It is a great opportunity to invite a friend to come with you as well. It is a great time to join because everyone will start out fresh. New opportunities to get acquainted and make new friends.

If you ever have questions about our center, membership, etc… I am here and happy to help! Please call me at (317) 398-0127 anytime.
As summer weather approaches I feel that I need to remind you all to take good care of yourself. Wear sunscreen when outdoors. Drink plenty of water. Take a break when working in the yard or garden. I can’t think of a better way to spend a gorgeous summer day – than with a nice glass of lemonade in the shade.
Things are looking up!!!!
