Worthington Community Center

I won’t be coming back to this location, due only to moving to the other side of Columbus. Unfortunate, because there’s so much here.
The inside is amazing, first of all. While I never became a member, I wish I would’ve.
This is the best place to take your recycle in Worthington. It’s two large red dumpsters by the side building they use for their landscaping procedures. All of the recycle can be put together, and they take what Local Waste Services accepts for recyclables.

I am not a member here, but have been here for a few of the family fun nights. My kids and I always have a great time. The pool is clean, well laid out and full of fun activities. The rest of the facility pretty much follows suit. As far as I have ever interacted with the staff, they have all been friendly and inviting even to non-​members. If I ever move to Worthington, I will sign up here right away.

I held a work event here and it was excellent. Staff was super helpful (even when we forgot plates, they gave us some they had in their staff room. How did I forget the plates?!). The downstairs is super nice and spacious and even has some things to keep kids and teens busy if they don’t want to work out or go to the pool (their game room is super nice-​arcade games, air hockey, more than I am forgetting at this time). We used one of their meeting rooms which was what I would consider a classy meeting room. Seriously, I felt more grown up just being in it and doing official things.
Also, the pool! They have a great indoor pool complete with lazy river and lanes. It’s made me happy on more than one occasion in the winter when I have the winter blahs.

This place is the «whip». I love it so much that I pay the «nonresident» fee to put my darling daughter in classes there. It’s really a bargain for some of the classes that they offer, and she has had a blast at all of them. So far, we have done the tumbling class, messy art, and ballerina enchantment. We are sure to do many more classes in the future too!
In addition, there is a great play ground here for kids to play at before and after classes. She loves it, and has made lots of friend on this play ground. I have even enjoyed goofing around on the slides and ramps with her!
Loads of kiddo fun!!!

Really nice facility with good fitness classes. Cheaper than a gym if you live in Worthington. Very family-​friendly

The Worthington Community Center is five stars as far as community centers go! It is owned and operated by the city of Worthington’s Parks and Recreation department. The facility is a sprawling 72,000 square feet and offers an extensive list of fitness, art and self-​enrichment programs.
If you live in the Worthington area and are looking to get into shape, the Community Center maintains two gyms, an indoor pool, an indoor track and is open from the wee hours of the morning until 9 PM. They also offer childcare services (inhouse), so there’s no excuse!
If you prefer organized sports, there’s a variety of aquatic and fitness classes, as well as softball, golf, tennis, basketball and badmitten leagues for both adults and youth in which to get involved.
The Worthington Community Center also houses an art studio, pottery studio and public meeting rooms, which can be reserved in advance.
Annual memberships are really quite affordable and non-​resident rates do not cost much more than resident rates, so if you work in the area, this could be a convenient place to join the gym. Passes range from from $ 220 to $ 500 for the year, depending on your residential status and the number of family members using the pass.
