Crenshaw Athletic Club is proud to provide special gymnastic and/or swimming parties for children ages 4-10 years.  Parties start in the Crenshaw Cottage located just in front of the main Crenshaw building or in a special party room located inside the main building.  Within a few minutes, instructors will come and take children into the facility for fun and games in the area of choice.   Because of the limited amount of time available, Crenshaws only schedules a few parties per weekend; two or three on Saturday and two on Sunday.  Party slots fill quickly, so don't delay, call today for more information.
