Just moved to Longview for 6 months. What gyms are around here? Preferrably close to Judson or McCann and 281.

There are two that I know of...

Parkway is on Bill Owens. Bill Owens is the light with a Exxon, Kelly Moore Paint and what used to be a 7-11. If you head down the road between Exxon and Kelly Moore it will be on your left.

The second one is The Courthouse. It is off the Loop behind Lotus Inn. If you are coming from Mccann keep going until you see a vet hospital, storage units and Sherman Willaims Paint. The road to turn down is right after Sherman Willaims.

I haven't been to either in a long time but when I went Parkway was more of a Adult place and the courthouse was more High School age people in it. I lived right next to the courthouse so i went there all the time. They have a nice weightroom from what i remember and they also have a full basketball court in the middle of the weight room.

I would go and check out each of their montly prices. Good luck and hope this helps.

I thought Parkway closed down?

There is also a meathead gym just off of 4th and Eden. Go South on 4th and take a right on Eden...

It's the old Luby's that was converted into a gym if I remember correctly.

What Macks said. That's where I worked out the last couple of years I lived there. It will be much cheaper than Courthouse plus the worst thing about Courthouse is that it is summertime and that means from June to August it is essentially one HUGE day care center.

youbet, do i know you?

YB would be close to your sister's age... I think he's 2 years older than my bro.

He has a bro two years older than us that you probably know.

Thanks yall. I'll check a couple of them out.

I am Pine Tree '92.

I used to play basketball at the Courthouse when I was in high school. The weightroom is mediocre, but there were always some good players there for basketball on Sunday afternoons.

Just hit up Mack's mom. She'll wear it out.

The Courthouse tends to get a lot of players out around the lunch time. Back when I was going to KC for the summer I used to go over there when I got out of class, roughly 10:30 and play until about 1. There were a couple of doctors and older guys that came and played. There are also any kids from around the area that tend to come in there and play. Been some college players in there in times when I went. So, basically there is some good basketball there somewhat regularly if thats what your looking for. The weight room is ok but it can get cramped in there because its kind small, lifting area wise.
