The Activity Center is a privately owned business venture owned and operated by Warren "Ralph" Sparks. It is not a city, county, state, school district, or public venue or event-hosting facility.

Images, renderings, plans, recognition walls, sponsorship previews, and descriptions on this website may be conceptual and are provided for illustration purposes only. They do not guarantee specific features, timelines, availability, placement, or outcomes.

We reserve the right to deny access, cancel or decline event requests, or require additional conditions when necessary to protect the property, the neighborhood, visitors, and operations.

Event requests are reviewed case-by-case. Submitting a request does not guarantee availability or approval. We may request additional details (layout, attendance, parking plan, security plan, vendors, and insurance) before confirming.

Approved events may require a separate written agreement, deposit, setup/cleanup windows, and compliance with safety, noise, and neighborhood limitations.

We maintain basic security features appropriate to the site (such as fencing and cameras). For larger events, additional customer-provided security is advised and may be required when we determine an event size, activity, or timing is too large for the area.

Security requirements may include staffing, traffic control, parking attendants, and other measures depending on the event.

The Activity Center is located in a community neighborhood. No street parking is allowed for Activity Center events. Vehicles parked on the street may be towed at the owner’s expense.

Event organizers are responsible for communicating parking instructions and ensuring attendees follow all parking rules.

By entering or using the property (including for events, activities, tours, or recreation), you acknowledge and accept that all activities involve inherent risks. You are responsible for your own safety and the safety of your party, including minors.

• Unlawful activity, trespassing into restricted areas, or interference with security measures
• Damage, alteration, or removal of property, signage, fencing, or equipment
• Disruptive or unsafe behavior, including harassment or threatening conduct
• Unauthorized commercial activity, solicitation, or filming/recording where restricted
