The soft-opening took place on Saturday, July 1, 2023 and the facility is now open 7-days a week.
The 128,297 Mentor Community Recreation Center [MCRC] is one of the largest facilities of its kind in Northeast Ohio and includes an indoor soccer field, basketball, tennis, racquetball, and pickleball courts, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, cardiovascular and weight training areas, group exercise rooms, a childcare room, and other amenities.
The City of Mentor purchased the Heisley Racquet & Fitness Club in December 2021 to fulfill a long-standing goal of the city to provide flexible indoor space to expand and enhance health, wellness, and recreational opportunities for residents of all ages. The 50-year-old facility underwent a transformative renovation to bring it to 21st century standards including the addition of all new equipment.
Family and individual annual membership plans are available for both residents and non-residents. Memberships can be paid in full or through a payment plan. Single-day admission is available for $10.00 per person.
Members can enjoy popular programs and activities including weight training, basketball, racquetball, pickleball, soccer, and tennis. New additions include two new golf simulators, an open concept fitness center, two new basketball courts, an outdoor playground, and more!
