My son has been taking lessons from Kevin Baez for about 3 months now and Kevin is fantastic. My son in 14 turning 15 in a few months and plays catcher for his HS baseball team. Kevin being an ex pro ball player runs a tight 30 min lesson. He works my kid hard and goes through with him a series of drills that makes him understand what he needs to do to be successful at the plate. Kevin will talk all things baseball and tell you like it is. We highly recommend him.

I went here for the haunted house. I had fun, but my daughter and her friend made sure I was in the front at all times

Friendly and accommodating, but seem to have trouble keeping the pitching machines working inside the batting cages. I go 1 or 2 times a week with my daughter and have not made it through without it breaking down at some point during the time we're there. They do come and fix it ( not always right away ) , but gets annoying when it's every week.

Great haunted house attraction in the fall. Reasonsble price, expect lines. Look for discount coupons at Halloween stores to save a few bucks. Great use of space.

Great place. Kids love it. Great for winter workouts! A little chilly for the parents who aren't moving around but it's fine, dress warm. Don't bring your coffee or food inside. We just buy inside at the concession stand when we get there.. egg sandwiches are great.
