If you’d like to use the Wi-Fi inside the Center, you can reserve a time slot for your family.
Available slots are Monday and Wednesday
8:30am to 10am,10:30 am to 12 pm,1pm to 2:30pm, 3pm to 4:30pm.
To reserve one of these time slots, please call (434) 466-3389 or email [email protected].
COVID safety precautions will be utilized inside the building, including temperature checks, screening questions, and face coverings.
