This gym is truly the largest and top notch gym out there. This gym sports 1000 pieces of equipment which makes it convenient to workout cause you always have a choice of your favorite machines. I have been to such a large and super nice gym. This is a two story gym with about 20 or 30 tennis courts including several indoor tennis courts with several indoor racket ball courts. It also possesses several indoor basketball courts as well as a boxing ring and three pools. Not to mention the owner was a mr America and is one of the best human beings I have ever met. He is in his 70’s and still opens his own gym at 3 am every morning. He is a man of great faith and it shows in his love and generosity. If you are passing through the area and are looking for a great gym that sells day passes this is the place for you. Truly an awesome gym!!!!!!

We were led to grounds of St John’s Cathedral in our downtown Lafayette scavenger hunt. We happened to see the cathedral the day before Easter. Unbelievably beautiful!

My last visit was 50years ago, in town for a high school reunion, it’s an education to see this building again and the restoration at hand. Outside, time seems to stand still, but on the inside there is much going on. This is a must see to understand the Lafayette experience and remember the past. Take the tour, fun.

Downtown Lafayette so it's within walking distance of parking and other places to visit. Admission prices are reasonable, staff is very friendly and helpful. Lot's of hands on activities and interesting exhibits. Loved the Acadiana 360 virtual reality experience and the big screen that put you in the picture (forgot what the exhibit was called). A must do when in downtown Lafayette.

We stopped in with the kids one day, there was plenty to do for both even with a pretty big age gap between them. Price is reasonable, and the staff is great!
