your Latte to Lose Weight! |

Did
you know that for the same price as a latte from your
favorite coffee shop, you can work out! Trade the 272
calories of a grande latte for admission to Red
Morton Fitness Center! If you buy a pass,
it is even less!
We
have a variety of cardio and exercise equipment to fit
your needs: Treadmills, Free Weights, Exercise Bicycles,
Universal 3 Station mini gym, Elliptical Trainer, Stairmasters,
Ab Trainer, Lockers, Showers, Scale, and a Wall-mounted
color T.V.
Fitness Tip: Parents, sign
your child up for a class, and come work out! |

| Synthetic
Turf Update |
Rain, wind and the holidays only pushed the opening of
the Bechet-Griffin synthetic turf renovation project back
a week. We anticipate that the field will be completed
by mid-January and will be open for play. Sports teams
from all over the City will really enjoy this wonderful
new community asset. Also, two other fields are currently
under construction at Red Morton Park (McGarvey Field
and Mitchell Field) and will also be converted to synthetic
turf. The anticipated opening for these two fields will
be in the Spring.
