Thomas Farm Community Center

This is a good community center managed by Rockville Parks and Recreation department. It has a nice gym and community center for basketball and other activities. They also have a room that can be rented for private events like kids birthday parties.
Parking is ample for guests and membership is very affordable :)

I love working out here. It’s totally low-​key and lacks all the other stuff I don’t need. Give me free weights, a treadmill, a bench and a cycle — I’m good.
They have tons of stuff going on but I just dig the simplicity of it… and the $!

Great playground for children. There’s a section for toddlers between the ages of 2 and 5 and another section for older kids. And the entire area is built on foam padding to cushion any slips or falls.

The staff is great. When I moved into the are they were very welcoming and took such great care of my daughter she was in the teen aftercare program. It’s a family oriented environment.

Recently opened in February, TFCC is a new and welcome addition to the Rockville Parks & Rec department. Located in the Fallsgrove area, the community center is both convenient to my office and a very affordable gym option.
The facilities (all brand new) include a big basketball court, a ping-​pong room, a fitness room with weight and cardio machines, a playground outside for the kiddies, a community garden that’s starting to grow, and a few rooms for classes/​events. And, the building was built with many sustainable features (i.e. geothermal heating, locally sourced materials, efficient water faucets)
I’ve been a fitness member for a while which means I can access the fitness room whenever the center is open. On top of that I take a weekly kickboxing class that is a lot of fun (but also kicks my butt.)
I really like that I can take as many or as few classes as I want and just pay for what I actually use through the Parks & Rec department. At typical membership gyms, you pay an inflated fee to pay for all these classes you don’t even go to and all the personal trainers to annoy you to take a training session and all the sales people to haggle with you over an extra $ 5 off the ‘joining fee’.
Here you can pay a flat rate and get access for a month, 3 months, 6 months, or a year. And there is a discount if you’re a resident of Rockville.
The community center also has community events like basketball tournaments, festivals for kids, teen movie nights, and other family oriented things that are a nice addition to the area. I haven’t tried these out as I don’t play basketball, am not a kid nor am I a teen but they look like fun family functions.
Overall I highly recommend TFCC and am very satisfied, especially since I don’t have to commit to a membership gym!
