Georgetown Recreation Center Grand Opening on January 31
January 6th, 2009 by Jill Kellum, Parks Administration
The City celebrates the Grand Opening of the new Recreation Center on Saturday, January 31. Ceremonies start at 10 a.m. followed by facility tours and demonstrations. Memberships also will be on sale at the Grand Opening. Regular use of the facility begins on Monday, February 2.
The new center features an indoor pool, a new aerobics room, and an outdoor splash pool that will open for the summer swim season. Other features at the new 65,000 square-foot center include weight and cardio areas, a multi-purpose room for martial arts and other classes, a spinning area, and a larger babysitting room with access to an outdoor playground. The existing center will be renovated this spring to become a teen and senior activity area.
Funding for the new Recreation Center was approved by the voters in a bond election in November 2004. The Recreation Center is located at 1003 N. Austin Avenue.
