At The Grove, we believe a great club should be just as fun for kids as it is for parents. That’s why we created The Hangout, a vibrant, safe, and engaging space where children can learn, play, and make friends — all while parents enjoy the club’s amenities worry-free.

Designed with Kids (and Parents) In Mind

We designed The Hangout to not just feel like a drop-off zone. We wanted it to feel like a community designed especially for kids. With dedicated spaces for younger and older age groups, The Hangout keeps every child engaged through a mix of creative activities, sports, and social play. From crafts and games to themed parties and full-day camps, every visit offers something new to discover.

Safe, Supervised, and Certified

Parents can relax knowing their children are in good hands. The Hangout is operated in partnership with Soccer Stars of South Jacksonville, a nationally recognized youth development program known for blending fitness, fun, and confidence-building. All coaches are fully background-checked and certified in child development — so every child is supported by trained professionals who care as much as you do.

Video-based security with private parent access adds another layer of peace of mind, ensuring a safe, secure environment for all.

Flexible Options for Every Family

The Hangout was designed with modern families in mind. Members can choose from flexible monthly packages or drop-in rates that fit their schedules — whether it’s a few hours during dinner or regular weekly visits.

Unlimited Plan for frequent guests
15-Hour Packages with flexible use over six or twelve months
Sibling Discounts to make family fun even more affordable

Special events and full-day camps on school holidays add extra excitement throughout the year. And even non-members can join on select camp days or when visiting with a member — so friends can get in on the fun, too!

A Day at The Hangout

Picture this: you drop your kids off for a morning of soccer, crafts, and new friendships while you enjoy a workout, brunch, or a game of pickleball. A few hours later, you return to find smiling faces, art projects in hand, and stories about their favorite coach. That’s The Hangout experience — giving parents a little freedom and kids a lot of fun.
