The YMCA of Greater High Point operates to impart better health on bodies and minds with myriad programs aimed at adults, youngsters, and senior citizens alike. Both the Hartley Drive YMCA and the Grubb YMCA house fitness centers are packed with ample exercise machinery, from Cybex strength-training equipment to PreCor ellipticals and treadmills, helping patrons aged 12 and older to seize a healthy physique without the hassle of hugging a bodybuilder. For camaraderie-based fitness, Grubb and Hartley host group exercise classes that corral clients of all stripes or cater specifically to kids or seniors. The Hartley gym's facilities further nurture fitness endeavors with an indoor track, two gymnasiums, four racquetball courts, and an indoor 25-meter swimming pool. After a solo or relative-supported workout, guests can hit the on-site locker rooms to freshen up or scoop too-little ones and thumb-sucking spouses from the Child Watch childcare center.

Putt-Putt Fun Center promotes all-ages fun with a combination of exciting outdoor miniature-golf courses and prize-awarding arcade games. Two 18-hole courses let twosomes or foursomes putt for bragging rights while they debate whose genes bred their ball's dimples over the course of two full rounds of mini golf. Putt-Putt Fun Center's entertainment options extend beyond the onomatopoeic, club-swinging action from which the company takes its name, and include an arcade area—where putters can score some digital points—with games such as skee-ball. The center is open all year, giving players ample time to perfect their skills before the closing of the final fiscal quarter demands the public release of putt-putt scores.

The dance floor will draw a crowd as Special Occasion breaks into pop, country, and beach tunes from the '70s to '90s. Big-screen TVs will broadcast that night's games for the NCAA men's basketball tournament. Though not included in this deal, partiers can snack on food from Above & Beyond, or sip on wine, soda, or beer. High Point Area Arts Council sponsors the fete as part of their mission to strengthen the community with cultural events.

The flight crew at Bethany Aviation ascends in Piper Cherokee and Piper Warrior II planes to introduce patrons to the joys of aviation.

The flight package also includes a tour of the airport facilities at Piedmont Triad International Airport, during which visitors explore the pilot lounge and look around the flight-planning room before receiving a photo of themselves with the aircraft to wear in a locket along with their picture of themselves with a toaster.
