herding of people during splash/slide/swim? Every person there has to be doing the exact same activity all together until that activity closes and the next one begins and then everyone has to go do that activity. That to me is absurd! I thought if I could I understand the thinking behind that decision it would help because I just don't get it."

"This facility has us wanting to move to Fort Bragg. The facility was so clean with so many options of activities. Yoga was fantastic, the Wednesday pool class with Cathy was extraordinary, the pool was clean and so huge, and I loved the river which I had never seen before The bathrooms were exquisite with so many hot showers and clean. I loved the swimsuit dryer. The gym had enough varied equipment to get a good work out."

"Visited the CV Starr center for a birthday and am always impressed by the magnificence of the entire project especially in light of where it is located. It’s a great place for parties, to swim and work out. They also offer classes in many different areas. It’s part of the local Rec district and one of the eight man made wonders to visit on the Mendocino Coast."

"Exceptional! Fantastic! Held a birthday party there for my 10 year old grandson. Used their party room. Best party ever. Brought in pizza from Round Table. 3 hours of swimming, diving, water slide and moving river fun. Clean, great staff, observant life guards etc. Can't say enough. Prices were fair"

"Great Facility for Family Fun and for Individualized workouts! No matter the weather the C.V. Starr is a place to be physically active! This place has a two giant swimming pools, one for leisure, and one for competitive/exercise. It also has a water slide and a lazy river! & that's not all! It also has three different workout rooms two for classes (like zumba, yoga, spin, etc...) and another one large room containing exercise machines and other equipment. This place also has two more event rooms that can be combined for large meetings or parties or can be separated for smaller parties like birthday parties. Each room when used for birthday parties comes with free entrance to swimming for your guests! Oh and I almost forgot, the C.V. Starr also has creative classes like; tapestry arts, robotics, digital media fun, gymnastics, music, and much more... Individuals looking for a workout, to learn something new, to connect with others, or for aquatic fun will love the C.V. Starr community Center."
