“Had my son's 9th birthday party here and it was amazing! The staff was so patient and helpful to the kids. Everyone had a great time and it was so easy to host! Highly reccomend!”
“I was not sure about joining a chamber and then I met Drew at The Edge Fitness. He told me about all the great things the Chamber had to offer. Anytime I have a question Drew is always there to answer it. He has made events fun and is always welcoming. I look forward to attending more events!”
“It was a great drive from Chicago. In addition, there was a great tour, a tack shop that has a wide variety of items ( I do not know if they sell Westernsaddles) and they teach you about the horses and maintenance necessary to farm and horses. They do great work taking in horses from owners who can no longer care for them or horses who are pr have been neglected or abused. They even had a blind horse, and another horse, who is her " seeing eye," guide animal.”
“What a great organization! I volunteer there and it is so well run! They are supported by so many generous local donors who make sure there are a wide variety of items to pick from. It is a joy to spend time there!”
“Our 102 year old father came to Fair Oaks after he'd fallen, broken his femur. We experienced patience, care, and expertise throughout our stay. It was such a confusing time for all but the staff always took time to answer our many questions and address our worries. Nurses, nursing assistants, and especially the PTs were tender, knowledgeable....and sometimes provided us all with much needed laughs. Congratulations to all of you who make Fair Oaks such a positive place in such a hard time. Thank you all, from the bottom of my heart.”
“Everyone here is very, very kind. I am beyond grateful . They never make you feel less than. They provide to the community with love in their hearts. Sometimes they have to deal with greedy people but they continue to do what they are doing. I am forever thankful for them for helping my family during hard tines. I also want to add they have the most beautiful gardens and they grow everything you can think of! They work super hard on their gardens and they even share their gorgeous flowers they have picked. It always made my day seeing their gardens and what they have freshly picked!♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️♦️ i will say the number system is really bad. They changed it where someone comes out and gives numbers but they don't come out often. And you're expected to know who's in front of who but everyone is in there cars. It gives me great anxiety going to get my number from them and see other pepple also going and then us having to figure out who was next. A lot of people arent honest and take advantage of people that are soft spoken or that won't confront anyone. Or others that have come in after, go and get a volunteer to come out and they try getting a number before the people that are waiting paitently outside. So the person outside has to go quickly and be like actually i was here first. I personally cant do that and not everyone will do that so it's unfair and we get skipped. Ive seen people who got there after someone, get a number before the person that showed up first, many times. It has been this way for maybe a month or more and I was hoping by now they'd have a new system. It's basically first come first serve which is fine but people can get greedy. I am not sure anything to suggest to help this. Maybe appointments with time slots? I don't know but I really hope this isn't the permanent system.”
“This place is so amazing for kiddos! We worked with Beth and I cannot recommend the whole facility more. The horses are amazing with the integration and therapies offered. They are knowledgeable and helpful in also recommending how we can further progress at home. So appreciative of Dream Riders!!”
“Horizons for the Blind offers many services and products for both large-print and braille users. I was impressed by their selection for both individuals and companies.”
“Where do I start! FSA does an amazing job at working with all family's and helping them in their current need. The staff are all super supportive and do their job with excellence!”
“Thank you Deb & Purrfect Cat Rescue for all that you do & for helping me rehome two elder cats. I can't express enough how grateful & blessed I feel to have had your assistance. I can imagine that finding homes for elder cats is no easy task. I would've kept them myself, but I already have five. I was heartbroken & full of anxiety at the thought of taking them to a shelter. Today though, my worries have vanished and I know these two furr babies are going to a great home where they'll be loved and treated like little queens. Thank you so much!! Words could never express how truly grateful I am!!”
“Our family enjoys being at the sports club, and we couldn't be happier! One of our first impressions was how clean and well-maintained it is here. It's reassuring to see that the place where you spend your time is kept in such perfect order.We attend the club together with our daughter, and for us, it's not just a way to stay fit, but also an important step in realizing her goals in the swimming pool. We appreciate the family-like atmosphere that prevails here. In the club, we feel like part of a large family, where everyone supports each other and strives to achieve their athletic goals.However, sometimes the family pool gets crowded, especially during peak hours. We think it would be a great idea to organize circular movement on the swimming lanes to enhance the swimming experience and reduce overcrowding.We are grateful to the sports club for the excellent service and the opportunity to engage in sports in such a wonderful atmosphere. We are confident that our family will continue to enjoy our time here and recommend the club to anyone looking for a great place to exercise and relax.”
“I worked here as a medical case manager from 2014-2020; at the time we primarily served the HIV+ population here, helping those who need access to healthcare & medication. We also had STI testing, case management, behavioral health services, & referrals to local dental offices. Open Door also went to local community events as part of outreach & prevention. We had people here who truly cared about the patients & clients who came to our clinic. I left in mid-2020 due to change in management that sadly made the clinic a toxic environment to work in. I hope they have turned things around since then for staff & clients' sake.”
“This location is decent. The staff is younger and friendly. They usually have decent selection of secondhand items. They offered military discount on Mondays & I believe senior discount on a certain day too. They always offer a color of the week for 50% off as well. The parking lot sucks but just be aware when driving in. The donation shares the same entrance and exit which can make it tricky for people leaving the actual store.”
