A reminder for Greene County Community Center users that the fitness area will be closed for renovations starting tomorrow.
Director Vicky Lautner says Excel Flooring from Jefferson will be replacing the carpet in the fitness area with one half-inch rubber flooring, along with replacing the carpet in the upstairs hallway. The fitness area flooring has never been replaced since the community center opened 18 years ago. Lautner explains the benefits of the new rubber flooring.
“It’s going to be easier to clean. We should be able just to take a mop and a bucket of water and mop it. We won’t be getting the little sweat spots like what we have on the carpet now. It will be a lot easier to clean and sweep around to make sure things are staying nice and tidy up there.”
The fitness area will be closed at 7am on Friday and will reopen at 7am on Tuesday. The equipment will be on the track, so the indoor track will also be closed. The gym will be open for people to walk around. Lautner thanks everyone for their patience while they work on improving the fitness area.
Funding for the project is from the operating budget for the community center.
