Farmers Branch Community Recreation Center

Newly Renovated Rec Center Now Open

After several months of anticipation, the Farmers Branch Community Recreation Center is excited to announce the completion of its first-floor renovation. Among the upgrades, the Rec Center now has a 9,100 square foot fitness area filled with industry-leading equipment from CommFit and TechnoGym.

The fitness area includes a 765 square foot indoor turf area. Improvements were also made to the Magnolia and Community Rooms including updates to flooring, finishes, and AC equipment. These rooms are great options for party and meeting rentals.

The updated Kids Zone is now 1,100 square feet of bright and colorful play structures and a decorative mural. Best of all, the Kids Zone is a safe and supervised play place for children ages six months to seven years to be dropped off while parents are working out at the Recreation or Aquatics Centers. Appointments are required, and it is only $2 per hour.

Curious to check out the new additions? New patrons can try the Rec Center for FREE for one week. Call us for more details!

Face Mask Required at all City Facilities

During the March 16 meeting and after extensive debate, the City Council directed staff to reimplement the policy requirement for face masks or face coverings for customers visiting any City facility. This requirement will stay in place until June 30, at which point Council will review the policy again.

It is important to note that the state remains a long way from herd immunity and most health experts warn that now is not the time to reduce or curtail our standard COVID-19 protocols.

The City has continued to require employees to wear masks when at work and when serving the public with frequent face-to-face encounters.
