Actually, I have no expectations regarding the indoor gymnasium mentioned above.
However......a few years back I lived briefly in Plainfield, IN, a small town (population 28,000) outside of Indianapolis. The Parks and Recreation department there built a wonderful facility for residents which featured both indoor and outdoor pools (2 of each), a large basketball court with retractable backboards where 6 half court games could be played simultaneously. These courts could also be switched over to facilitate indoor volleyball. Above and surrounding the perimeter of these courts was an indoor running/walking track. There was also a large exercise facility with free weights, Nautilus machines, and a large variety of exercise bikes, treadmills, ellipticals and so forth. In addition, there were a number of meeting rooms, some with kitchen facilities to accommodate bithday piarties, special events,etc.
But, as far as I remember, Plainfield did not have a municipal golf course.
My point is simply that almost anything can be accomplished if there are enough people willing to support it.
