Description
I have a few suggestions for the Field House in order for sustainable growth in membership!
1. Bigger gym area
2. Plan for sauna, pool, diving boards (this is the biggest improvement that should have been there since day one)
3. League sports (currently there are drop in sports)
4. Squash/Racquetball court
5. Bigger changerooms and more showers
I will be supporting the Field House and they will be needing members and money to grow so if they plan on improving, I plan on being a member!

Has anyone been to the Shaw Centre in Saskatoon? Wow is the word.
It has one Olympic sized pool with lane swimming and diving boards. It has an adult hot tub and a family hot tub. It has a family swimming pool, water slide, and "current-simulated" type area for kids to play in.
I don't even know what they have for activities, gyms and the such, but the place is amazing. I know we don't have the population to purchase such a building, but a pool is necessary. I heard it is in the works, but they need to get on it. People will initially be mad because of the cost, but membership would improve greatly.

I agree there should a pool. But I think it should be done for all. I they followed Regina by example Not Saskatoon they would be doing a great job.(Shaw Center not the best).

Education is the key, be an example to all and bring your own snacks. Teach your kids to stay away from the machines.
PS if you were a diabetic working out and suddenly, for no reason experienced an extreme sugar low, you would be thankful for the fact that there was a coke or a chocolate bar handy to grab and get your sugar back up!!

In reply to KH. Actually I found the Shaw Center to be great. They had almost everything I could ask for.
Please advise what part of the Shaw Center is flawed. I really wish we used it as a model.
Also, jbstallock is right about the types of products and their actual value as a healthy replacement. Coke does make healthy alternatives such as bottled water so I assume there will be some in there soon.
I may be wrong but sports drinks are higher in Electrolytes and that is why they are higher in sodium.

There is a difference between complaining and suggesting.
These are suggestions for improving. As I have already mentioned I planned on supporting the fieldhouse.
Since posting this I have purchased a pass and I am supporting our city. All I am doing is providing suggestions to GROW the member base, an important part in creating the healthy city you speak of.
