A ribbon cutting ceremony was held recently officially re-opening Cobb County Parks, Recreation and Cultural Affairs’ fully renovated and expanded Cobb Gymnastics Center. The building was recently expanded to include 7,300 square feet with additional program area, new offices, concession area, restrooms, lobby and mezzanine spectator area. Renovation of the 30-year-old building and addition of the floor area will enable the County to expand gymnastics class offerings and competitive team opportunities.

The cost of the project was $1.4 million and was completed in about six months. The Cobb Gymnastics Center is located at 542 Fairground St., Marietta, in Larry Bell Park near the intersection of Clay Street (South 120 Loop) and Fairground Street. The Gymnastics Center offers both instructional and competitive programs throughout the year. Programs include gymnastics classes and camps, cheer gymnastics, martial arts and dance.

All levels of gymnastics instruction is offered for boys and girls ages 2 years through high school age. Hours of operation are Monday - Thursday 10 a.m. - 6:30 p.m.; Friday 10 a.m. - 5 p.m.; and Saturday 9 a.m. - 2 p.m. (on days of classes only.)
