I don’t know if the monthly single fee has gone up. It was or is about $45. I’m not sure. I don’t go often enough to make that pay for itself.

What the fitness center offers is so important for your health. If you pay for one month, maybe you will be motivated to get there more often and get the health benefits. The day pass at many gyms is now $20. We buy the 3 month package and we consider it a great value. You can use any of the 7 fitness rooms. Sometimes we go to Seabreeze which has all new equipment. Once in a while, Mulberry. The older you are, the more you need strength training.
