Lewisburg Recreation Center The "Rec Center" provides entertainment for the whole family. An olympic size pool, a brand new sports complex with a full time activity coordinator, tennis courts, racquetball courts, meeting hall, and shaded picnic areas are but a few of the many city maintained facilities at this beautiful park. And at the "Rec Center" kids can enjoy the newly built Exploration Station- a place where a child's imagination can grow. A challenging and well maintained nine-hole golf course has been a local favorite for many years. Numerous charitable tournaments are held here each year for community projects that give the local golfers a chance to have great fun and at the same time help worthwhile projects.
