New Gym Equipment--Details and Pictures
Our well funded Recreation Reserve Fund has accumulated monies for improvements and replacements of equipment this year according to our Reserve Study done every 3 years. After petitioning many of the frequent users to the gym for opinions of what would be nice to add, we agreed on a stationary bike and a sit down, recumbent eliptical transport.
These two pieces arrived this week, Fri 10-13, along with a new free weight rack and rings to stack the large exercise balls on. All were placed in the gym so they would be in sight line of the tv and there would be plenty of floor space left for stretches and exercises there. The old floor pads were removed (sweat soaked) and users are encouraged to bring their own yoga mats or towels to use for that.
10 windows wiil be covered with a darkening film soon, to keep sun glare and some heat out of the gym. The windows on Silver Ledge side will not need be treated. Only the top half of the windows will be treated with the film, from the window locks up to the top panels. This should be a huge improvement.

As always, be gentle and responsible when using this expensive equipment and keep it clean and in good working order. Any problems, please call Vertex or e mail them to set up service. The gym equipment will be serviced 4 times a year now and the carpet cleaned 2 times a year (it was just cleaned recently). Some old and cumbersome items were removed and a new mat placed under the recumbent bike. A small magazine and radio and personal items rack will be purchased to replace the old deteriorating book case that has been discarded.
Please turn off lights and fans and TV and close windows when leaving the gym.
Enjoy this great facility.
