A Clinton non-profit is excited about the last leg of a recent facility update that should start in the next few weeks.
On the WHOW Morning Show Monday, Rennie Cluver, Executive Director of the Clinton YMCA told Regional Radio the facility anticipates the gymnasium floor to be replaced starting Monday, April 3.
According to Cluver, all the improvements are going to bring a new dynamic of possibilities for Y programming. He envisions a reduced burden of asking the school district for its facilities and increasing adult opportunities.
Cluver notes the cost has been pretty reasonable on the project despite the continued reports of increasing costs of supplies and materials for other sectors.
Cluver reminds this project was made possible thanks to grant dollars DeWitt County made available through the American Rescue Plan Act funds.
Once the gym project wraps up, the YMCA's strategic planning committee will begin to look at the rest of the facility and where they could improve next. Cluver notes they could target making the flooring across the main level more uniform. He says they could use updated cardio equipment in the wellness center.
Cluver notes they are targeting the first week of April for the installation because there will be Y-Zone Extreme next week as it is spring break in the school district so there will be students in the gym at that time.
