Renovation Project

Building Towards Betterment

The Farmers Branch Community Recreation Center is excited to announce that we will soon begin to upgrade and enhance our facility. We are always striving to provide the best service to our patrons through our customer service and maintaining a clean and up-to-date facility. This is the first major facelift our Rec Center has received since we opened back in 2004.

The project is very new and also will be occurring during a time where we must maintain social distancing guidelines. Once Governor Abbott approves gyms to be open at 75 percent, we will be reopening our second floor for fitness only. The showers and locker rooms will remain closed. There will be some changes to how we will operate to help maintain social distancing and will update you as we develop better ways to keep safe and maintain our high quality of service. In the meantime, enjoy viewing what you have to look forward to!
