As a Birmingham attraction this is a good place to go for family fun. It's educational for the kids and there's a romp area where parents can settle a bit while kids run and play. Parking is free for McWane Center guests. Just bring a small car. The deck is old, and space is a commodity. However, the membership gets you free access to the Science Center and 20% discounts in the cafeteria. For locals and frequent visitors to the Birmingham area, it's hard to beat.
