The STAR Center

Staff Training, Activity & Recreation Center

To empower our team to continue delivering high-caliber adventures, we are embarking on a crucial 

project: the new STAR Center. This new, modern Staff Training, Activity & Recreation facility is a 

transformative vision to replace the outdated structure. While customer facilities have been elevated, 

accommodations for our staff have not kept pace. The new STAR Center will provide dedicated 

spaces for their demanding roles, including a place for activity, planning, rest, and rejuvenation.
