In this month's Club Connect we released some exciting news about getting all new Precor and Free Motion selectorized equipment. This is the equipment that is currently located in the first basketball court. We're able to share the logistics now that we have a more definitive timeline.
We have received a few questions about whether or not the layout of the weight floor and the equipment on the first basketball court will go back to the way it was before the shut down, or remain the same. After careful consideration, the decision was made to keep the layout as it is for the foreseeable future. The free weights and racks will remain in the weight floor while the selectorized equipment will remain in the first basketball court. We will also be adding two smaller sets of dumbbells (5-30lb) and a space for stretching in this area as well. The carpet that was put down as temporary flooring will be removed and new rubber tile flooring will be installed before the new equipment is delivered.
On the morning of Wednesday June 23, the equipment on the weight floor will be closed while staff moves them to the second court in order to have the carpet removed and new flooring installed. Removal and installation will take place on June 24 and 25, and the new equipment will be delivered and set up on June 28 and 29. During this time the court will be closed to basketball in order to accommodate the weight equipment transition. We hope to have everything complete and the court back open the evening of June 29.
Since there will now only be one basketball court, a court schedule will be in place offering designated times for full court play. Outside of the designated times, full court play will not be permitted so that we can allow free play by others. The schedule is posted at the entrance of the basketball court and can be viewed on the Schedules page of our website.
