Como Community Center: Hours, Programs, Rentals & Map

Como Community Center Hours: What the City Currently Lists

The current main facility listing shows the following schedule. Other versions of the same City page have displayed different Tuesday and Saturday opening times.

Regular building hours are not a guarantee of open gym, computer access, fitness-room availability, senior programs or an available rental room. Programs may follow their own schedule.

Facilities & Amenities: What Is Available?

Membership Cards, Day Passes & Identification

The City of Fort Worth requires a community center membership card for participation in programs and open-play activities. Cards may be used at City of Fort Worth community centers and Haws Athletic Center.

2. Check resident, nonresident and age-based pricing.

6. Retain your membership card for check-in.

For a comparison within the same municipal system, our Southwest Community Center Fort Worth membership and admission guide explains the shared City fee structure and separate fitness access rules.

Como Fitness Room: Bronze Tier Explained

Como Community Center is a Bronze Tier fitness facility. Fort Worth categorizes fitness facilities as Bronze, Silver or Gold based on room size and available exercise equipment.

With a Bronze membership, visitors can use qualifying Bronze Tier facilities. Higher-level fitness membership arrangements offer broader access according to City rules.

For an example of a city facility with a different fitness access and admission model, the Matt Dishman Community Center fitness and daily-admission guide explains Portland’s arrangements. Those prices do not apply in Fort Worth.

Youth Programs, After-School Care & Sports

Como Community Center offers supervised recreation opportunities and seasonal programs for school-age children. Some activities are free, while others depend on the City’s registration system.
