A few years ago we introduced this program for two sports - Flag Football and Baseball. This year we have added Basketball. Tiny Tots is a program through the Start Smart Program created by the National Alliance for Youth Sports. It is a step-by-step approach that builds confidence and self-esteem, as well as making sports fun for children ages 3-6.
Our Leisure Guide explains most of our ongoing Senior Programs, but the best way to find out what is going on in our Senior Department is to drop by the Phil Hudson Room on the north end of the Community Center to find out first hand what we have to offer local seniors. A lunch program, classes, and a variety of trips, including casino trips and cruises are planned on a regular basis.
If you or your group/organization are planning a large event, asking for street closure or other types of encroachments onto city property, you might need to apply for a Special Event Permit. Call the Community Services Office to see if your event qualifies as a Special Event. Our staff will be happy to help you with this process. Call us if you have any questions.
The City has facilities for every occasion. Call us for more information on use of the Community Center. We have rooms in a variety of sizes for wedding receptions, birthday parties, baby showers, classes, and meetings. A brief overview of fees and other information can be reviewed in our Facility Rental Brochure. Call our reservation specialist, Jessica Esquibel (559-637-4203) or jessica.esquibel@reedley.ca.gov to check on availability. If you haven't been in the California Room recently, it has had a total makeover - new curtains, paint, soundboards, sound system, and flooring. It no longer looks like a gym. Stop by for a look. You can also check us out on Facebook for more pictures and information.
