The BBRC is adding a new elevator and second floor fitness expansion. The additional 1500 sq. ft. of space above the existing group fitness room will allow for a dedicated spin studio, cardio theater, functional training area, and expanded group fitness capabilities. The elevator to the second floor will be located behind the staircase adjacent to the racquetball courts and provide improved access to these upstairs amenities. Thank you for your understanding and patience during the construction, and we hope these improvements will enhance your experience here at Bob’s for many years to come!

Youth Programs Licensed Preschool
Lafayette Explorers Preschool For young children, meaningful and long lasting learning requires active thinking and experimenting to find out how things work. This is best accomplished through purposeful play facilitated by highly intentional teaching practices. THE GOALS OF OUR CURRICULUM The most important goal of our early childhood curriculum is to help children become enthusiastic learners and form friendships. This means encouraging children to be active and creative explorers who are not afraid to try out their ideas and to think their own thoughts. Our goal is to help children become independent, self-confident, inquisitive learners. We’re teaching them how to learn, not just in preschool, but also all through their lives. We’re allowing them to learn at their own pace and in the ways that are best for them.
SOCIAL:
to help children feel comfortable in school, trust their new environment, make friends, and feel they are a part of the group.
Emotional: to help children experience pride and self- confidence, develop independence and
self-control, and form a positive attitude toward life.
Cognitive: to help children become confident learners by letting them try out their own ideas and experience success, and by helping them acquire learning skills such as the ability to solve problems, ask questions, and use words to describe their ideas, observations, and feelings.
Physical: to help children increase their large and small motor skills and feel confident about
what their bodies can do.
e t t e y a f La
s r e r o l p Ex 40
The activities we plan for children, the way we organize the environment, select toys and materials, plan the daily schedule, and talk with children, are all designed to accomplish the goals of our curriculum and give the children a successful start in school.

LAFAYETTE SENIOR SERVICES IS EVOLVING! "Get to the GO!" We are now Lafayette GO! (Grown-Up Opporunities) Services and the GO Center In Lafayette, we like to think that growing older is mandatory but how we choose to be a grown-up is optional. As grown-ups, how we define ourselves is more about who each of us is than we are are a group of adults. We refuse to be defined by something as ordinary as age. We know that there is a great deal of difference between a 50 year old person and someone who is 80 or older. Our older participants went through World War II and sacrificed a great deal to see progress and prosperity. Those born after World War II grew up during a general time of opportunity and wellbeing thus, have different ideas than the earlier generation. We serve them both. How we serve these two generations of adults with varying interests and values is important to us. We can't be typical for accomplished, capable and empowered grown-ups who know what they want and refuse to settle for less. We won't define them by age, by location, by the things they like to do or the things they may want or need. To us, they are dynamic grown-ups with grown-up agendas and grown-up interests. Lafayette Senior Services is becoming the Lafayette GO! Services to reflect the need to provide GROWN-UP OPPORTUNITIES for both generations that we serve. Through GO! we have the ability to be flexible, to accomodate varying interests, needs and values. So Get to the GO! and connect with the grown-up in you.
