The City of Merriam is excited to open our new 66,000-square-foot community center!

With easy access from I-35, free parking, no contracts or cancellation penalties, the Merriam Community Center is just right for your fitness and family fun. 

Merriam City Council worked hard to make sure our membership rates are comparable to neighboring cities.

Charter Memberships Good Through Labor Day 2021

Charter members can access the building beginning July 20 and will receive $10 MCC bucks to use for child watch or concession cart items, invites to special events, free guest passes, free fitness evaluation, and a free beach bag, towel, and key chain!
