Best

But it could be, and that's ok! I started coming here when I was pregnant with my first son. I liked the warm pool and the atmosphere was welcoming. the lifeguards learned my name...

Worst

I called for room rental information as directed by website. I was told to call back between 6 & 9:30 a.m. I stopped by to view space and ask questions. I was only handed a rent...

Not your mother's gym 7/26/2010

But it could be, and that's ok! I started coming here when I was pregnant with my first son. I liked the warm pool and the atmosphere was welcoming. the lifeguards learned my name, and as my pregnancy progressed, we all guessed at whether I would have a boy or a girl. Now both my boys take swim lessons there (and the same lifeguards teach them how to swim), they love the kids area, my four year old has done tumbling, and I do pilates, yoga, zumba, and sometimes just read the paper while they play. the child care area doesn't have a tv- they actually play with your kids!! You won't find spin classes, but there are a good variety of classes and active people with regular bodies , young and old, doing them. No blaring tvs, no bass turned up in the background. coach earl is amazing with the children's basket ball. Adult pick up basketball, weight training classes...This place rocks! they are growing, so I see how the person who came to rent space got a little frustrated; sometimes it is a little busy at the front. it is worth a second chance. Pros: family friendly, variety of ages, community feel Cons: pool is a bit warm if you are acompetitive lap swimmer more

Waaay More Than A Fitness Center! 7/26/2010

This is an all ages facility: FREE child care with activities, children's camps and classes, experienced swim instructors, not teen-agers, zumba, pilates, yoga and aerobics classes for mothers, a full-size gym for basketball for all, and for seniors the best instructor ever who makes exercising fun. NECC is a true community center with a summer arts and crafts fair, fall festival, Halloween party for all kids, a spring flower sale,and a book club open to all members. Prices compare with lesser facilities and no contract and no initiation fee. From a three year member. Pros: Experienced staff, friendly members, no contract Cons: The lobby gets too warm. more

Check it out! 7/26/2010

NECC board, staff, volunteers and members are working hard to make the Center the most it can be. Come by and check us out and maybe you too will find it rewarding to take part. Pros: NECC is a Fitness, Wellness and Community anchor in NE PDX more

Accurate information 3/13/2009

I called for room rental information as directed by website. I was told to call back between 6 & 9:30 a.m. I stopped by to view space and ask questions. I was only handed a rental form. No other written information was available AND I could not have anyone show me the space--at that time. Frontdesk person was swamped by lengthy sign-in process for those taking classes and visitors. No one else on staff was available. Pros: Great location. Love the cute LITTLE pool . Cons: Difficult to obtain accutate rental information. more

The person that wrote a review saying that the people that go to this center are the rich, is nuts. I and my mother use this center and we are definately not rich. I like it because it is a family oriented center. People of all ages use this great place. My son played basketball when he was younger and I still enjoy watching other young kids play even though my son is all grown up. Over the past few years they have made great strides to remodel. But it is slow process depending on volunteers to get a lot of the work accomplished. I have enjoyed helping out from time to time. My mother enjoys going along on senior trips that are organized by the center. They had a great time in New York Citry. I would highly recommed this center! Pros: parking is very convienent, right across the street. Cons: it is a small center - but very personable more

User review by yabollox 1/8/2006

The North east Community center is a Historic Not for proffit Community Center That has a focus on the well being of the local Community. Its not a fashon show but a place where you will find young children thru active older adults. Familys are not just welcome but catered to with the "free" child care. With work out rooms,A gym with baketball, Vollyball,arobics,yoga,Pilates,ect .The warm pool must be one of the best kept secrets in town. The staff are friendly too. Pros: community, members, staff more
