About the Venue

Community Fieldhouse is a large city-operated indoor recreation facility at Fonner Park that includes a dedicated children's playground alongside courts, turf, batting cages, and other recreation spaces. For families, the playground makes this a practical cold-weather or windy-day option, especially if you want room for active gross-motor play without the higher price tag of a commercial entertainment center.
