WELLNESS ROOM REMINDERS – The Wellness committee would like to remind everyone who uses the wellness room to not wear their street shoes to work out or when using any of the equipment. Please abide by the wellness rules and bring another pair of shoes in. The amount of salt and sand that is used during this time of year really takes a toll on the equipment when street shoes are worn. Replacing belts and other parts is expensive; and if this continues, we may have to look at raising the cost of memberships. Also, there have been reports of damage to items in the wellness room. Please be respectful of all property!!
Due to road conditions and dangerous wind chill, the Menno School District will open 2 hours late tomorrow, January 18th. Classes will begin at 10:15 and breakfast will not be available. Thank you.
