Our Facility
Major facility construction financial sponsors were the Wong Family (Bel Air Supermarkets), Wing Kai, and Chee Fat. The land was donated by Angelo Tsakopoulos. The 12,000 square foot facility, built in 2007, serves as a venue for our youth programs, fundraisers, and indoor sports (basketball, volleyball, and pickleball). The full commercial kitchen enables large and small food-based events. Ample parking is available.
Recently, the entire audio-visual system was upgraded to meet the demands of groups seeking fulfillment of the best experience possible. The grounds, parking area, and the interior and exterior of the building are well maintained. Our physical presence on Laguna Boulevard in Elk Grove is a source of pride to the community.
