Adventure Pass Program Expands with Audubon Rec Center Partnership
February 2nd, 2026 by Ric Hanson
(Atlantic & Audubon, IA) – Officials with “A Community for Kids” and the Atlantic Public Library have announced a new addition to the Adventure Pass program: the Audubon Recreation Center. The partnership, officials say, brings even more opportunities for families to stay active, connect, and create meaningful memories together. Through the new Adventure Pass offering, families can enjoy a free game of bowling for up to six people along with complimentary access to the Audubon Rec Center gym space—all with the use of a library card.
The Audubon Rec Center offers 8 lanes of bowling, featuring cosmic bowling on Friday and Saturday nights. Located within the bowling alley is a soft play area for young children, an arcade, and full service restaurant and bar. Within the same building is a gym space with a walking track and batting cage.
Adventure Passes allow patrons to “check out” experiences just like books, turning ordinary days into extraordinary adventures. Instead of reading a story, families get to live one—laughing together, moving together, and exploring local fun in a way that’s accessible to all. The addition of the Audubon Rec Center strengthens the Adventure Pass mission of removing barriers to family-friendly recreation while supporting local destinations. It’s a win-win: families discover new places to play, and community partners welcome new visitors through the doors.
Adventure Passes are available on a first-come, first-served basis through the Atlantic Public Library. Any adult with a library card in good standing may check out a pass, and families will have seven days to use it after checkout.
A Community for Kids is grateful for the Audubon Rec Center’s commitment to supporting families and enriching the lives of children throughout the area. This exciting new partnership ensures that even more families can bowl, play, and move their way into unforgettable memories.
