TV fitness center
What is the gym membership cost
|
I believe the cost is about $380 per year.
|
the better question is why does it cost anything. Golf and tennis are free but the gym costs extra......not cool

Equment cost, trainers, gym personal, if they have a steam or sauna, all maintanance type of equipment. $380 a year is really a value if it is a full service gym. I thought to play golf we paid to drive the course and a monthly fee to maintain? Not being rude just real. Bill :bigbow: |
Yes, I lived in an over 55 community in Wellington, FL. No golf on the premises but Tennis and the fitness center were both free to residents. Why should this matter? Are you implying that this particular activity should not be offered as an amenity? Why?

If you add the costs of the fitness center including all the equipment etc is it more costly than golf course maintenance or tennis or pickleball facilities. I am not talking about "for profit" exercise facilities but those that should be included in our amenity fee. Golf courses, in my opinion, though I am admittedly no expert, cost far more to build and maintain than a gym

I don't know either...I guess that sums it up. I will bring up the sky diving thing at our next district meeting

There are those who would like gym facilities and those who would like an indoor pool and those who would like a large performance facility. When we were looking five years ago, we thought what this place had to offer far outweighed what it did not. There isn't any place we could find that offered more for the very small sum of about 140 dollars a month. In many country club communities up North it costs 50K or more for initiation fees and 700 dollars a month not counting restaurant fees and assessments. I am perfectly happy with what we have and that is a good thing, because it isn't likely things will change. This is a CDD form of government and we don't vote, we suggest. |
How large was the community you came from? I will assume you live here now??? Golf is more attractive to many than a gym facility/facilities might be, I imagine. One probably can play golf for more years than they might be able to use an exercise facility. Golf does offer exercise...one doesn't have to use a golf cart, many do walk the courses. The golf courses around here allow more residents to "play" than gyms. The community can't provide everything for it's residents. There are many other exercise opportunities available around here and in the surrounding communities, but a gym at no charge is not one of them. Does it cost less to build and maintain a gym than building golf courses? I don't think we really know.

It is worthy of discussion. After all, the gym facilities are located in the recreation centers that we pay for with our amenity fees. This is distinctly different than MVP, which is a separate business with a lease that we don't pay for. Not sure how this came to be or what the financial arrangements are with recreation centers.
