The exercise room will work out.
Moose Javians should look upon the proposed multiplex fitness area with both optimism and excitement.
A multiplex fitness centre is simply a natural fit for the soccer facility, which along with the walking track will offer a variety of exercise options for Moose Jaw. A fitness centre simply completes that healthy-living package.
With the indoor walking track, the soccer facility will probably be a big draw for senior citizens during poor weather (which is often in Saskatchewan) and, likewise, the multiplex fitness centre could be a popular site for elderly looking for a complete workout in the convenience of one indoor location.
Likely, the multiplex will offer a service appealing to certain demographics, while private fitness centres and the YMCA continue to have their own client bases. Many people prefer the professional services and convenience of existing fitness centres.
The most important thing about the multiplex is access to healthy activities for the citizenry and a exercise room helps in achieving that end. Hopefully, the positive results of the multiplex brings relief and a surprisingly unexpected smile to its critics.
The prospect of a healthier Friendly City is certainly something for which everyone should feel pride.
