A small fee is required.” Freeman also highlights some of the many other community-building programs, like the facility's youth mentoring, Senior Cornhole on Tuesdays and basketball tournaments.

Visiting South End and LoSo for shops and restaurants
There are convenience stores and small shops like Family Dollar along West Boulevard, so most residents drive or take the bus to shop and dine out in areas closer to Uptown. “You’re going to have to go more into South End to find grocery stores,” Weinberg says. You might get groceries at the Walmart on Wilkinson Boulevard or the Harris Teeter on South Boulevard. South End and LoSo are full of breweries, popular restaurants and occasional clothing stores. Out of the many restaurant options, places like Yume Ramen Sushi & Bar and Bang Bang Burgers are among the standouts.
