Powell Community Center: Hours, Programs, Rentals & Map

Powell Community Center Hours

Pool, gym, Child Watch, pickleball and class schedules are separate from the building hours. The safest approach is to check your intended activity before arrival.

Daily Admission and Membership Fees

The City of Mission updated day-pass charges during 2026. The following rates appear on its current official membership page.

The membership rates below became effective September 1, 2026. Annual prices are for 12-month memberships; monthly pay plans have their own billing conditions.

Proof of Mission residency or qualifying business employment may be needed for discounted rates. Qualifying insurance fitness programs, such as SilverSneakers or Renew Active, may provide additional membership options.

For comparison with another Johnson County public recreation facility offering indoor pools, fitness rooms and Child Watch, see the Matt Ross Community Center guide in Overland Park. Its entry fees and membership terms are set independently.

7-Day Membership Trial: Important Conditions

Powell Community Center advertises a seven-day membership trial for eligible people who would like to test the facilities before committing.

• Available to people age 18 or older with valid photo identification.
• Limited to one trial per household.
• Intended for Kansas City metropolitan-area residents.
• Requires a membership application, waiver and payment authorization.
• Provides access to fitness, pools, courts, amenities and group fitness classes during the trial.

To start, visit the entry desk at 6200 Martway Street or call 913-722-8200.

Indoor Pool, Lazy River, Waterslide & Spa

The Powell Community Center indoor aquatic area operates year-round and includes a three-lane lap pool, leisure area, lazy river, mushroom water feature, slide, hot tub, dry sauna and steam room.

Pool Activity Rules and Times

For families comparing other indoor aquatic facilities, the Bob Crane Community Center pool, fitness and activity guide provides a separate example of how aquatic zones, gyms and class schedules work at a municipal recreation complex.

Sports, Fitness & Pickleball

Published Pickleball Schedule

The City publishes overlapping Sunday court blocks, so confirm the correct court allocation before relying on those hours. Scheduled leagues, reservations and tournaments can also change drop-in availability.

Volleyball and Leagues

Open volleyball is listed for ages 14 and older, Monday and Wednesday 7–9 PM and Sunday 1–3 PM. The published men’s basketball league fee is $500 per team and co-ed volleyball is $250 per team; these are program prices, not daily admission charges.

Check the current official sports schedule before attending, especially if you need an available court rather than an organized league.

Child Watch: Ages, Fees & Schedule

Child Watch provides short-duration supervised care while an eligible parent or guardian uses the recreation center.

Child Watch is different from a public indoor playground or an all-day childcare service. For an explanation of those differences at another recreation center, our community recreation center family and activity guide covers the questions parents should check before visiting.

Programs for Youth, Adults & Ages 50+

Mission Parks + Recreation offers seasonal programs that range from youth swimming and sports to adult wellness, recreation and learning activities.

Classes can be purchased individually or through eligible admission and FitPass options. Some sessions have limited space, separate fees or registration deadlines.

How to Register for Classes or Buy Membership

1. Choose your goal. Decide between a one-time visit, monthly membership, annual membership, group class, swim lesson or youth program.
2. Review the current City listing. Open the official Powell Community Center membership or Parks + Recreation programs page.
3. Enter the registration platform. Open the City’s Mission Recreation online system at missionks.myrec.com.
4. Create or access your account. Enter the participant or household details requested by the platform.
5. Select the correct product. Check resident/nonresident fees, age range, program dates, available spaces and membership conditions.
6. Read payment and refund rules. Monthly memberships, trials, classes and camps may have different billing or cancellation policies.
7. Complete the official checkout. Save your confirmation and transaction record.
8. Confirm your first visit. Ask whether an ID, waiver, orientation, equipment or check-in process is needed.

Rental Spaces: Gyms, Meetings, Parties & Events

Powell Community Center offers sports courts, conference rooms, multipurpose space and event rentals. The City also handles bookings at the nearby Mission Family Aquatic Center and outdoor park shelters, which are separate facilities.

Published Rental Price Examples

These are specific published booking-system examples, not a price list for every possible rental configuration. The City’s reservation system describes security deposits as refundable after a completed event under applicable conditions, but not refundable when the renter cancels.

Booking Steps

1. Decide whether you need a court, conference room, multipurpose room, party room or another space.
2. Estimate guest count and choose the preferred date and total reservation time.
3. Include decorating, setup and cleanup in your reservation window.
4. Review the official rental inquiry page.
5. Contact the Rental Coordinator at 913-722-8215 or nlucas@missionks.org.
6. Confirm availability, hourly charges, deposit, setup fees, equipment and applicable restrictions.
7. Complete the required paperwork and official payment to finalize the reservation.

For a practical comparison of party-room, gym, pool and conference rental formats, consult our Matt Dishman Community Center rentals and pool guide. It covers Portland, Oregon, so none of its fees apply to Mission.

Rules, Age Requirements & Safety

Some of the most important conditions are activity-specific. The City publishes the following facility rules and eligibility information:

• Visitors generally must have membership, daily admission or approved program/event access.
• Children younger than 12 require appropriate supervision; City materials describe a responsible accompanying person age 16 or older in its FAQ and conduct policy.
• Fitness equipment and track use have age restrictions. Young participants may require orientation or supervision.
• The indoor waterslide has a 48-inch minimum height requirement.
• Hot tub, sauna and steam room use is for visitors age 14 or older.
• Wear suitable athletic clothing and closed-heel, closed-toe footwear in fitness areas.
• Food, gum and open drinks are restricted in workout, court, track and pool areas.
• Only authorized Powell Community Center trainers may provide paid or organized personal training within the facility.

Powell Community Center Map & Directions

Powell Community Center is in Mission, a Johnson County suburb within the Kansas City metropolitan area. Search the full Martway Street address in your navigation app rather than using a broad “Powell Community Center near me” result.

For swimming, gym visits, Child Watch or events, arrive early enough to complete admission and locate the correct activity area. If you need accessible parking, a particular entrance or event unloading, call the center for current instructions.
