Colgate Plans Bigger Fitness Center Near Pool

Colgate students, faculty, staff and others ought to be twice as fit starting next year as the university is building a new, bigger fitness center on Rte. 12B south near the Lineberry Natatorium (a.k.a.) the pool.

The new fitness center will be about twice the size of the existing Wm. Brian Little Fitness Center in Huntington Gymnasium. That three-story facility covers 9,000 sqare feet. It cost $1.2 million in 1994.

The new fitness center will be located between the pool and Rte, 12B South. It will fill much of the current parking lot in front of the pool; a new lot will be built to the south of it.

With gifts already committed to pay for it, construction for the new fitness center is expected to start shortly. Its anticipated opening is January of next year.
