About THE REC, Garnett Recreation Center

Goppert Wellness Center

 

The National Guard Armory has been transformed into an amazing workout center for our community thanks to the generous donations and support.

A New Look to the Weight Room
 
Throughout 2025, former Recreation Center Supervisor Ty Hedrick fundraised and collaborated with businesses, replacing old equipment, repainting the entire weight room, and bringing in new equipment and a stretching and flexibility area for the cardio room. After the project had concluded, the recreation staff received numerous compliments for the outcome of the project.
 
Special thanks to American Legion, All-In-One Pest, Home, & Lawn, Burns Dental Laboratory, East Kansas Agri-Energy, Edgecomb Flooring, the First Christian Church of Garnett, GSSB, JGP, Rotary International, TC Coaching, the Hedrick family, VFW Post 6397, and Vision Source for your contributions to our facility.

THANK YOU GOPPERT FOUNDATION!

 

The 24 hour access key card system and online registration system was made possible through a grant received by the Goppert Foundation.  

The online system allows individuals to not only access memberships to The Rec, but provides for online registration of individuals and families for all recreation programs for youth and adults, as well as reserving park facilities and campsites. 

The City of Garnett wishes to express sincere gratitude to the Goppert Foundation for making this technology possible for our patrons.
