FACILITY UPDATES 

 We are continuing to improve and upgrade our fitness center with the addition of three new state of the art treadmills equipped with personal televisions.  We expect delivery by February 28th.

 

We've completed the second part of the $25,000 electric retrofit program where we are replacing every light fixture in the facility with more energy efficient ones.  The first phase was completed last year when we installed 102 fixtures with new energy efficient ballasts.  This phase we retro-fitted the fixtures to give off the same amount of light with two bulbs instead of the original three bulbs.  We also replaced all the exit signs with new LED fixtures.  Still to come is the replace the pool lights.  We are currently awaiting the required Dept of Health approval of our plans before we can proceed.  We hope to complete this project by the summer.
